WASHINGTON -- Of all the issues plaguing the Orioles during their 20-26 start -- their record following Saturday’s 13-3 loss at Nationals Park that matches their low-water mark -- the lack of consistent offense may be the most puzzling. Baltimore’s 2026 lineup was constructed to be one of the expected

WASHINGTON -- If Jordan Westburg had been healthy for the entire 2026 season, he likely would have made at least 140 starts at third base for the Orioles. The hot corner was set to be the 27-year-old infielder’s primary position, as he has proven he can be a strong player

WASHINGTON -- Jordan Westburg will not play any games during the 2026 season.

BALTIMORE -- The storylines surrounding the Orioles’ early struggles have been consistent during the first month-and-a-half of the 2026 season. They’re not playing clean enough baseball. Their starting pitching has been disappointing (particularly the performances of projected co-aces Trevor Rogers and Kyle Bradish). They’re not hitting left-handed starters. They’re not

BALTIMORE -- The Orioles' lengthy list of injury concerns continues to grow more than a quarter into a season in which the club has been struggling to find consistency -- and more bad health luck hasn’t helped. Prior to Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Yankees, outfielder Dylan Beavers was placed

BALTIMORE -- Coby Mayo wasn’t supposed to be in the Orioles’ starting lineup on Monday. The 24-year-old only became the designated hitter, slotting into the No. 6 hole, after Samuel Basallo was scratched due to left knee discomfort, finding out he’d be playing only about an hour before the 6:36

BALTIMORE -- The Orioles turned one of their best defensive plays of the season during the seventh inning of Sunday's 2-1 win over the A's at Camden Yards, as Leody Taveras threw out Carlos Cortes at the plate to end the frame and preserve the club's one-run lead. Catcher Samuel

Protecting a 2-1 lead for the Orioles in the eighth inning of Sunday’s win over the A's, rookie right-hander Anthony Nunez worked himself into a tough spot, and then out of it. The 24-year-old issued a pair of one-out walks before striking out Brent Rooker and getting Tyler Soderstrom to

BALTIMORE -- An interesting development is coming in Jackson Holliday’s rehab assignment.

BALTIMORE -- During a mid-week bullpen session, Kyle Bradish stated a clear objective, one he wanted to carry into his next start: Throw more curveballs. In Bradish’s opinion, the curve had been a bright spot during his sluggish start to the season. So, why not try an uptick in the

BALTIMORE -- One day after exiting the Orioles’ 4-3 loss in Thursday night’s finale in Miami due to left forearm discomfort, Cade Povich has hit the injured list with a new injury designation. Povich was placed on the 15-day IL prior to Friday’s opener vs. the A’s due to left

NEW YORK -- The narrative was set from the moment the Orioles’ team buses arrived at Yankee Stadium on Friday afternoon, even if no player nor staff member wanted to address it. Every American League East series is big, but this four-gamer to open May would serve as a measuring

NEW YORK -- Few MLB teams have been as plagued by injuries over the past two seasons than the Orioles. And perhaps no player has had worse injury luck than Jordan Westburg. More tough news came regarding the 27-year-old infielder on Monday.

NEW YORK -- The Orioles have added a new veteran arm to their bullpen from outside the organization. Baltimore signed right-hander Lou Trivino to a Major League deal on Monday, optioning rookie righty Trey Gibson to Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move to make room for Trivino on the 26-man

NEW YORK -- Trey Gibson smiled, patted the inside of his glove and let out just a smidge of frustration with himself. The 23-year-old right-hander then received a pat on the shoulder from Coby Mayo, tapped Adley Rutschman on the chest, fist-bumped Weston Wilson, Jeremiah Jackson and Blaze Alexander and

NEW YORK -- JR and Karen Gibson had been staying at a hotel near Stetson University in Florida the past few nights, as their daughter, Nikki (the youngest of their two kids), was wrapping up her college softball career for Florida Gulf Coast University. They expected to be there through

NEW YORK -- The Orioles have several exciting pitching prospects at Triple-A Norfolk, a group that made a positive impression on Craig Albernaz during his first Spring Training as manager. Now, it's time for one of those young arms to make his MLB debut. Trey Gibson (Baltimore's No. 3 prospect
