Orioles lineup vs. Tigers

Orioles lineup vs. Tigers
Craig Gentry gets the start in right field tonight and Jace Peterson remains the No. 2 hitter as the Orioles begin their three-game series against the Tigers at overcast but dry Camden Yards. Caleb Joseph is catching starter Chris Tillman. Tillman lowered his ERA from 11.91 to 9.87 in his last start, when he allowed four runs in six innings in a 4-0 loss to the Indians. He walked only one batter, but also surrendered three solo home runs. Tillman is 6-1 with a 3.12 ERA and 1.121 WHIP in 10...

Because You Asked - "Dark Territory"

Because You Asked - "Dark Territory"
A really bad start to a season can fill up a mailbag faster than a prolonged winning streak. Discontent provides lots of content. I'm bombarded with the same inquiries about job security. Not mine, though I'm sure it's also going to come up. I'm just hoping it's not from one of my bosses. You ask, I answer, you ask again, I try to answer again without being a jerk. It's a 50-50 proposition. Love a good sequel? Tolerate a bad one? You decide what's in front of you this morning. Any chance...

Bundy unable to stop bleeding as Orioles lose 9-5 (with quotes)

Bundy unable to stop bleeding as Orioles lose 9-5 (with quotes)
It's gotten so bad that Dylan Bundy tied his career high tonight with seven earned runs allowed in 4 2/3 innings. Eight runs total to go with 11 hits. And back-to-back losses resulted to the fourth-place Rays. How can the Orioles escape this pit of misery? Bundy has been carrying the ladder, but he couldn't take the necessary steps tonight. The Rays led two batters into the game, scored twice in each of the first three innings and defeated the Orioles 9-5 before an announced crowd of 9,596 at...

Showalter updates Beckham surgery (O's down 8-4)

Showalter updates Beckham surgery (O's down 8-4)
With Tim Beckham undergoing core muscle surgery today, the Orioles will begin the process of getting him back to full health while figuring out the most effective method to compensate for his absence. Danny Valencia remains at third base tonight and Jace Peterson is starting at second. Peterson was moving around the infield before batting practice, taking grounders at third and simulating tag plays at second. Beckham is expected to miss six to seven weeks after his procedure in Philadelphia,...

Beckham undergoes surgery (and other notes)

Beckham undergoes surgery (and other notes)
Tim Beckham underwent core muscle surgery today in Philadelphia and he's projected to be out for six to seven weeks, leaving the Orioles without half of their starting infield. Beckham is expected back at Camden Yards on Friday to begin rehabbing. He'll walk with head athletic trainer Brian Ebel and gradually increase activities. Manager Buck Showalter said Beckham had surgery "on both sides." "He's resting as comfortably as he can be," Showalter said. Second baseman Jonathan Schoop will...

Peterson's pigskin performance proved positive

Peterson's pigskin performance proved positive
The versatility that Jace Peterson brings to the Orioles extends further than your typical utility player. He can start at any position except catcher and also blitz the opposing pitcher if given the signal. Steal a base, sack a starter. Just turn him loose. He'll figure it out. Baseball wasn't the extent of Peterson's athletic prowess at McNeese State. Besides setting the school record for stolen bases with 78 in three seasons, he also was a defensive back/linebacker on the football...

Cobb can't hold lead and Orioles fall again 8-4 (updated)

Cobb can't hold lead and Orioles fall again 8-4 (updated)
We'll never know how Alex Cobb would have responded this year to a normal spring training. To the usual progression from bullpens to exhibition games to opening day if he hadn't waited until March 21 to sign with the Orioles. Cobb's third start tonight had a rough beginning and finish, the end coming with two outs in the top of the fifth inning and a lead up in smoke as a light rain fell at Camden Yards. The Rays scored four runs off Cobb before Miguel Castro replaced him, and Jace...

Showalter on Beckham, Trumbo and Peterson (O's down 8-4)
The tarp has come off the Camden Yards field about three hours after the grounds crew unrolled it. A much better forecast for tonight's game. The Orioles are waiting for Tim Beckham to make a final decision on whether to undergo surgery after they placed him on the disabled list today with a left groin strain. Beckham saw Dr. William Meyers earlier today in Philadelphia - the sports hernia specialist who repaired a torn muscle in Nick Markakis' abdomen in January 2012. A similar procedure on...

Beckham could undergo surgery (and other notes)
The Orioles could be without third baseman Tim Beckham for a much longer period than the minimum 10 days of his assignment on the disabled list. Beckham saw a specialist today in Philadelphia and is expected to undergo surgery, perhaps by Thursday morning, after the Orioles put him on the DL with a strained left groin. Beckham is weighing his options, which would include rehabbing the injury. The procedure apparently would be similar to sports hernia surgery, but little information has filtered...

Weather postpones latest attempt to bust out of slump

Weather postpones latest attempt to bust out of slump
More cooperative weather tonight will force the Orioles to again confront their slumping offense. They can run, but they can't hide. The Orioles have registered a .215 average that was tied with the Indians for last in the majors before last night. They've scored 19 runs in 10 home games, the lowest total in baseball. I always thought Camden Yards was supposed to be a hitters' park. The Indians and Twins were tied for 28th with 28 runs scored in eight home games. The Yankees were first with...

More on Beckham, Peterson and injury-related notes (updated)
With tonight's postponement due to inclement weather, the Orioles likely will push back Alex Cobb to Wednesday night and Dylan Bundy to Thursday night.

Update: Cobb starts Wednesday and Bundy Thursday. It's confirmed. The Rays will start Jake Faria on Wednesday and Chris Archer on Thursday. The latter spot had been listed as TBD. The...

Beckham undergoing MRI (tonight's game postponed)
The tarp is on the field at Camden Yards and showers are headed this way. The Orioles must prepare as if they're playing the Rays tonight in the opener of a three-game series. However, they're also withholding certain roster decisions while braced for a postponement. Third baseman Tim Beckham is undergoing an MRI and figures to go on the disabled list later tonight if the teams are able to play. He's currently active and listed among the reserves. The Orioles could recall Engelb Vielma from...

Orioles claim Jace Peterson off waivers

Orioles claim Jace Peterson off waivers
The Orioles addressed their need for infield depth this afternoon by claiming utility player Jace Peterson off waivers from the Yankees. Peterson will report to the club on Wednesday. In the meantime, pitcher Gabriel Ynoa has been transferred to the 60-day disabled list to create room on the 40-man roster. Infielder Tim Beckham is expected to go on the 10-day disabled list with a groin injury. He would join second baseman Jonathan Schoop, who's sidelined with a strained right oblique....

Vielma replacement for Beckham if DL move is necessary

Vielma replacement for Beckham if DL move is necessary
The Orioles are preparing to put infielder Tim Beckham on the 10-day disabled list while another injury strikes the roster. Infielder Engelb Vielma is headed to Baltimore and officially could be recalled before tonight's series opener against the Rays at Camden Yards. The Tides were home last night and Vielma went 2-for-3 with a double. Vielma was optioned on Friday to make room for left-hander Tanner Scott. Because he hasn't been down for the minimum 10 days, he can return only if he's...

Among Orioles' needs is more useful utility

Among Orioles' needs is more useful utility
The mere mention of a utility infielder as part of a winter shopping list can make the eyes of the most engaged fans glaze over or roll into the tops of their heads. The national media isn't chasing those rumors. It's never as important or interesting as starting pitching or a bat. The Orioles had three spots to fill in their rotation and they wanted a left-handed hitting outfielder. Those areas were marked as priorities. But they never downplayed the need for a versatile player who could...

Gausman gem wasted in 2-1 loss (Beckham update and quotes)

Gausman gem wasted in 2-1 loss (Beckham update and quotes)
Further evidence that the Orioles can't catch a break arrived tonight when the Indians starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco caught a line drive. Cruel but usual punishment. A slumping Anthony Santander was denied by Carrasco, who stuck his glove in the air, snared the ball and threw to first base to double off Chance Sisco and end the bottom of the second inning. Santander was 1-for-17 and 3-for-27 before tonight. The guy needed a single and the Orioles needed more fuel for their rally. They...

Updates on Mancini, Schoop, Trumbo, Lee and more (O's down 2-1)
Trey Mancini is testing his right knee today by performing baseball activities on the field, and he's hoping to get back into the lineup Tuesday night against the Rays at Camden Yards. Mancini said the knee no longer hurts when he walks and there's just a hint of stiffness, but nothing that suggests a longer stint on the bench. "We'll have a good feel after BP about how close he is, and even his availability tonight," said manager Buck Showalter. Mancini will return to his role as leadoff...
