Fedde making rehab start at Rochester, Gore could throw “light bullpen” on road

Davey Martinez had some encouraging updates on a couple of recovering pitchers before Wednesday’s getaway game against the Cubs. Erick Fedde is lined up to make his first rehab start with Triple-A Rochester this afternoon as the Red Wings face the Worcester Red Sox. Fedde has been on the 15-day injured list since July 30 (retroactive to July 27) wi

Orioles lineup vs. Blue Jays

The Orioles will attempt to sweep the Blue Jays this afternoon, winning five straight games against their division rivals and perhaps take sole possession of the third wild card spot. They would move past Toronto for third place in the American League East. To review: the Orioles have won 10 of the last 14 games, 12 of 18 and 26 of 37. They’re 25-2

Cory Abbott will face his former team for the first time as he makes his fourth start for the Nats.

Inside Aníbal Sánchez’s return to Nationals rotation after year off

Aníbal Sánchez was sitting at home on his couch when he realized he was missing something. The adrenaline rush of pitching in a major league game, something he experienced for 14 straight years, was calling.  The Monday after Thanksgiving, one of Sánchez’s friends wanted to work on his mechanics. As the two began throwing, Sánchez realized that his

The upcoming winter should also be filled with excitement in Birdland

If Birdland is excited about how this 2022 season is shaking out, just wait until the offseason. Sure, no games will be played, but the build up for the 2023 Orioles and anticipation of a season where the club should contend from the first game will be strong.  Sometimes the hot stove season is almost as good as the regular season. This could be on

Two straight losses to the Rays and a pending trip to Toronto were supposed to finally break the Orioles. The skeptics keep circling the dates for the club’s demise. Waiting for players to start turning into pumpkins. Well, here they are, a half-game behind the Blue Jays for the last wild card spot and having a chance at a sweep. The Orioles have w

The Nationals managed to rally to get Patrick Corbin off the hook for his 17th loss of the season by scoring in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings. They managed to rally to tie the game again in the bottom of the 10th, thanks to CJ Abrams’ well-timed first hit since joining the club. But because they couldn’t deliver one final clutch hit in the

TORONTO - Alek Manoah was feeling himself. The imposing righty skipped off the mound, his 6-foot-6, 285-pound frame floating over the infield grass. He had just picked up his seventh strikeout by getting Ramón Urías swinging on a fastball up and in, capping off his fourth consecutive shutout inning to open the game. Things were going well.

Steve Melewski
Orioles
After beating the Toronto Blue Jays just five times all last season and not winning one of the six series the teams played, the Orioles matched that win total against Toronto in 2022 last night with 12 more games to play. The 2021 Birds went 5-14 and 0-5-1 in series versus the Blue Jays. With last night’s 7-3 win at Rogers Centre the current Birds
McKenna continues to contribute as fourth outfielder, "ultimate teammate"
Paul Mancano
Orioles
TORONTO - Speed. Positional versatility. Microwavable offense. These are the qualities teams usually seek in a fourth outfielder. Ryan McKenna certainly checks all those boxes. But what has made the 25-year-old such a crucial component of an Orioles team that sits just 1 ½ games out of a wild card spot has been the outfielder’s eagerness to deliver
Ruiz gets night off after taking a beating behind plate

Monday night’s game had barely begun before Davey Martinez found himself emerging from the dugout with director of athletic training Paul Lessard to check on Keibert Ruiz, who had just taken a foul ball off his facemask and appeared to be dazed to some extent. Ruiz would remain in the game, and he would catch all nine innings of the Nationals’ 5-4

The Orioles won the series opener last night against the Blue Jays in Toronto, and they’re 1 ½ games back for the second and third wild card spots. They’ve gone 5-2 against the Blue Jays this season, including four wins in a row for the first time since Sept. 28, 2016-April 14, 2017, and for the first time in a single season since Aug, 7-Sept. 17,

The Nationals had won the opener of only one of their last 12 series entering this one. And the single outlier, believe it or not, was against the Dodgers last month. That’s also the only series the Nats have gone on to win during this stretch. So perhaps Monday night’s victory over the Cubs portends even more to come before this series wraps up We

After CJ Abrams was promoted to make his Nationals debut on Monday, another prospect from the trade of Juan Soto and Josh Bell to the Padres is rising through the ranks of the farm system. Robert Hassell III was promoted from high Single-A Wilmington to Double-A Harrisburg today, as the Senators open a six-game homestand against the Erie SeaWolves
After scoreless outings with IronBirds, Cade Povich moves up to Bowie

Talk about making a nice first impression. And a second one too. On Aug. 2, the Orioles traded closer Jorge López to the Minnesota Twins for a package of four pitching prospects, the headliner of which was lefty Cade Povich. The 22-year-old Povich was assigned to high Single-A Aberdeen. In his first IronBirds outing, he pitched six scoreless inning
