Machado leads AL shortstops in All-Star voting

Machado leads AL shortstops in All-Star voting
Orioles shortstop Manny Machado is engulfed in trade rumors and speculation as the non-waiver deadline draws nearer. He's already on the move in the American League's All-Star balloting, rising to the top at his position. Machado has received 321,887 votes to lead the Indians' Francisco Lindor, who's second with 211,756. The Yankees' Didi Gregorius is third with 208,583. None of Machado's teammates appear in the first balloting update. No one in the top five at the other positions or the...

Hess hoping to halt losing streak and solve Sox

Hess hoping to halt losing streak and solve Sox
David Hess will test his memory tonight, along with his ability to make any adjustments that can prevent a repeat performance. The rookie's only major league dud came against tonight's opponent, the Red Sox, in his first exposure to Fenway Park and one of baseball's most potent offenses. He surrendered three home runs and five runs total in 4 2/3 innings and absorbed his first loss. We're going all the way back to May 20, when Hess followed up his stellar debut with an outing that left his...

Orioles waste Bundy's latest gem in 2-0, 12-inning loss (updated)

Orioles waste Bundy's latest gem in 2-0, 12-inning loss (updated)
The later sunset must have tricked Dylan Bundy into thinking that he was working a day game. The night version hasn't been nearly as effective this season, with Bundy sporting a 7.68 ERA and 1.706 WHIP in seven starts heading into the series opener against the Red Sox. Meanwhile, the pitcher who's earned the moniker "Sunny" carried a 1.08 ERA and 0.888 WHIP in six early outings. Putting aside that first pitch was 7:06 p.m., Bundy shut out the Red Sox tonight on three hits through eight...

Machado is sick and Britton is back

Machado is sick and Britton is back
The Red Sox activated outfielder Mookie Betts from the disabled list today instead of sending him on an injury rehab assignment. The Orioles lineup is missing shortstop Manny Machado, who's battling an illness. Such is life for the teams residing in opposite ends of the division. Machado is the latest Orioles player to be felled by whatever is going around the clubhouse. Danny Valencia returned to the lineup tonight after missing yesterday's game in Toronto. "Manny's sick, as are a lot of...

Araujo placed on disabled list with elbow injury

Araujo placed on disabled list with elbow injury
The Orioles have placed reliever Pedro Araujo on the 10-day disabled list with a right elbow sprain and activated closer Zach Britton. Araujo underwent an MRI earlier today after complaining of elbow soreness following yesterday's outing in Toronto, when he served up two home runs in one inning and was charged with four runs. His ERA rose to 7.71 and his WHIP to 1.679 in 20 appearances over 28 innings. As a Rule 5 pick, Araujo must spend 90 days on the active roster before the Orioles (19-45)...

Illness keeping Machado out of Orioles lineup

Illness keeping Machado out of Orioles lineup
Manny Machado is out of the Orioles lineup tonight due to an illness that's sweeping through the clubhouse. Danny Valencia didn't play yesterday because he was sick. Machado is just the latest player to come down with it. "This is a tough one," said manager Buck Showalter, noting how the illness seems to "linger." "A number of guys have different degrees of it. Different stages." Did today provide Showalter with the chance to think about what it's like to not write Machado's name in...

Orioles lineup doesn't include Machado (updated)
Manny Machado is missing from the Orioles' lineup for tonight's series opener against the Red Sox at Camden Yards. Jace Peterson is playing shortstop and batting ninth. Joey Rickard is leading off and playing right field. Danny Valencia was sick yesterday and didn't play, but returns tonight as the cleanup hitter. Chris Davis did some early hitting today and is batting seventh. The Orioles haven't announced a roster move, but closer Zach Britton said he's excited to be coming off the...

How will Orioles fit Britton in their bullpen and on the roster?

How will Orioles fit Britton in their bullpen and on the roster?
The Orioles swept a two-game series against the Mets at Citi Field and led the Blue Jays 4-1 with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning at Rogers Centre. I foolishly let myself believe that they were getting on a roll with three straight wins, that they might move into a more respectable neighborhood. Brad Brach blew the save and the Jays walked off in the 10th against Miguel Castro to point them toward a four-game sweep and another soul crushing moment in the 2018 season. Darren O'Day...

Orioles and Blue Jays lineups

Orioles and Blue Jays lineups
Chris Davis is back in the Orioles lineup today for the series finale against the Blue Jays. Davis is batting sixth against right-hander Marco Estrada. Jace Peterson is leading off. Mark Trumbo is in the cleanup spot. Joey Rickard is in right field. Orioles starters have five quality starts in five games on the road trip and they've posted a 2.27 ERA, but a .190 team average is mainly responsible for a 2-3 record. Nine quality starts have been registered over the past 10 games, but the Orioles...

Does Davis stay on the bench today?

Does Davis stay on the bench today?
Orioles manager Buck Showalter waited until about an hour before first pitch yesterday to reveal his lineup. The right decision was made regarding Chris Davis. Whether it came from Davis or Showalter. Davis needed to sit again no matter his track record against Blue Jays starter Aaron Sanchez. The .348 career average in 23 at-bats was meaningless. The only reason to pause was Sanchez's difficulties versus left-handed hitters, who posted a .304 average against him. Davis isn't the same...

O'Day activated and Scott optioned (plus lineups)

O'Day activated and Scott optioned (plus lineups)
The Orioles have activated reliever Darren O'Day from the disabled list and optioned left-hander Tanner Scott to Triple-A Norfolk. They're keeping a four-man bench and seven-man bullpen. O'Day hasn't pitched for the Orioles since May 4 in Oakland. He went on the DL with a hyperextended right elbow, the result of a mishap in the bullpen, where a teammate accidentally ran into him while he stretched. O'Day is 0-1 with a 3.77 ERA and 0.977 WHIP in 13 appearances. He's allowed six earned runs...

Gausman trying to keep the quality coming while bats stay cold

Gausman trying to keep the quality coming while bats stay cold
The starting pitching isn't really the issue. Andrew Cashner's quality start last night in Toronto was the Orioles' fourth straight on the current road trip and the eighth in the last nine games. But they were held to one run in a 5-1 loss, the latest adjustments to the lineup failing to create a spark. Kevin Gausman has fallen short of the quality line in his last two attempts since shutting out the White Sox in 6 1/3 innings on May 22. He allowed seven runs in 2 2/3 innings against the...

Orioles lineup doesn't include Davis
The offensive funk that followed Chris Davis into the 2018 season won't leave him. It's wrapped around him like a scarf. Davis went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts last night in Toronto and is batting .152/.232/.232 with four doubles, four home runs, 15 RBIs and nine runs scored in 220 plate appearances. He's drawn 19 walks and struck out 81 times. The Orioles are facing a left-hander tonight, J.A. Happ, as their series continues in Toronto and Davis is on the bench. Trey Mancini moves to...

A little bullpen banter

A little bullpen banter
As Zach Britton moves closer to his 2018 debut with the Orioles, his removal from the disabled list anticipated for June 15, the curiosity is how manager Buck Showalter will use him right out of the gate. Should he ease Britton back into the ninth inning rather than call upon the left-hander right away to record the last three outs and protect a slim lead? Is it wiser to give him, say, the sixth or seventh inning in those initial appearances? It's a question that Showalter has posed to the...

Austin Wynns is behind the plate for the Orioles again tonight while they face Blue Jays left-hander Jaime García to start a four-game series in Toronto.

Chris Davis is batting seventh as the only left-handed hitter in the lineup. Craig Gentry is playing right field. The Orioles are 8-12 against...

Latest update on Britton

Latest update on Britton
Orioles closer Zach Britton continues to move forward in his recovering from right Achilles surgery, the steps widening in length as he completes a rehab assignment. Britton spun another scoreless inning this afternoon for Triple-A Norfolk, allowing one hit and striking out one batter in Columbus. He hasn't surrendered a run in four combined appearances with the Tides, Single-A Frederick and Double-A Bowie. The weather and affiliate schedules have forced Britton to move around, but he's been...

This, that and the other
A rainout and scheduled off-day have messed again with David Hess' usual routine, though he's beginning to settle into the abnormal. The rookie was working on seven days' rest when he followed up his major league debut with a start against the Red Sox at Fenway Park. He hasn't pitched since May 30 against the Nationals, when he recorded his third quality start in four outings. Manager Buck Showalter pushed back his starters this week with the team idle on Sunday and Monday. Never hurts to...

Orioles win second road series with 1-0 victory (with quotes)

Orioles win second road series with 1-0 victory (with quotes)
FLUSHING, N.Y. - Fans came to Citi Field today to watch a baseball game and a pillow fight broke out. The starting pitching was on point or the offenses were out of sync again. It's not as though the Orioles and Mets have been lighting up scoreboards across the country. But dim the sarcasm, because Dylan Bundy and Zach Wheeler were dealing. Both pitchers carried shutouts through the seventh inning, but the Mets brought in reliever Jeurys Familia in the eighth and the Orioles manufactured the...

O'Day staying on rehab assignment for another game (O's up 1-0)
FLUSHING, N.Y. - Orioles reliever Darren O'Day will stay with Single-A Frederick and pitch again on Thursday in Potomac. He could be activated a few days later. O'Day walked three batters last night in two-thirds of an inning and was charged with three runs after he left the game. "He felt good," said manager Buck Showalter. "One of them (walks) wasn't. He's going to have at least one more outing. But he felt good. Obviously, his command was off a little bit, but he felt good. "He's...

Danny Valencia moves down to seventh in the order, one spot behind Chris Davis. Jose Bautista is 0-for-8 with six strikeouts against Dylan Bundy. Bundy is 2-1 with a 1.30 ERA and 0.894 WHIP in five day starts this season. Last night's win was the first for the Orioles in Queens since June 17, 2006 at Shea Stadium. The Mets have...
