Givens' effective outing, Wynns' early work, Hess' start and more

Givens' effective outing, Wynns' early work, Hess' start and more
The high-leverage situations continue to find Orioles reliever Mychal Givens. Just not in the ninth inning. Maybe they should be considered lower high-leverage. Givens stepped on the mound last night with a runner on base in the seventh, one out and Evan Longoria representing the tying run. Longoria struck out on a changeup. Brandon Crawford struck out on a 96 mph fastball. An entire ballpark exhaled. Manager Brandon Hyde let Givens leave on a high note after a third batter, with Kevin Pillar...

Orioles rally from five runs down in first to win 9-6 (updated)

Orioles rally from five runs down in first to win 9-6 (updated)
The first inning tonight lasted 45 minutes. The teams combined for 11 runs, 19 batters and three errors. The starting pitchers threw a combined 90 pitches. And then it got weird. Former Orioles farmhand Mike Yastrzemski marked his first game at Camden Yards with his first major league triple and home run through two innings. Dwight Smith Jr. hit his first career grand slam in a six-run first and Trey Mancini launched a tie-breaking two-run shot in the second after Jonathan Villar stole two...

Hyde on missing Saturday game, draft, Yaz (O's lead 9-6)

Hyde on missing Saturday game, draft, Yaz (O's lead 9-6)
Orioles manager Brandon Hyde will miss Saturday afternoon's game in order to attend his step-daughter Aria's high school graduation in Illinois. He's boarding a flight to Chicago in the morning and getting back to Baltimore for Sunday's series finale. Tim Cossins, field coordinator and catching instructor, will replace Hyde, as he did on April 15 after his close friend was ejected from a game in Boston for arguing the slide rule. "We've gone over some stuff, and after BP we're going to...

Elias talks about the upcoming amateur draft

Elias talks about the upcoming amateur draft
Orioles executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias indicated this afternoon that the club has narrowed its list of choices to four players for the first-overall pick in the First-Year Player Draft that begins Monday. Elias won't mention any names, but three of those players certainly are Oregon State catcher Adley Rutschman, prep shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. and University of California first baseman Andrew Vaughn. More of the organization's scouts will gather this weekend in the...

Better bullpen needed to begin beating teams

Better bullpen needed to begin beating teams
A rested bullpen didn't provide a solution for Orioles manager Brandon Hyde, who failed again Wednesday night to unearth a late-inning combination that could protect the slimmest of leads. Hyde used only three relievers over the previous two games. Dan Straily ate four innings Monday after following starter Gabriel Ynoa, and Dylan Bundy worked through the seventh the following night. Two ways for a club to avoid taxing its 'pen. So what did Hyde get for it? Another blown save on Wednesday,...

This, that and the other

This, that and the other
The Orioles have reached their first non-weather-related day off since May 9. They had back-to-back postponements in the Bronx but still reported to the ballpark and waited for the inevitable announcement. At least the second one came much quicker, with an ominous forecast sending everyone back to the hotel. Twenty games in a row were stretched across the schedule before today's breather. "Needed," said manager Brandon Hyde. "I think everybody's looking forward to it. It's been quite a...

Givens, Kline yield late home runs in 4-2 loss (updated)

Givens, Kline yield late home runs in 4-2 loss (updated)
Orioles left-hander John Means must hear the All-Star talk and wonder if he's restricted to endorsing a candidate rather than being seen as one. Means set a career high tonight with seven strikeouts while holding the Tigers to one run and three hits in six innings. He mixed his pitches, he showed the usual composure. And he did his part to lead the Orioles to a rare series win. You can lead a team there, but the bullpen has to ensure that it happens. Keon Broxton hit his first home run at...

Davis provides update on hip injury (plus other notes, tied 2-2)

Davis provides update on hip injury (plus other notes, tied 2-2)
Chris Davis said earlier today that his left hip is feeling better and he should be able to play when he's eligible to return from the 10-day injured list. The Orioles put Davis on the IL retroactive to Saturday with left hip inflammation. He doesn't anticipate needing a rehab assignment in the minors, though he hasn't received an at-bat since going 0-for-3 Thursday with three strikeouts and a walk. "I feel pretty good," Davis said. "I'm actually about to start moving around and doing...

Mancini on the "tremendous honor" he's trying to ignore

Mancini on the "tremendous honor" he's trying to ignore
Voting is underway for the 2019 All-Star Game that's slated for July 9 at Progressive Field in Cleveland, and outfielder Trey Mancini appears to be a virtual lock to represent the Orioles, a perception that he tunes out like hostile crowd noise. There isn't a more obvious choice than Mancini, who impresses with his average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, power and run production. It's hard to pick apart any aspect of his offensive game when lined up against his teammates. So, it's...

Stewart's three hits a highlight for Orioles in 3-0 loss (with quotes)

Stewart's three hits a highlight for Orioles in 3-0 loss (with quotes)
The reception for DJ Stewart tonight in his first at-bat of the season didn't force the young outfielder to choke back tears. Polite applause accompanied him to the plate. Nothing that would cause a player to step out of the box and gather himself. Stewart was recalled earlier in the day from Triple-A Norfolk, a popular move judging by the reaction on social media, if not in the stands. But the cheering increased in volume as he grounded a single into right field in the second inning and again...

Hyde on Stewart, Givens and driving the Mancini bus (O's down 3-0)
Orioles manager Brandon Hyde intends to give DJ Stewart an extended look after the Orioles called up the outfielder earlier today from Triple-A Norfolk. Stewart is starting tonight in right field and also will move over to left, "and we'll see how it goes," Hyde said. "This is a position player who's going to get a lot of everyday at-bats. I think DJ is a part of the future and I think DJ is somebody who's going to swing the bat well. I just don't want to put too much pressure on him....

Orioles recall DJ Stewart

Orioles recall DJ Stewart
The Orioles have found a spot for outfielder DJ Stewart, rewarding him for an extended hot stretch at the plate by recalling him today from Triple-A Norfolk. Stewart, 25, replaces reliever Evan Phillips, who was optioned yesterday following a 5-3 win over the Tigers. Stewart was batting .316/.425/.586 with 13 doubles, two triples, eight home runs and 35 RBIs in 43 games. He slashed .456/.512/.882 in 19 games this month, with 10 doubles, two triples, five home runs and 27 RBIs. Today could mark...

Stacking up the Orioles' trade chips and where Givens fits

Stacking up the Orioles' trade chips and where Givens fits
With each failed outing by Orioles reliever Mychal Givens, fan reaction tends to be divided in equal parts frustration over a bungled lead and the loss in value of one of the club's largest trade chips. Is Givens really hurting the front office's ability to negotiate a deal, if that's what it wants to do? Givens just turned 29 and is under team control until he reaches free agency in 2022. He's averaging 11.5 strikeouts per nine innings, just a hair under his career high of 11.6 in 2016,...

Orioles and Tigers lineups
Gabriel Ynoa makes his first start in two years today as the Orioles begin their three-game series against the Tigers at Camden Yards. This could turn into a bullpen game with Ynoa unlikely to work into the later innings. Dan Straily is available in relief and could back him up now that they've switched roles. Ynoa has never faced the Tigers or anyone on the current roster. Trey Mancini starts at first base today. Hanser Alberto is back in the leadoff slot and playing third. Stevie Wilkerson...

Is DJ Stewart's time approaching?

Is DJ Stewart's time approaching?
DENVER - Orioles executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias mentioned last week that Triple-A Norfolk outfielder DJ Stewart was on the club's radar, based on the first-round pick's scorching bat. However, he included the complication of trying to fit Stewart on the roster as a corner outfielder. The Orioles have a wealth of them. Putting first baseman Chris Davis on the injured list with left hip inflammation could open the door for Stewart, who's already on the 40-man roster...

Hyde, Givens and Hess talk about Orioles' 8-7 loss
DENVER - The situations line up properly. The matchups unfold as Orioles manager Brandon Hyde envisions them. And then chaos ensues and he's left to wonder again about the composition of his pitching staff and praise a team for resiliency that's tested to the limit. The Orioles came within two outs of a rare series win, but the feel-good comeback was followed again by a violent gut punch. A bases-loaded walk from struggling closer Mychal Givens ties the game in the bottom of the ninth inning...

Davis might be headed to injured list (Davis on IL, O's lose 8-7)
DENVER - The Orioles are prepared to make a roster move today involving first baseman Chris Davis. Manager Brandon Hyde said Davis has been bothered by hip soreness. Davis was examined last night and unavailable for a 9-6 win over the Rockies, which included Rio Ruiz playing first base in the ninth inning. Davis wasn't in the dugout or inside the clubhouse after the game. Hyde finished his session with the media this morning and headed inside to check on Davis before making a...
