O's game blog: Dylan Bundy and O's go for sweep against Mets

O's game blog: Dylan Bundy and O's go for sweep against Mets
As the Orioles look for a two-game sweep of the New York Mets tonight, they will also look for right-hander Dylan Bundy (7-10, 4.70 ERA) to get back on track. In his last start versus Boston, Bundy went five innings and allowed eight hits and eight runs (seven earned). Over his past six starts since the beginning of July, Bundy is 1-3 with a 7.72 ERA and has allowed 11 homers. He has yielded nine homers his past four starts. This stretch comes after Bundy went 3-0 with a 1.98 ERA in June. He...

Adam Jones on Cedric Mullins and playing in right, plus farm notes

Adam Jones on Cedric Mullins and playing in right, plus farm notes
Maybe playing right field is going to be good for Adam Jones on offense. I'm kidding here, but Jones did go 2-for-4 last night with a double and solo homer. In five games as a right fielder, he's 7-for-20 and batting .350/.409/.600 with an OPS of 1.009. Interviewed after last night's 6-3 win over the New York Mets, Jones wasn't offering much yet when asked how he's getting along in right field. "Fine," he said. "Less running. I've only been at it five games, so I'll let you know when...

Cashner was solid and Davis hits go-ahead homer (with quotes)

Cashner was solid and Davis hits go-ahead homer (with quotes)
Getting a solid starting pitching effort and a key late-game homer led the Orioles to a win tonight over the New York Mets. When the 2018 season began, they probably envisioned more than a few games going this way, but at least it did tonight to keep the Orioles from falling 50 games under the .500 mark. Chris Davis homered in the seventh to break a 2-2 tie and Andrew Cashner pitched a strong seven innings in a 6-3 win over the Mets. The Orioles are 36-84 for the season and 3-0 versus the Mets....

O's game blog: Andrew Cashner pitches series opener against Mets

O's game blog: Andrew Cashner pitches series opener against Mets
When they played a two-game series against the New York Mets in early June at Citi Field, the Orioles swept the two games. They won 2-1 and 1-0 behind Alex Cobb and Dylan Bundy. In those games, O's pitchers allowed one run and eight hits. Tonight they host the Mets to begin another two-game series. This one begins at 7:05 p.m. at Camden Yards and continues on Wednesday night. The Mets (50-66) beat the Yankees last night, hitting five homers, and have won four of five and six of their last nine...

Cody Carroll starts to settle in with O's, looks for consistent results

Cody Carroll starts to settle in with O's, looks for consistent results
New bullpen right-hander Cody Carroll has pitched four times for the Orioles since they acquired him from the Yankees in the July 24 trade for closer Zach Britton. Carroll pitched two scoreless innings his first two times out on 31 pitches. But his last two games have seen him walk five and allow three runs over 1 2/3 innings. After posting strong numbers this year in Triple-A, he is now trying to find his way in the majors for the first time. He's trying to get to that point where a young...

All this losing could lead the Orioles to the top draft pick

All this losing could lead the Orioles to the top draft pick
You get very few rewards for losing, but a reward of sorts for the 2018 Orioles with all their losing would be a high draft pick in 2019. Perhaps, for just the second time in team history, the Orioles will secure the No. 1 pick in the June 2019 First-Year Player Draft, for losing more than any other this year. But for that distinction, they have a challenger. As bad as the Orioles have been, the Kansas City Royals are just about right there with them. Currently, the Orioles have the worst...

Winless weekend not uneventful for the Orioles

Winless weekend not uneventful for the Orioles
The Orioles went 0-4 over the weekend versus Boston and fell to 49 games under .500 at 35-84 after Sunday's loss. Boston completed the four-game sweep, but not everything from the weekend was a downer. Looking back at the weekend: Mullins arrives: The Orioles finally called up Cedric Mullins and we had a changing of the guard in the outfield. Mullins took over in center and Adam Jones moved to right. Jones not only welcomed Mullins with open arms and was happy to turn over center field to him,...

Chris Sale fans 12 and Boston completes sweep (quotes added)

Chris Sale fans 12 and Boston completes sweep (quotes added)
Boston left-hander Chris Sale was dominating the Orioles today for five innings. But in the sixth they got a reprieve when the Red Sox went to right-hander Tyler Thornburg. The O's were saved by the fact that Sale was coming off the disabled list and Boston held him to 68 pitches this afternoon. But they were 68 very impressive pitches. His five scoreless innings led Boston to a 4-1 win today as the Red Sox swept this four-game series. It's their first four-game sweep at Camden Yards since...

J.D. Martinez homers twice as Boston sweeps (quotes added)

J.D. Martinez homers twice as Boston sweeps (quotes added)
It was a night where the Orioles took an early lead but failed to max out their scoring chances in those innings. They could have used those runs later on. J.D. Martinez hit two homers as Boston came from 2-0 down in the third to beat the Orioles 6-4 tonight at Oriole Park. The Red Sox (84-35) improved to 13-2 versus the Orioles (35-83), won for the ninth time in 10 games, and 28th in their past 34 contests. They are 42-20 in road games and sweep the day-night doubleheader. The Orioles are 0-3...

Boston breaks through in the fifth to beat O's, 5-0 (quotes added)
Well, there were not 31 runs scored today in the first game of this day-night doubleheader. Boston lefty David Price kept the Orioles from scoring any as the Red Sox won 5-0 to improve to 83-35. Price went six scoreless on four singles and a double to improve to 12-6 with a 3.75 ERA. He did not walk a batter and fanned 10, throwing 94 pitches.

Trey Mancini's advice for Cedric Mullins

Trey Mancini's advice for Cedric Mullins
Like outfielder Cedric Mullins last night, Trey Mancini once went through that same excitement of playing in his first major league game. For Mancini it came on Sept. 20, 2016, and it was also against the Boston Red Sox. He went 1-for-3 and homered in his second big league at-bat. Mancini became the third player in Orioles history to homer in his major league debut, joining Larry Haney in 1966 and Jonathan Schoop in 2013. Before he did so, the last Oriole to homer for his first big league hit...

Mullins debuts with three hits, but O's lose big (with Mullins quotes)

Mullins debuts with three hits, but O's lose big (with Mullins quotes)
The Orioles had a chance for a feel-good win on Cedric Mullins' first night in the majors, and with the kid making a major contribution. But Boston's potent offense and some very shaky Orioles pitching didn't allow it. The O's led 8-3 after the third inning but lost 19-12 tonight in front of 23,649 at Camden Yards in the opener of a four-game weekend series. The Orioles (35-81) have lost six of their past eight games. They are 2-11 versus Boston this year and 2-14 in the last 16 between...

More from Cedric Mullins' debut and the O's Hall of Famers
The Orioles scored eight early runs to lead Boston by five. In his major league debut, outfielder Cedric Mullins had two hits and two RBIs by the third inning. But as the game went on, Boston kept scoring. The Red Sox produced 14 runs from the sixth through the eighth in a 19-12 win over the Orioles Friday night. It was ugly and it took four hours and a minute to play. The O's bullpen allowed 11 runs. Dylan Bundy gave up eight to tie his career high. Bundy's ERA is 7.71 his past six...

O's game blog: Mancini on new outfield and the O's Hall of Famers
Orioles left fielder Trey Mancini will play alongside a new center fielder and right fielder tonight. With Cedric Mullins' call-up today, he will start in center field as Adam Jones moves to right. Mancini, who played his first Orioles game on Sept. 20, 2016, said he expects Mullins to bring confidence into his first big league game, and that that is something very important for any player in his first game at this level. "You have to have that (confident) mentality from the second you get...

Cedric Mullins on the call to the Orioles and playing in center field
Orioles fans may have been anticipating the call-up of outfielder Cedric Mullins for weeks. But Mullins himself said he didn't think too much about it. That was until after the Triple-A Norfolk game yesterday afternoon. "R.J. (Norfolk manager Ron Johnson) called me into his office to ask me how I was feeling. Because I didn't play that day (after being ill). I said, 'I'm feeing good.' He said, 'Guess what, you're going to be feeling great. You're going to the bigs.' Kind of caught me...

O's return home, Werth on analytics and farm notes
After going 3-6 on a road trip to New York, Texas and St. Petersburg, the Orioles return home tonight to face Boston with a record of 35-80. They are playing .304 baseball with 47 games to go. At this win percentage they would finish 49-113. Tonight they face this Boston team, which has almost the exact opposite record at 81-35. Boston lost to Toronto last night to see a six-game win streak end. But the Red Sox have won 10 of 12 and 25 of their past 31 games. They are 39-15 versus AL East teams...
