Dillon Atkinson: Is it too early to hit panic button on Gallardo?

Dillon Atkinson: Is it too early to hit panic button on Gallardo?
If you can recall, less than two months ago, the Orioles and right-handed pitcher Yovani Gallardo agreed upon a restructured two-year, $22 million contract with a third year option. The deal was restructured from its original value of a three-year, $35 million contract with a fourth year option due to concern with Gallardo's shoulder in his physical examination. Could the Orioles' concern in his shoulder be appearing in his first two regular season outings of 2016? His pitching line looked...

Ryan Romano: Why does Worley fall apart late in games?

Ryan Romano: Why does Worley fall apart late in games?
Through the first four games of the Orioles' 2016 campaign, no starting pitcher had allowed more than two runs. Vance Worley looked to sustain that success when he took the hill on Sunday against the Rays, and at first, it seemed like he would. The first time through the order, Worley allowed only two baserunners -- both singles -- and racked up four strikeouts. Things began to fall apart during the second go-round, however, as the Tampa Bay hitters touched Worley up for a solo home run, a...

Andrew Stetka: Joey Rickard's big week

Andrew Stetka: Joey Rickard's big week
As the baseball world focuses on great stories coming out of the first week, a few lesser known rookies have taken center stage. Trevor Story's historic start for the Colorado Rockies would be impossible to go unnoticed, while the Houston Astros' new first baseman Tyler White has caught fire in his first few games. On a lesser known scale nationally, but already beloved in Baltimore, is Joey Rickard. Just months ago, Rickard was a prospect in the Tampa Bay Rays system looking for a path to...

Matthew Taylor: Here's my connection to the Orioles, what's yours?

Matthew Taylor: Here's my connection to the Orioles, what's yours?
I returned to Nashville, Tenn., on Wednesday evening after a visit to my beloved hometown in Baltimore. It's never easy to leave. It was soothing to listen to the Orioles radio broadcast that night as I prepared dinner in my house away from home. I haven't lived in the Baltimore area for nearly a decade now, but no matter how far I go, the Orioles always bring me closer to home. There are seemingly endless love songs expressing the sentiment that the object of one's affection feels like...

Zach Wilt: Orioles offense showing a different look

Zach Wilt: Orioles offense showing a different look
The Orioles are atop the American League East with an undefeated record. They're on pace to finish the 2016 season with an historic 162 wins. The Birds haven't lost a game in months. What a great time to cheer on the orange and black. That's always a fun exercise when you're team starts the season 2-0. Feel free to use that first paragraph for your Facebook status today. In all seriousness, my biggest takeaway from the early part of the 2016 season is that the Orioles offense looks...

Dillon Atkinson: Rule 5 ritual has been successful for Duquette

Dillon Atkinson: Rule 5 ritual has been successful for Duquette
After being hired as the Orioles' executive vice president of baseball operations following the 2011 season, Dan Duquette has made little noise in the Winter Meetings each offseason. He hasn't been completely quiet however, as he always participates in the Rule 5 Draft. Duquette has selected six players in the major league portion of the Rule 5 Draft in his time with the Orioles, with four of those players breaking camp with the major league club in their respective year. Here are those...

Ryan Romano: Can Alvarez and Trumbo improve the O's offense?

Ryan Romano: Can Alvarez and Trumbo improve the O's offense?
When we think of the Baltimore Orioles, we generally imagine a team that scores a lot of runs. Chris Davis, Manny Machado and Adam Jones have hit quite well in recent years, and unless they get hurt, their success should hold steady in 2016. Supporting cast members such as Matt Wieters, Caleb Joseph and Jonathan Schoop have served as reliable depth options. And most importantly, new arrivals Mark Trumbo and Pedro Alvarez should make things even better. Overall, it seems like the team should...

Andrew Stetka: O's opener marks start of strangest possible season

Andrew Stetka: O's opener marks start of strangest possible season
The Orioles embark on the 2016 season following what is quite possibly one of the strangest offseasons in recent memory. There were more ups and downs over the last five months than on a roller coaster. Entering the offseason, no one expected the O's to bring back their free agents. There was no chance they were paying Matt Wieters, Chris Davis and Darren O'Day. Yet, here we are and all three remain on the roster. After an offseason where the franchise spent more money than ever, we're left...

Remembering the Orioles' trip to Havana and what's happened since

Remembering the Orioles' trip to Havana and what's happened since
This week's exhibition game in Havana between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban National Team is another example of baseball being used as a positive step forward in the thaw of diplomatic relations between the United States and the island nation. During much of the media coverage of Tuesday's game, it was noted that the last Major League Baseball team to play in Cuba was the Orioles, who traveled to Havana for the first game in a home-and-home series with the Cuban National Team 17 year...

#TBT: Tyler Wilson impresses in first major league start
We're at that point in spring training where tough decisions must be made. If you read Roch Kubatko's morning post on the importance of today's Orioles exhibition game, then you know it's a big day for starting pitcher Tyler Wilson, who, amid Miguel Gonzalez's command struggles this spring, finds himself competing for a spot in the starting rotation. Wilson has a 2.89 ERA over four spring appearances, including two starts, while giving up just four runs (three earned) and 11 hits. With...
