ARLINGTON, Texas – The smile came before the response. Anthony Santander gave it away, failing to offer a spoiler alert, during today’s on-field media session at the All-Star Game.

On the first night of the 2024 MLB Draft, the Orioles seemed to play into the strength of this draft in adding three college position players, all three from the Atlantic Coast Conference. For the sixth straight draft since Mike Elias took over in his role with the club, the O’s did not take a pitcher in the first round. Or any among the three sele
The break begins today for most players in the majors. The exceptions already are gathering in Arlington, Texas.
