Ryan Romano: Should Gallardo keep Wright and Wilson out of the rotation?

Ryan Romano: Should Gallardo keep Wright and Wilson out of the rotation?
What words come to mind when you think of the 2016 Orioles rotation? For me, the first few are ones that I can't print here. After that though, "fluid" arises as the most apt euphemism. Chris Tillman and Kevin Gausman have stuck around and pitched well, but beyond them the waters get murky. Dylan Bundy is currently a starter after beginning the campaign as a long reliever; the same applies to Vance Worley, for the most part. Ubaldo Jimenez, Mike Wright and Tyler Wilson have each had extended...

O's fans host third annual School of Roch Night

O's fans host third annual School of Roch Night
To say Roch Kubatko has a strong following is a bit of an understatement. Every day, Orioles fans visit the School of Roch on MASNsports.com, eager to find out the latest news and notes of the Birds. And just below each entry, in the comments section, those same fans come together to form one of the strongest and most loyal online gatherings of sports fans in baseball. It's a tightly knit community, rather than simply a group of random commenters. Fans talk baseball, of course, but often...

Yard Work podcast: Episode 9

Yard Work podcast: Episode 9
Hey, O's fans. Welcome to this week's edition of Yard Work. In today's episode.... The Orioles return home from their first road trip since the All-Star break. It wasn't the smoothest of journeys, however. After taking two of three from the Rays in Tampa Bay, the Orioles lost a four-game series against the Yankees in the Bronx, and were just a Chris Tillman gem shy of being swept by their divisional rival. Oddly enough, it was the team's offense that sputtered out of the gate. The Orioles...

Matthew Taylor: Zach Britton closing in on history for O's

Matthew Taylor: Zach Britton closing in on history for O's
Zach Britton is a perfect 30-for-30 in save situations in 2016 after closing things out in the Bronx on Thursday afternoon. He joins Gregg Olson as the only Orioles relievers with three seasons of 30 or more saves. The current O's closer is justifying the T-shirt worthy play on words, "Great Britton" (hat tip: OBP Apparel). This is the fifth consecutive year that the Orioles have had a closer with 30 or more saves, which marks the longest such run in team history. Britton is putting an...

Zach Wilt: Looking at the O's offensive struggles since the All-Star break

Zach Wilt: Looking at the O's offensive struggles since the All-Star break
For the first time since June 4, the Baltimore Orioles find themselves out of first place in the American League East. Looking up in the standings is something this club hasn't been used to this year. In 2016, the O's have spent 91 days atop their division and saw their lead reach a season-high 5 1/2 games on June 29, but after the Birds got shut out in the Bronx last night, the Red Sox took a half-game lead in the East when they defeated the Giants 11-7. The second half hasn't been kind to...

Dillon Atkinson: Diving into some bullpen options as trade deadline nears

Dillon Atkinson: Diving into some bullpen options as trade deadline nears
In an act of possible desperation, manager Buck Showalter has opted to use Dylan Bundy and Vance Worley in starter's roles this past week. These two - behind the trio of Chris Tillman, Kevin Gausman and Yovani Gallardo - could stick in the rotation for a little while, despite possible pitch limits, since both are making the move from the bullpen. However, it's not a secret that the Orioles could use help in the starting rotation from outside the organization. And it would be hard to imagine...

Ryan Romano: Schoop improves his situational plate discipline

Ryan Romano: Schoop improves his situational plate discipline
If you've watched the Orioles on MASN recently, you've likely seen the ad featuring Jonathan Schoop. The announcer provides the denotations for a number of words like "fluke" and "luck," interspersed between clips of the second baseman's more impressive plays, before bragging about some element of his performance. These doubts have always seemed to haunt Schoop, which is why his apparent breakout in 2016 feels so sweet. Through, Schoop had hit .302/.335/.515, by far the best line of his...

Andrew Stetka: Moving Bundy to rotation a bit premature

Andrew Stetka: Moving Bundy to rotation a bit premature
You can call me a skeptic, a pessimist or someone who just generally doesn't enjoy fun, but I don't like the idea of Dylan Bundy as a starter for the Orioles right now. I thought this even before the 23-year-old former fourth-overall pick made his first major league start yesterday. This isn't a "hot take" or an overreaction to yesterday's outing, which was obviously less than stellar. I was mildly surprised by the move to start Bundy. At the start of the season, I never thought it was...

Determining the Orioles' first-half MVP

Determining the Orioles' first-half MVP
It's hard to believe, but the second half of the season gets underway tomorrow. Of course, every team has played more than half of its games already, but this week represents the unofficial halfway point of the season. For the Orioles, it's been a half-season full of mostly ups and a few downs. The positives include a first-place standing, a 51-36 record, an offense that has already broken one record and could certainly break more, and a bullpen that is one of the strongest in baseball. On...

Members of 1966 team look back on the Orioles' first championship season

Members of 1966 team look back on the Orioles' first championship season
Fifty years ago, the average cost of a new home was $23,300. Gas averaged around 32 cents per gallon, a dozen eggs cost 60 cents and a gallon of milk was a steep 99 cents. Lyndon Johnson was the president of the United States and, in Baltimore, the city was home to the world champions of baseball. It's hard to believe it's been five decades since the Orioles captured their inaugural championship. The 1966 Orioles entered the World Series as heavy underdogs to the Los Angeles Dodgers and their...

Hey, O's fans. Welcome to this week's episode of Yard Work. We're back after the Orioles return home from a long West Coast road trip.

Matthew Taylor: Players have statistics, so why not fans?

Matthew Taylor: Players have statistics, so why not fans?
There are literally billions of data points about baseball available each season, thanks to the rise of pitch tracking and player tracking technologies. We have more objective measures than ever before regarding player performance. Fan performance, however, is difficult to examine objectively. We need to put baseball fan bases, including our own, to the test. In the best of times and in the worst of times, what is the tale of each baseball city? The wonderful term "fanalytics" is already...

Trumbo to participate in next week's Home Run Derby

Trumbo to participate in next week's Home Run Derby
For the fourth year in a row, an Orioles player will try to capture a Home Run Derby title. Following Wednesday's win over the Dodgers, Orioles slugger Mark Trumbo told reporters he will take part in this year's event, which will feature four hitters from both the American League and National League. "I'm doing it," Trumbo said on participating in the event. Let's chalk that brief comment up to being a little tired after a 14-inning game to end an even longer road trip. In any case, this...

Zach Wilt: O's need pitching, but not at cost of losing top assets

Zach Wilt: O's need pitching, but not at cost of losing top assets
It took 14 innings, but yesterday the Orioles turned what could have been called "a bad road trip" into "let's just ignore what happened for those four games in Seattle." Jonathan Schoop's heroics in the 14th secured a series win for the Birds in Los Angeles and a 4-5 record out west against the Padres, Mariners and Dodgers. I'm sure it made the long flight back to Charm City a little more pleasant. Though it's not the 5-1/2-game lead they had when they won their seventh straight game...
