Yesterday was a fairly quiet day for MLB roster moves, with Carlos Correa finally having successfully completed a physical and signed with Minnesota to take the last remaining big-name free agent off the market. But there was still some notable baseball news, as ESPN's Buster Olney reported that all Triple-A parks will use an electronic strike…

The trend of dominant pitching and well-rounded teams in MLB continued this year as the NL East went on a great run with the Phillies, Mets, and Braves all making a long streak at the end of the season. With Sandy Alcantara pitching at the rate that he was, and Max Fried and Kyle Wright both most likely making their individual Cy Young pushes this…

As you know, predicting baseball is a fool's errand. It's also the most common activity of sportswriters during the offseason. When they're not writing about which team Carlos Correa signed with today, they're writing about what's going to happen in the coming season. Or, in the case of Will Leitch at MLB.com, what's going to happen in the next ten…

The answers are, of course: 2013: Red Sox over Cardinals 2014: Giants over Royals 2015: Royals over Mets 2016: Cubs over Indians 2017: Astros over Dodgers 2018: Red Sox over Dodgers 2019: Nationals…

The MLB offseason is winding down as we are getting closer and closer to pitchers and catchers reporting to start another full baseball season. We have seen some big moves made across the board this offseason, as playoff teams tooled up their rosters to make another series push at a title in 2023. Here are the early World Series odds with a little…

Well, that was disappointing. The Orioles had a chance to go.500 in the month of May with a win last night. But instead they laid an absolute egg, falling 10-0 to the visiting Mariners. The lineup that Brandon Hyde deployed was this team's A-squad. Cedric Mullins was back atop the lineup. Adley Rutschman was behind the plate. Trey Mancini was in as…

Throughout the offseason the CBS Sports MLB experts will bring you a weekly Batting Around roundtable breaking down pretty much anything. The latest news, a historical question, thoughts about the future of baseball, all sorts of stuff. Last week we discussed Bryan Reynolds' future. This week we're going to look at contenders with unfinished…

Pitchers and catchers report next month. Somewhere in the middle of it. A long way from Opening Day on March 30 in Boston, but the distance is shrinking. The holiday themes are over unless I'm suddenly motivated by Valentine's Day. Nothing so far about Cupid's arrow, but I decided this morning to take a stab at some 2023 predictions. Here are five,…

After an All-Star break festooned with nostalgia, home runs, and bullpen dominance, the MLB schedule restarts Thursday, with some 70 games remaining for each team. So before the second half begins, let's dive into the top 10 story lines to monitor between now and October-because there's a whole lot of baseball left, and just as much drama on the…

The rebuild in Baltimore has entered its fourth year under new management, although 2020 felt like a waste with the minor league season canceled due to COVID-19. The Orioles aren't any closer to contending as they wait to make the first overall selection in the amateur draft. They're undermanned in baseball's toughest division, especially in the…

If you're a parent and take road trips with your kids, you've no doubt heard the oft-muttered indignations from your back seat drivers: "are we there yet?" No other recent excitement has surrounded the prospect of a promotion to the major leagues than the possible call-up of Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman. But wait, a catcher after all? I played…

With MLB free agency winding down, the league is beginning to take shape. Some teams have drastically improved their chances of competing in 2023 based on swift offseason moves. The New York Mets just pulled off a stunner to land Carlos Correa after the shortstop had previously agreed to a deal with the San Francisco Giants. Other teams such as the…

The Baltimore Orioles have been one of the biggest surprises in the MLB during the 2022 season. They have hung around at the backend of the American League wild card race for most of the season, and after their 10-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays last night, they have a half-game lead over the Rays for the final wild card spot in the AL. Nobody…

The Orioles' recent signing of Adam Frazier was simultaneously infuriating and intriguing. Although an All-Star in 2021, Frazier was poor for the Mariners last season, and while he might bounce back in 2023, he is far from the impact bat that this fan base was hoping a team with supposed playoff ambitions would attract this winter. However, at $8…

The 2022 Major League Baseball season continues on Monday, Aug. 8 with several intriguing matchups. One that sticks out among the rest is an AL East showdown between the Toronto Blue Jays (60-48) and Baltimore Orioles (56-52). The Blue Jay shave been one of the hotter teams since the MLB All-Star Break and enter this game after splitting a…

When Baltimore took Ben McDonald with the top choice in the 1989 draft, it was just one small part of a thrilling season for the Orioles. They had the No. 1 pick because the previous year had been terrible, but by the time they actually made the selection, the Orioles were in first place in the AL East, on their way to becoming one of baseball's…

Believe it or not, the Baltimore Orioles - who previously occupied dead last as a moneymaker for bettors - returned major winning potential ahead of the MLB All-Star break. The same franchise that labored to a 254-455 record, and finished a combined 191 games behind the American League East powers from 2017-2021, would have won bettors the most…

In time, we will certainly look back on this season with fondness, regardless of whether these Orioles find some way to beat the odds and sneak into the playoffs with a final stretch run. Of course, there will be the inevitable "what if?" questions. Like, what if Adley Rutschman starts the season in the big leagues, or what if Grayson Rodriguez…

There has been plenty of disappointment around Baltimore as the Orioles have not had an active offseason in what seemed like a make-or-break free agency for the future of the squad and the sake of the 2023 team. It especially seemed like an offseason where adding top-of-the-rotation pitching would be a primary goal for the team but that has yet to…

Throughout the 162-game MLB season, there are always unpredictable or flat-out unexpected things that happen that can be filed under the ever-growing file of "that's baseball," in the words of Colorado Rockies manager Harry Ralston Black. Sometimes, they are just on a player level (this player breaks out, this player got injured, this player…

Just being able to write about the Detroit Tigers and any sort of realistic shot at making the playoffs is so refreshing, when such thoughts have been non existent for the past five years, basically since former owner Mike Ilitch passed away. But here we are, with the much heralded prospects arriving in the major leagues and the team actually…

Over the past few seasons, MLB teams from across the league have been starting to lock up their young stars to long-term contracts earlier and earlier into their service time. In doing so, teams are avoiding going to arbitration with their top players and giving them guaranteed money through their prime years. Some players are receiving these deals…

The home run is the most over-inflated stat in the history of baseball. For some reason, the value of hitting a home run means more to many than actually being the better player. Right now, Steven Kwan is sixth in odds to win the AL Rookie of the Year award. Our very own Betsided had Kwan sitting at sixth not that long ago. The top cat is the…

The long winter is almost over. Orioles baseball will be back in our lives tomorrow, or if it really rains a lot in Boston tomorrow, then it'll be back on Friday. The best thing that can be hoped for this season is that baseball in general, and the Orioles specifically, can get back to having normal problems, instead of pandemic problems. The…

It is decreed in the ancient scrolls. Despite employing two of the greatest ballplayers in history, the Angels cannot finish higher than.500. It's an immutable law of baseball physics that cannot be bent or broken, but that won't stop the club from trying. Early in the offseason, they've been the most active MLB team, signing Tyler Anderson and…

Bobby Witt Jr. is enjoying a solid rookie season, becoming the fifth player to hit at least 20 home runs and steal at least 20 bases in his very first season. He has had some ups and downs but it is clear he at least has the skillset to be a cornerstone player for this franchise, if not a league star. Having made the Opening Day roster, Witt is…

On March 31, 2019, Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Elvis Luciano became the first player born in the 2000s to reach the big leagues.

Earlier this week, the Orioles added top pitching prospect Grayson Rodriguez and four other prospects to their 40-man roster to keep them protected from this year's edition of the Rule 5 draft. The team has added at least five players in this way in each of the last three Novembers. Do they have the prospect depth where they will be adding that…

Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! I hope you had a nice weekend. The hot stove is heating up with rumors, speculation, and a few players being signed to return to their 2022 team. But for the next few days, it's time for awards. The Orioles have an interest, especially in tonight's and tomorrow's awards, which are Rookie of the Year and Manager of the…

The 2022 MLB season is over, and the Astros have been crowned World Series champions. Now, the only thing left to hand out is the hardware for the top players and managers. This year, the awards could carry some extra significance for a few players in particular. AL MVP finalist Aaron Judge and AL Cy Young finalist Justin Verlander are both free…

The Baltimore Orioles will host the Boston Red Sox on Friday night.

However, he got injured on May 22 and did not pitch for a…

LAS VEGAS - Perhaps the biggest question facing the Blue Jays this off-season is whether they'll trade from their enviable catching depth to address other needs. Thanks to Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk and Gabriel Moreno, Blue Jays catchers generated an MLB-best 7.3 WAR in 2022. They combined to lead MLB in batting average (.273) and on-base…

Greetings, Birdland. We're deep into the MLB postseason now, with just one game remaining in the ALDS between Cleveland and the Yankees, while the Houston Astros await the winner, and with the NLCS between San Diego & Philly starting tonight as well. Most of the MLB world was rooting for the Cinderella Seattle Mariners, but they lost three…

Xander Bogaerts made perhaps the easiest decision of his career on Monday afternoon, when he officially opted out of his team-friendly contract with the Red Sox to become a free agent for the first time. Bogaerts, 30, has been the most productive offensive shortstop in baseball for the last five years. Since 2018, his.880 OPS is clear and away the…
