Alex Wells on Futures Game honor and his move to Frederick this year

Alex Wells on Futures Game honor and his move to Frederick this year
Orioles left-handed pitching prospect Alex Wells of the Single-A Frederick Keys had such elite command and control last year that it was almost a given that he could not duplicate that this season in moving up from the South Atlantic League to the Carolina League. But for the most part, he's handled the move up well, albeit with a couple of recent bumps in the road. But a road that has taken him from Newcastle, South Wales, Australia to the Orioles will take the 21-year-old Wells to the...

Another rally falls short as Texas takes opener 5-4 (with quotes)

Another rally falls short as Texas takes opener 5-4 (with quotes)
During a season in which young O's lefty reliever Tanner Scott has mixed in some dominant appearances with some clunkers, the latter showed up tonight. Texas got to him for four runs in the seventh to post a 5-4 win in the series opener at Oriole Park. The Orioles (26-69) have lost four of five, 10 of 12 and 17 of their last 20 games. They are 4-21 in their last 25 home games and 14-33 for the season in Baltimore. Texas had lost five of six entering this series and was 2-9 this month before...

O's game blog: Alex Cobb pitches Texas series opener
The Orioles (26-68) host the Texas Rangers (40-54) tonight to start a three-game series that will wrap up an eight-game homestand. The Orioles are 2-3 on the homestand after splitting four games with the Yankees and losing last night to the Phillies. Texas just got swept three straight at Boston and is 2-4 on a 10-game, 11-day trip that started with a four-game split in Detroit. Texas has lost five of six and is 2-9 in July, the second-lowest winning percentage in the American League for the...

Mancini's homer could jump-start his offense and Bowie's big comeback

Mancini's homer could jump-start his offense and Bowie's big comeback
Maybe in a previous time or on a previous day, the comeback would have been completed. But not by the 2018 Orioles, who just suffered another frustrating loss last night, 5-4 to Philadelphia. The Orioles won a pair of one-run games versus the Yankees, but lost by one Thursday night. Down 5-0, they cut that to 5-4 when Trey Mancini hit a two-run homer and Jace Peterson followed with a solo shot in the seventh. The table was set to pull out a late win. But it didn't happen as the Orioles fell to...

Late rally falls short in one-run loss to Phils (with postgame quotes)

Late rally falls short in one-run loss to Phils (with postgame quotes)
There were some bloops that fell in and some plays not made on defense. But there was also some damage done by the opponent's No. 9 hitter. It was that kind of game for Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman. He allowed a career-high 12 hits tonight as Philadelphia beat the Orioles 5-4 at Camden Yards. With the Orioles down 5-1 in the seventh, the O's offense showed some life when Trey Mancini hit a two-run homer to right-center off starter Nick Pivetta. Jace Peterson followed with a homer to...

O's game blog: Orioles face the Phils in rainout makeup game
In the makeup of a rainout from May 15, the Orioles (26-67) host the Philadelphia Phillies (51-40) for one night only. The teams have played three times this year with the Phillies winning all three by scores of 4-1 in Baltimore and 3-2 and 4-1 earlier this month at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies have won eight of their last 11, which includes those two wins over the Orioles. Over a longer stretch, they are 19-10 since June 10. Their .655 winning percentage in that span ranks second in the...

Trey Mancini spurns a reset as he tries to get his bat going

Trey Mancini spurns a reset as he tries to get his bat going
Given the chance for a reset - a few days out of the starting lineup - like we've seen Orioles manager Buck Showalter use recently with Chris Davis and Jonathan Schoop, Trey Mancini said he would rather not do that. With his average down to .220 and in a slump that has seen him go 1-for-21 over the last nine games, Mancini is back in the lineup tonight, batting eighth at first base against Philadelphia. Mancini didn't start two of the last three games. But that is enough, he said. In 88...

O's rotation has gone seven games without a quality start

O's rotation has gone seven games without a quality start
The Orioles lost to the Yankees last night and got their latest subpar start - this one from right-hander Dylan Bundy, the seventh consecutive game in which the O's have not had a quality start. The rotation ERA is 7.99 in that stretch. Before these seven games, the O's rotation had recorded nine quality starts in 14 games and looked like it had turned a corner. But Bundy has allowed 11 runs in 7 1/3 innings in two starts since coming off the disabled list. This stretch also includes Andrew...

Dylan Bundy exits early as New York wins to split series (with quotes)

Dylan Bundy exits early as New York wins to split series (with quotes)
For Orioles right-hander Dylan Bundy tonight, it came down to a five-run third inning that beat him. There was a double play chance not taken and a long plate appearance won big-time by the batter. It conspired against him as the New York Yankees beat the Orioles 9-0 at Oriole Park to split a four-game series. The Orioles' bats could do very little with New York right-hander Sonny Gray. He entered with a 5.85 ERA and had allowed 13 hits and 11 runs over 4 1/3 innings in his past two starts. In...

O's game blog: Dylan Bundy faces New York in series finale
After a walk-off win last night, the Orioles need a victory tonight to take three of four in a series against the New York Yankees for the second time in 2018. They won three of four at New York April 5-8. The Orioles are 5-4 versus the Yankees for the season and 3-2 at Camden Yards. Last night produced the Orioles' second walk-off win of the season and first since opening day. And it was New York's second walk-off loss. A case could be made that the Orioles are the difference right now at...

Bullpen roster shuffle: Donnie Hart is quite familiar with it

Bullpen roster shuffle: Donnie Hart is quite familiar with it
Orioles lefty reliever Donnie Hart didn't know the answer when a reporter asked him today how many times he's been on the Orioles roster this year. Yesterday he was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk for the seventh time. And even though he has been on the O's roster that many times, the length of the stay has often been very short. Here is the rundown, with the first day each time being the day he was recalled and the second being the day he was sent back to the minors: April 13-15 May 13-20...

Frederick notes on Zac Lowther, Alex Wells and Wilson Garcia

Frederick notes on Zac Lowther, Alex Wells and Wilson Garcia
Frederick, MD. - Left-hander Zac Lowther will get the start for the Single-A Frederick Keys tonight at home against Wilmington. If it goes anything like most of his previous starts this year, he'll have a good night. In a combined 13 outings between Single-A Delmarva and Frederick, the 22-year-old Lowther is 6-2 with a 1.47 ERA. Over 67 1/3 he's allowed just 43 hits with 19 walks, 88 strikeouts, a 0.92 WHIP and .181 batting average against. So, yeah pretty strong season for the second-year...

In rehab outing, Chris Tillman allows six runs at Frederick

In rehab outing, Chris Tillman allows six runs at Frederick
Frederick, MD. - Showing a fastball that sat mostly between 88 and 91 mph, Orioles right-hander Chris Tillman allowed six runs over 6 1/3 innings tonight for Single-A Frederick against Wilmington at Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium. While it fell far short of anything close to a positive outing, Tillman did put together a string of three scoreless innings after a shaky start. But with likely just one more rehab start left before his 30-day minor league rehab assignment runs out, Tillman has...

O's game blog: Cashner faces Tanaka at Oriole Park
The Orioles host the New York Yankees tonight in the third game of a four-game series and an eight-game homestand leading into the All-Star break. The clubs split a doubleheader Monday, with the Orioles winning the opener 5-4 and losing the nightcap 10-2. The Orioles' (25-66) offense continued its season-long struggles in Game 2, producing just two runs on five hits. The Orioles have scored two runs or fewer in six of their last eight and nine of 12 games. They are 3-38 when scoring two or...

Schoop on possible Machado deal: "I don't want to imagine that day coming"

Schoop on possible Machado deal: "I don't want to imagine that day coming"
Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop said several times earlier this year that he didn't want to ponder life as an Oriole without his best friend, shortstop Manny Machado. But as the trade talks heat up and Machado's time as an Oriole may be down to days, Schoop did ponder it for a moment during an interview yesterday. "That will be hard. That will be hard," Schoop said twice of a possible Machado deal. "We go way back. I don't want to imagine that day coming. I know it's business. But...

Ramírez takes loss as Yankees win nightcap, gain split (with quotes)

Ramírez takes loss as Yankees win nightcap, gain split (with quotes)
Orioles right-hander Yefry Ramírez showed a good changeup and some poise when he got into jams tonight. But the New York Yankees still hit him enough to take a 4-0 lead on their way to an 10-2 victory over the Orioles. The clubs split a doubleheader in front of 26,340 at Oriole Park. The Orioles won the opener 5-4 as Danny Valencia hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the last of the sixth. Coming off an outing at Philadelphia where he allowed one hit and one earned run in five innings,...

Danny Valencia hits go-ahead homer as O's take Game 1 (with quotes)
If you're going to end a slump, hitting a go-ahead three-run home run is a good way to do it. Danny Valencia did that in the last of the sixth today, leading the Orioles past CC Sabathia and the New York Yankees at Camden Yards. The Orioles took Game 1 of the doubleheader 5-4. They improved to 25-65 in ending a six-game losing streak and winning for just the third time in their past 20 home games. The Orioles are 4-3 against the Yankees, who fall to 58-30. Valencia was in an 0-for-25 rut when...

Coming off back-to-back good outings versus Seattle and Philadelphia, right-hander Yefry Ramírez (0-2, 2.51 ERA) makes his fourth big league appearance and third start in Game 2 of today's doubleheader. Ramírez made his major league debut June 13 in a start versus Boston and allowed three runs over 4 1/3 innings. In his past two games - in relief versus Seattle and a start in Philly - he has allowed four hits and one earned run over 10 innings. In those 10 innings, he averaged 11.7...

Machado on Orioles: "This organization has given me everything"
Manny Machado has said a couple of times in the last week that he's not quite ready to say yet what it would mean to him to be an ex-Oriole if he is traded. But today he talked at length about what it has been like to be an Oriole since the day they drafted him third overall in 2010. "This organization has given me everything," he said this afternoon in the Orioles clubhouse. "I got drafted here. They brought me up. This has been home for the last seven years. It's been truly an amazing...
