#Mike Baumann

A funny thing has happened on the way to what assorted baseball media figures assumed was another 100+ loss season for the Orioles. They've started winning games, sitting on a.500 record of 46-46 at the All-Star break. Instead of fans having to wonder when the prospects will start arriving to turn things from dismal to bearable, now it's more like…

The Orioles have not ruled out signing a veteran free agent for the rotation, but their choices are dwindling by the day. Baltimore could acquire a top arm via trade, but it's hardly a guarantee. Fans cannot fix up the O's and Marlins on a blind date regardless of how strong a match they appear to be. It's perfectly plausible that Mike Elias and…

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…

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 Blue Jays, who'll begin the postseason with+1300 World Series odds, will give the ball to Mitch White. The 27-year-old isn't expected to see much playoff action, if any, and with the postseason starting in two days he'll be asked to eat a lot of innings regardless of how he looks. If you're an Orioles backer that's great news. White has been…

After a win at Fenway Park on Monday, the Baltimore Orioles had every chance to make a serious run at snatching a playoff berth away from the Seattle Mariners. The Boston Red Sox had other ideas, however, and have delivered a potentially mortal blow to Baltimore's postseason hopes with back-to-back wins on Tuesday and Wednesday. With the Seattle…

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.
