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,…

Throughout the rest of the offseason, as the Orioles deliberate the best way to add another starting pitcher to the rotation, the calculus could shift the organization's thinking more toward pursuing a trade than signing a free agent.

Where might they turn for an external replacement? According to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal (subscription required),…

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…

It seems we've reached the slow part of the offseason. There's not a lot of Orioles news to talk about right now, outside of a recent utility player signing. Because we're at this point of the offseason, I figured I'd predict the Baltimore Orioles Opening Day infield. For the sake of this post, let's say there are no moves made to change…

How he arrived: Waiver claim from Detroit Tigers, 11/9/22 Who left: Aramis Garcia outrighted, 10/30/22 There will eventually come a day where the Orioles run out of former Astros draft picks who were picked by Houston when Mike Elias was the most influential voice in their draft room. That day has not yet arrived. Another one of those players, Daz…

If the Orioles aren't the most surprising team over the first half of the season, they're certainly among the top. Just about every expert who weighed in on the team before the 2022 campaign began expected 100+ losses again, and even fans who had some hopes of modest improvement didn't expect things to be too much better than that. With the Orioles…

There was a bit of good news for the Orioles yesterday: Ramón Urías won a Gold Glove for his work at third base. It is a deserved honor, although you would be forgiven if it took you by surprise. Jorge Mateo always seemed like the most likely Oriole to win a Gold Glove in 2022, but he wasn't even named a finalist at shortstop. Cedric Mullins did…

With 24 wins in their last 33 games, the Baltimore Orioles enter their final 50 regular season games occupying an AL wild-card spot. Raise your hand if you saw that coming when they were nine games under.500 in early July. If you have your hand up right now, you're either affiliated with the Orioles in some way or a very, very bad liar. As unlikely…

Carlos Correa made two very interesting decisions over the past 12 months. The first was to leave the high-flying Houston Astros to sign with the middle-tier, struggling Minnesota Twins. The second decision was to opt out of his newly signed deal with the Twins after just one season. The two-time All-Star will be a highly sought-after prospect in…

Saying goodbye to the team last night was full of mixed emotions. A little bitterness at having come so close to the playoffs just to finish 3.5 games out. A little anger that we couldn't impose our will on the dislikable Blue Jays. A little gnawing anxiety, scanning the faces of the players as they took the field for a collective hat tip to the…

They're going to toy with my emotions, aren't they? The Orioles won again last night, a 6-0 victory over the Houston Astros. It's their third straight win, and thanks to another loss by the Seattle Mariners, the O's are now just three games back of the final AL Wild Card spot. A tall task remains, and since the Mariners already took the season…

Ever since the 2018 Orioles saw their hopes evaporate before they even got out of the month of April, the biggest question there was for fans of the team was simple: When are these guys going to be good again? To the surprise of just about everyone's preseason expectations for the team, the 2022 squad gave us three good months in June, July, and…

There is still a chance for the Orioles to make the playoffs. That chance is slim, and it would be inadvisable to bet on such a circumstance, but it's possible. That represents a drastic shift in tone from just a week ago, when the Orioles had a big four-game set against the Blue Jays ahead of them, and fans were dreaming of a magical October…

BALTIMORE -- Sometimes a baseball game is like a blind alley. It leads nowhere. On other days there's a trap door at the end of the alley with twists, turns and spider webs. How these kind of games get from the first inning to the ninth is hard to explain. Even when every pitch is charted and timed. The Guardians played a game like that Sunday…
