BALTIMORE -- Make that 12 Orioles players on the injured list as of Sunday afternoon -- with another IL move coming for the club on Monday. Prior to Baltimore's 6-2 win over San Francisco in the series finale at Camden Yards, outfielder Tyler O'Neill was placed on the 7-day concussion

BALTIMORE -- Cade Povich may have thought he would be spending his 26th birthday at Triple-A Norfolk, where he opened the season. Instead, the left-hander turned in a performance on Sunday afternoon that earned him a standing ovation at Camden Yards. Clearly, it was a much more enjoyable way to

BALTIMORE -- As an 11-year MLB veteran, Zach Eflin has endured plenty of injuries. The 32-year-old right-hander knows how to go through the rehab process, especially after spending this past offseason recovering from the lumbar microdiscectomy (back surgery) he underwent last August. But Eflin had never felt anything like the

BALTIMORE -- Not again, right? That’s all Orioles fans could help but think on Saturday, when the injury bug struck yet again. First, Adley Rutschman went on the 10-day injured list due to left ankle inflammation. Then, Ryan Mountcastle exited in the second inning of the game vs. the Giants

BALTIMORE -- Ever seen a massive flat-screen television sitting on the infield grass of a baseball field angled toward first base? Players on the Orioles' roster hadn't, nor had manager Craig Albernaz. That is, until Saturday afternoon, when first-base coach Jason Bourgeois had one set up during the club's pregame

BALTIMORE -- Through the first 13 games of his Orioles career, Pete Alonso hasn’t quite been himself. He’s not slugging home runs from the heart of the order. He’s not hitting well enough. The Polar Bear isn’t showing the level of production that landed him a five-year, $155 million contract

BALTIMORE -- Before the Orioles' City Connect 2.0 uniforms were released on Thursday, some of the team's players were given an advance look at the new threads. They donned the set for a photoshoot and had a chance to get acclimated with the unis they'll be wearing sporadically at home

Who are the best players born on each day of the year? We have a list for every day on the calendar. Here’s a subjective ranking of the top five for April 11.

BALTIMORE -- Oriole Park at Camden Yards has been one of MLB’s most gorgeous ballparks since first opening its gates on April 6, 1992. It looks just as great now as it did then, especially after the extensive upgrades and renovations it underwent this past winter. So, it only made

BALTIMORE -- Zach Eflin’s 2026 season is over after only one start. Eflin underwent Tommy John (UCL reconstruction) surgery on his right elbow on Wednesday, the Orioles announced. After undergoing imaging, the 32-year-old right-hander received a second opinion on his injured right elbow during a visit with Dr. Keith Meister

CHICAGO -- With two left-handed relievers now on the injured list (Keegan Akin and Dietrich Enns), the Orioles made a trade to add another southpaw to their bullpen mix. Baltimore acquired lefty Nick Raquet from St. Louis in exchange for infield/outfield prospect Brayden Smith, a 13th-round Draft pick in 2025,

PITTSBURGH -- This wasn’t how things were supposed to go for the Orioles. They appeared ready to leave the trials and tribulations experienced during their challenging 2025 season in the past and return to the ways of the postseason teams of ‘23 and ‘24. The results were expected to be

PITTSBURGH -- Cade Povich's first MLB appearance of 2026 came sooner than expected. The Orioles recalled Povich from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, and the 25-year-old left-hander pitched 5 2/3 innings of two-run relief in an 8-2 loss to the Pirates at PNC Park. Although it hadn’t been 15 days since

PITTSBURGH -- It’s been a tough go early for the 2026 Orioles, and Saturday’s 3-2 loss to the Pirates at PNC Park was a microcosm of what’s gone wrong during a difficult 3-5 start. From the missed opportunities on offense, to the less-than-ideal defensive play, to perhaps even the usage

PITTSBURGH -- Since joining the Orioles on Feb. 5, Blaze Alexander has said multiple times his goal on defense is to “be an athlete.” The 26-year-old utility man has many ways he can do that, considering he’s capable of playing anywhere in the infield or outfield. What Alexander did on

PITTSBURGH -- A new update has emerged pertaining to the status of Orioles right-hander Zach Eflin's injured right elbow. Manager Craig Albernaz said prior to Friday's series opener in Pittsburgh that Eflin is traveling to Dallas to get a second opinion on the elbow from Dr. Keith Meister. Eflin, who

BALTIMORE -- When the Orioles need a pitcher to step up and fill an unexpected hole on their staff -- and it could be any hole -- they can always count on Albert Suárez to do so. The 36-year-old right-hander has proven that for three seasons now. It happened on

BALTIMORE -- With two outs in the top of the ninth inning at Camden Yards on Wednesday, a 1-2 fastball from Orioles right-hander Albert Suárez landed near the upper-outside corner of the strike zone. The Rangers’ Evan Carter didn’t swing, allowing it to be called a ball. However, Baltimore had

BALTIMORE -- If it felt like neither Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers nor Rangers righty Nathan Eovaldi gave up many runs last year, that’s because they didn’t. In fact, entering Wednesday, those two pitchers owned the best ERAs in MLB since the beginning of the 2025 season (minimum 100 innings), with

BALTIMORE -- Five games into the 2026 season, the injury bug has returned to Baltimore. And once again, the bad luck has struck right-hander Zach Eflin. Eflin exited Tuesday’s 8-5 loss to the Rangers at Camden Yards due to right elbow discomfort, and he was placed on the 15-day injured

BALTIMORE -- Not many pitchers attempt pickoff throws on Pete Alonso, who is by no means a speedster. The Polar Bear isn’t typically expecting it, especially not on a full-count pitch. So when it happened on Tuesday night -- with the toss coming from his former Mets teammate Jacob deGrom,

BALTIMORE -- It’s too early in the Orioles’ season to read too much into most early developments. After four games, they’re only 2.5% of the way through a 162-game marathon, one that will feature plenty of highs, lows and everything in between.
