Brooks Robinson was in the house to highlight the minor league awards

Brooks Robinson was in the house to highlight the minor league awards
Outfielder Cedric Mullins called being named the winner of the Brooks Robinson Award as the Orioles' minor league Player of the Year "top tier." But having Mr. Oriole himself there might have taken it a few tiers beyond that. When Brooks Robinson is around, is it possible to have a bad day? The Orioles Hall of Famer, legend, all-time great and current team special advisor and community liaison was seated in the second row during a press conference last night to honor the minor league award...

Yefry Ramírez throws strong game, but O's blanked (with quotes)

Yefry Ramírez throws strong game, but O's blanked (with quotes)
An injury-riddled and struggling Orioles rotation got a shot in the arm tonight. It came from the right arm of Yefry Ramírez. He put together his best start since he threw five scoreless July 14 in Baltimore against the Rangers. But would he or the team get a win out of it? Chicago White Sox right-hander Reynaldo López made that a no. He's been pitching well lately, and that sure carried over tonight as the White Sox beat the Orioles 2-0 in front of 23,266 at Oriole Park. Chicago won an...

Hearing from the minor league award winners and Brooks Robinson

Hearing from the minor league award winners and Brooks Robinson
So it had to be pretty cool tonight when Orioles center fielder Cedric Mullins sat at a Camden Yards press conference to recognize the Orioles' 2018 minor league award winners. Mullins won Player of the Year, taking home the Brooks Robinson Award. And Brooks was there looking on in the second row. The Hall of Famer met Mullins in person for the first time today. No. 5 met No. 3. "I know he can play center field, just depends on how he's going to hit," Brooks said. "I saw him hit that...

Cashner not likely to make next start, Means could still be added

Cashner not likely to make next start, Means could still be added
The Orioles rotation remains very much in flux with 15 games remaining. The Orioles don't know for sure if or when Alex Cobb and/or Andrew Cashner will start again, and Luis Ortiz left last night's game with an injury. Right-hander David Hess will re-enter the rotation for tomorrow's start, and Yefry Ramírez pitches tonight, but it's rather up in the air after that. Manager Buck Showalter said "potentially" when asked if the Orioles have enough pitchers on the roster right now to make...

O's game blog: Yefry Ramírez faces the White Sox

O's game blog: Yefry Ramírez faces the White Sox
With losses in seven of eight and 11 of the last 13 games, the Orioles (42-105) host the Chicago White Sox tonight in the second game of a three-game series. Chicago scored seven runs in the first five innings last night in an 8-6 win over Baltimore. Trey Mancini put the Orioles on the board with a solo home run to lead off the second inning. He homered again in the fourth inning, another solo shot. This was Mancini's first multi-homer game of 2018 and the fifth of his career. He hit his 22nd...

Corban Joseph provides a feel-good moment during latest loss

Corban Joseph provides a feel-good moment during latest loss
Imagine that you played nearly 1,000 minor league games, yet your phone was not ringing off the hook last winter when some players were scrambling for minor league jobs. But you eventually got one at Double-A Bowie with the Orioles. Then in June you got called up to the majors. Until then your MLB experience consisted of two games and six at-bats. But that call to the majors lasted just five days. Then nine days after being sent back to the minors, you are designated for assignment. You clear...

Orioles rally comes up short in series opener (postgame quotes)

Orioles rally comes up short in series opener (postgame quotes)
When this series began, the Chicago White Sox had scored four runs or less for nine straight games. But by the fifth inning tonight, they had hit two homers and scored seven times. Chicago went on to beat the Orioles 8-6, holding off a late Baltimore comeback in the opener of a three-game series at Oriole Park. Both teams ended long losing streaks in their previous games, but Chicago emerges as the team with two straight wins after tonight's contest. The Orioles snapped a six-game losing...

O's game blog: Luis Ortiz makes his first major league start
As the Orioles host the Chicago White Sox tonight to start a three-game series, O's right-hander Luis Ortiz will make his second big league appearance and his first as a starter. Ortiz was acquired from Milwaukee with Jonathan Villar and infielder Jean Carmona on July 31 when the Orioles traded Jonathan Schoop to the Brewers. On the farm this year, between Double-A Biloxi and Triple-A Norfolk, the 22-year-old Ortiz went 5-5 with a 3.70 ERA. Over 99 2/3 innings, he allowed 97 hits and 11 homers...

Dylan Bundy relied heavily on his slider to get back on track

Dylan Bundy relied heavily on his slider to get back on track
Right-hander Dylan Bundy and the Orioles were both in need of a quality start last night, and both got one as the Orioles beat the Athletics 5-3. Bundy's slider was on point big-time as he allowed two runs over six innings with no walks and eight strikeouts. Seven of his strikeouts came via his slider. He picked up his first quality start since Aug. 4 and first win since July 29. Bundy improved to 8-14 with a 5.48 ERA with his longest outing since Aug. 4. It was his fifth game with no walks...

Dylan Bundy back in the win column as O's take finale (with quotes)

Dylan Bundy back in the win column as O's take finale (with quotes)
Dylan Bundy returned to his early-season form and that was a welcome sight tonight for the Orioles and their fans. He pitched the Orioles past Oakland 5-3 as they avoided getting swept in three straight and snapped a six-game losing streak. Bundy recorded his first quality start since Aug. 4 and his first win since July 29. His slider had its sharp, late break back and he recorded 16 swings and misses, 12 on the slider. That is his most in a start since he got 20 swinging strikes on May...

O's game blog: Dylan Bundy on the mound in Oakland series finale
The Orioles need a win at Camden Yards over Oakland tonight to avoid getting swept in a three-game series. The Orioles (41-104) are trying to snap a six-game losing streak and avoid being swept in a series of three or more games for the 17th time in 2018. Oakland beat the Orioles 3-2 Tuesday night and won 10-0 last night, pitching the 35th one-hitter in A's history, which dates to 1968. It was the fewest hits by the Orioles since they were no-hit on Aug. 12, 2015 at Seattle by Hisashi...

Cedric Mullins on recent struggles and DJ Stewart on his debut

Cedric Mullins on recent struggles and DJ Stewart on his debut
For the first time in a very young major league career, Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is dealing with a slump. He went 0-for-4 last night versus Oakland and is 4-for-37 (.108) in his last 10 games, dropping his average from .317 to .240. Mullins certainly knew some tough days would be coming after his great start. It's just part of the game for every player. He made his major league debut Aug. 10 and became the first Oriole to ever debut with a three-hit game. After his first nine games,...

Notes and quotes following the Orioles' latest loss

Notes and quotes following the Orioles' latest loss
The Orioles 2018 season is certainly one for the ages and not in a good way. As the Orioles are charging toward a team record for losses and approaching all-time records, they are looking terrible in doing so. Last night they allowed 10 runs in the third inning and trailed 10-0. Their offense went 1-for-28 with a single. They were shutout for the 13th time. They now have their eighth losing streak of the year of at least six games. Oakland had 20 at-bats with runners in scoring position and the...

Oakland pours it on in the third in 10-0 romp (postgame quotes)

Oakland pours it on in the third in 10-0 romp (postgame quotes)
For the second night in a row, the Oakland Athletics scored in the third inning and went on to win at Camden Yards. But tonight it seemed like they would never stop scoring in that inning. Oakland had 10 hits and scored 10 runs in the top of the third to blast the Orioles 10-0 at Camden Yards. The Orioles (41-104) are now three losses from tying the club record for losses in one season, set in 1988. In the third inning, Oakland scored eight runs off starter Andrew Cashner and two off reliever...

After Tuesday's homestand-opening 3-2 loss to Oakland, the Orioles host the Athletics again tonight. It's Game 2 of a three-game series and nine-game homestand. The Orioles (41-103) fell to 24-45 at home and saw a three-game home winning streak end. They are 0-4 against the Athletics for the year and 11-26 in one-run games. They recorded their 11th game with multiple stolen bases, their sixth since Aug. 20. Orioles right fielder Adam Jones had singles in the second and fourth innings Tuesday....

Cedric Mullins on DJ Stewart as his MLB debut arrives
As DJ Stewart gets ready to make his major league debut tonight, batting seventh and starting in left field for the Orioles, he will have a comfort level with the guy playing beside him. Cedric Mullins has a locker next to Stewart's in the Orioles clubhouse and starts in center tonight. The two have played many games together in the same outfield. It started after both were selected in the 2015 draft and went to short season Single-A Aberdeen. They also played together in 2016 with Single-A...

Jonathan Villar continues to impress; DJ Stewart set for MLB debut

Jonathan Villar continues to impress; DJ Stewart set for MLB debut
Of the 15 players the Orioles acquired in the July trades, it appears the only one we can bank on seeing on opening day 2019 - barring another deal - is infielder Jonathan Villar. Villar continues to play well for the Orioles and drove in both runs last night in a 3-2 loss to the Athletics. The Orioles have scored 10 runs over the last three games, and Villar has knocked in five of them. In 36 games with the Orioles he's shown a nice package of power and speed. He is playing better for the...

Surging A's beat slumping O's as homestand begins (with quotes)

Surging A's beat slumping O's as homestand begins (with quotes)
This being the 2018 Orioles, right-hander Alex Cobb retired the Oakland A's through two innings tonight and looked good doing so. And then he retired from this game. Presumably once again dealing with a blister on his right middle finger, Cobb pitched out of a two-out jam in the first and retired Oakland 1-2-3 on just nine pitches in the second. But Mike Wright Jr. took to the mound to start the third. Oakland scored three runs off him and beat the Orioles 3-2 at Camden Yards in the opener of...

O's game blog: Alex Cobb on mound as homestand begins
The Orioles begin a three-game series with Oakland tonight at Camden Yards. It is the start of a nine-game homestand that will see the Orioles play host to the Athletics, White Sox and Blue Jays. The Orioles (41-102) have 19 games remaining - 13 at home and six on the road. They have been better at home, going 24-44 (.353), than on the road, going 17-58 (.227) and losing 12 of the last 13. Oakland (87-57) is playing outstanding baseball and is the leader for the second American League wild card...
