Wigginton showed 'Heart & Hustle' for O's in 2010

Wigginton showed 'Heart & Hustle' for O's in 2010
The latest Oriole who needs your help in the voting is this year's Heart & Hustle Award nominee, Ty Wigginton. After approaching the 2010 season without a distinct concept of what his role might be, Wigginton proved to be a big part of this year's Orioles team. Wigginton wound up playing 154 of the Birds' 162 games and finished the season with a .248 average at the plate; his 76 RBI led the team, while his 22 homers put him second only to Luke Scott and his 29 doubles tied him with...

Aramark appears to be out at Oriole Park

Aramark appears to be out at Oriole Park
Aramark has served as the Orioles' food vendor since Camden Yards opened in 1992, and they've popped up in the news and here in the Orioles Buzz a handful of times in the last year or two. But heading into the 2011 season, the Orioles have decided to part ways with their long-time concessions vendor. It wasn't that long ago that the O's announced the arrival of a new head chef and a slew of new menu items (Opening Day 2009), as well as the addition of food and beverage items from local...

Keep the O's spirit alive in October

Keep the O's spirit alive in October
One day the O's spirit will be alive in October during a playoff run that will have Baltimore buzzing. But for this year, Birdland will settle for a remarkably strong finish under new Orioles skipper Buck Showalter and the eternal hope of the offseason and eventually spring training. So if your O's enthusiasm is still running high and you're looking to ease the cold turkey feeling that comes with the end of the season, spice up your fall decorations with an Orioles carved pumpkin.

Too soon to look to Spring Training?

Too soon to look to Spring Training?
Here we are on the first day of the offseason, with today the first of many days without Orioles baseball. On one hand, it's a bit of a relief to the players, coaches, managers, and front office members who have put in long hours over a long season. On the other hand, it won't take more than a few days before things already start to feel empty around Oriole Park. When the team departs, so does a certain energy from the Warehouse, and the overcast feeling of winter days without baseball...

Friday's live chats canceled

Friday's live chats canceled
Along with pushing Thursday's Orioles-Tigers game to Friday, the (very) wet weather hitting the region is putting a damper on another O's event scheduled for the last homestand of the season. Unfortunately, Friday's doubleheader has forced us to cancel our last round of live video chats with Jeremy Guthrie and Adam Jones. Friday's adjusted schedule (not to mention Guthrie's next start) simply won't allow us to complete the chats as scheduled, and with the end of the season rapidly...

Our final 'Where in the Yard?' winner for the 2010 season
After months of competition, we have a first here in the O's Buzz in awarding our final 'Where in the Yard?' winner of the 2010 season. Amazingly, we haven't had any ties for the lead or repeat winners - at least until now. In beating the rest of Birdland to the punch three our of the four weeks in September (and thus securing an extra bonus point in three of the four rounds), Charles B from SP took home his second 'Where in the Yard?' crown during the final month of the Orioles'...
