O's minors system gets inaugural Minor League Baseball Sportsmanship Award

The Orioles' minor leagues have come a long way under the Mike Elias regime to become the No. 1 ranked organization in the majors. The O's no longer claim the top spot, but they do remain as one of baseball's top farms. Today, they got another, different honor. The Orioles organization was named the recipient of the inaugural MiLB Sportsmanship Awa

Remaining items on Orioles' shopping list and Mateo's expanded role

The Orioles haven’t announced their agreements with outfielder Tyler O’Neill and catcher Gary Sánchez, whose contracts become official after they pass their physicals. Two important items will crossed off the shopping list, with O’Neill replacing Anthony Santander in right and Sánchez replacing James McCann as the backup. The position side appears

Soto heading to Queens, adding another challenge in NL East

Good morning, Nationals fans. For those of you who weren’t up late Sunday night and missed the news … Juan Soto is going to be a New York Met. For a very long time. For more money than any professional North American athlete has ever received. Hours before the Winter Meetings officially commenced in Dallas, Soto and the Mets agreed to a 15-year, $7

Skipper Brandon Hyde on a few topics on WBAL Radio show

At his offseason home in Florida last Thursday night, while it was very cold in Baltimore, O’s manager Brandon Hyde joined us from a much warmer climate. When Brett Hollander and I hosted the season debut edition of the "Hot Stove" radio show on WBAL Radio, Hyde was a guest. Not to rub it in, but when asked how the weather was in his neighborhood a

Last year’s Winter Meetings appeared to confirm the handful of Orioles prospects deemed untouchable, at least to some rival executives - a group that included Jackson Holliday, Coby Mayo and Heston Kjerstad. This week could present an opportunity for media in Dallas to glean whether some statuses have changed. Holliday projects as the starting seco

The Orioles have agreed to a contract with a right-handed hitter with thump, filling one key need on their offseason wish list. They came to terms with free agent outfielder Tyler O’Neill on a three-year deal for $49.5 million. The deal has yet to be officially announced. O’Neill is the first free agent the O’s acquired with a multi-year deal since

The Nationals recently announced plans for their 20th anniversary celebration in 2025, with a number of special events and giveaways promised, not to mention a ranking of the 20 greatest moments in club history. We here were already planning our own 20th anniversary celebration, and why wait until 2025 to get started with that? The Nats already hav

What can be expected of the Orioles this week? Maybe the unexpected, like when they didn’t select a player in last year’s Rule 5 draft and made a huge splash by signing closer Craig Kimbrel to a $13 million contract for the 2024 season. With the 24th pick in this year’s Rule 5, the Orioles most likely will pass again rather than try to carry a play

For Orioles lefty Trevor Rogers, the key to getting some velocity back and hopefully his previous big league form with it could come from his legs. During this previous interview here with Rogers, he said weight room work will be big for him this winter. And that he learned via trips to Driveline Baseball in Phoenix, that his lower body strength wa

The work required to build the 26-man roster for Opening Day is a long way from completion. The surface hasn’t even been scratched. At least one starter and reliever, a right-handed bat – likely for the outfield – and a backup catcher bring boxes that still need checking. The Orioles are on the clock but the ticking isn’t really that loud. Plenty o
