Dillon Atkinson: What August moves are ahead for Orioles?

Dillon Atkinson: What August moves are ahead for Orioles?
The July 31 non-waiver trade deadline is behind us, and instead of selling, the Orioles decided to be small buyers, acquiring right-hander Jeremy Hellickson and infielder Tim Beckham. The Birds tried making a seller's deal to trade away All-Star closer Zach Britton for a package of prospects, but no deal could be reached. It's up for debate whether or not the moves the club made were wise ones, but what's done is done and the O's plan to make a run for the playoffs. They're off to a hot...

Andrew Stetka: Despite Hellickson move, Orioles aren't buyers

Andrew Stetka: Despite Hellickson move, Orioles aren't buyers
Don't be fooled by what you see or hear. Don't be duped by trades that are made or those that aren't. The Orioles aren't buyers this season. They aren't really in it and they likely aren't making a push for the postseason. Friday night's deal for Jeremy Hellickson told me all I needed to know about the direction the Orioles are headed. Actually, the O's appear to be more in neutral than anything else. Over the last few weeks, we've heard plenty of speculation about the plans for the...

Zach Wilt: Taking a look at Adam Jones' hot streak

Zach Wilt: Taking a look at Adam Jones' hot streak
Over the past week, no hitter has been better for the Orioles than Adam Jones. In 33 plate appearances, he has slashed .394/.394/.758. He's belted three homers, just one shy of All-Star Jonathan Schoop, and driven in nine while scoring seven times. Jones leads the O's in wOBA (.478) and wRC+ (205) over the last seven days. It's one of those classic stretches for the Orioles center fielder. We have seen No. 10 heat up like this countless times over his decade in Baltimore. On July 17, he was...

Dillon Atkinson: Deadline approach could define Dan Duquette's legacy

Dillon Atkinson: Deadline approach could define Dan Duquette's legacy
Orioles executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette has a mixed reputation among the fan base. Some applaud him for his acquisitions of productive players like Wei-Yin Chen, Jason Hammel, Nelson Cruz and Mark Trumbo, among others. Another large sum show their disapproval of Duquette for letting players like Cruz and Andrew Miller walk, for trading away young pitching and for acquiring players who performed below expectations, like Ubaldo Jiménez, Travis Snider and Yovani...

Andrew Stetka: Roller coaster of Orioles season making some fans sick
If you've ever been to an amusement park and taken a ride on the biggest roller coasters, you know exactly what an Orioles fan feels like over the last few weeks. The ups and downs, the twists and turns, and the subtle feeling that you might need to vomit all go hand in hand. Whether you are a fan that is more focused on the prospects of the 2017 O's, or are more concerned with Baltimore's chances beyond this season, there has been enough double-talk and mystery to go around for both...

Zach Wilt: Caleb Joseph's turnaround in 2017

Zach Wilt: Caleb Joseph's turnaround in 2017
2016 was not kind to Caleb Joseph. The Orioles catcher finished the year with a .174/.216/.197 slashline and a zero in the RBI category. That statistic combined with his long homerless stretch drew quite a bit of attention nationally. Joseph started last season with 66 RBI-less at-bats, then suffered an unfortunate testicular injury that landed him on the disabled list for the entire month of June. After returning with a reinforced kevlar cup, he finished the year with another 66 RBI-less...

Dillon Atkinson: Machado's return to form shouldn't be a surprise

Dillon Atkinson: Machado's return to form shouldn't be a surprise
Through the first half of the 2017 campaign, to say Orioles third baseman Manny Machado was underperforming at the plate would be an understatement. Machado slashed a combined .290/.351/.518 with 72 long balls and a 132 wRC+ from 2015 through 2016. Being just 24 heading into this season, many expected him to stay on the same track, if not get even better. However, this hasn't been the case. From the start of this season to the All-Star break, Machado posted just a .230/.296/.445 with a 91...

Andrew Stetka: For O's, any sell-off must be done carefully
The Orioles aren't completely buried after this weekend's sweep at the hands of the defending World Series champion Chicago Cubs, but there is certainly some dirt on their grave. With that comes the realization that perhaps this isn't "the year" for the Birds. At least that appears to be the sentiment of the front office if reporting from Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports is to be believed. Rosenthal says that O's executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette has begun informing...

Zach Wilt: Why the Orioles shouldn't buy or sell at trade deadline

Zach Wilt: Why the Orioles shouldn't buy or sell at trade deadline
The All-Star break is over and Orioles baseball resumes tonight with the start of the second half of the season. Our Birds are back in action at Camden Yards this evening against the defending World Series champion Chicago Cubs for the first of a three-game series. It feels like it's been awhile since we watched a baseball game where the outcome was meaningful and significant. Not that I'm complaining about the All-Star Game no longer determining home-field advantage in the World Series. I...

Zach Wilt: Opponents have adjusted to Dylan Bundy

Zach Wilt: Opponents have adjusted to Dylan Bundy
Dylan Bundy was one of the Orioles' best stories over the first two months of the season. In April and May, the 24-year-old righty made 11 starts and the O's went 7-4 in those games. Bundy pitched 71 2/3 innings, limited opponents to a .240 batting average and recorded a 2.89 ERA over that span. He began the season with eight consecutive quality starts and ten in his first 11. Bundy immediately jumped out as the team's best starter in his first full season in the rotation. It seemed like...
