BOSTON – The Livan Soto shell game was played again this afternoon. The Orioles claimed Soto on waivers from the Angels Feb. 8, and the Angels claimed him 10 days later. Soto is on the move again, going back to the Orioles today in a waiver claim. They optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk. The utility infielder got into in 22 games with the Angels betw

During my postgame show on WBAL Radio last night, a caller said the Orioles win showed they are resilient and can overcome adversity. Well, they indeed did do that in a 7-5 win over the Boston Red Sox. They are now 7-4 overall, 3-2 on this road trip and won another series, and can sweep it tonight behind Grayson Rodriguez (2-0, 2.19 ERA) at Fenway
Playing with "hair on fire," Nats are stealing bases at record pace

SAN FRANCISCO – The most surprising thing about the Nationals’ 7-1 loss to the Giants on Wednesday? Nobody on the team stole more than one base during the game. This wouldn’t normally qualify as any kind of surprise. Except the 2024 Nationals have made such feats on the basepaths so commonplace, it’s suddenly shocking when it doesn’t happen on any

BOSTON – The reporter approached Ryan Mountcastle’s locker yesterday, asked if he had a minute and explained that only one topic could be covered. The important one. You know it. Mountcastle turned around, smiled and said, “Jackson Holliday.” Of course. It wasn’t the best lobster rolls in New England. Players learned about Holliday’s promotion late

BOSTON – Jackson Holliday stretched with his teammates on the field. He took batting practice while father Matt and younger brother Ethan stood behind the cage. He paused to sign some autographs before grabbing his bats and heading back to the clubhouse. Fans yelled his name. He looked every bit like a major leaguer, except for that youthful face,
Hyde on Holliday: "Hopefully he can just relax and play confidently and have fun out there"

BOSTON – Manager Brandon Hyde prepared for tonight's game against the Red Sox but also relived the “tough decision” made in spring training to reassign 20-year-old Jackson Holliday. Again. How Holliday was playing a new position, how the first-overall draft pick in 2022 needed more exposure to left-handed pitching. “Just to get him more Triple-A ex

It's the Orioles' 11th game of the 2024 season, but for 20-year-old Jackson Holliday, it's his big league debut. Less than two years since the O's selected him No. 1 overall in July 2022, Holliday is in the majors. He will bat ninth and play second base tonight in Game 2 of this three-game series at Boston. In 10 Triple-A games for Norfolk, Hollida

SAN FRANCISCO – A wild, eventful, successful opening series to this long West Coast trip gave way to an entirely undramatic loss in this afternoon’s finale. A Nationals club that did so many things well – and overcame a sudden string of injuries – to take two straight from the Giants the previous two nights, did little well during a 7-1 loss at Ora
Holliday talks about making it to the majors

BOSTON – One wall in the cramped visiting clubhouse at Fenway Park has room for five lockers, with nameplates today that sound like their own talent pipeline. Cowser, Westburg, Rutschman, Holliday, Henderson. High draft picks by the Orioles, including two first-overall selections and three top overall prospects in baseball. A sight that can't be cl
