An "emotional" first promotion to the majors for Casey

Nationals
PITTSBURGH – Donovan Casey was sitting in a meeting with his Rochester Red Wings teammates Thursday afternoon, learning about nutrition, when manager Matt LeCroy told the group someone had just been called up by the Nationals. Casey, a 26-year-old outfielder, just assumed it was one of the pitchers, probably a reliever. Until the name that came out

The development versus need argument rages on with the Orioles. Not inside the walls of the warehouse or the manager’s office. Among fans and media. The baseball gods keep poking the Orioles. Keep challenging their plan and their resolve. Don’t want to rush the young pitching prospects? Well, what about a lockout and short spring training and injur

Another look at a walk-off win over the Yankees

Orioles
Sometimes you don’t need the hit with runners in scoring position. Sometimes a walk will do. It did for the Orioles late last night. We’ve seen many games at Oriole Park over the years that were close between the Orioles and Yankees, games when New York made the key play late to beat the Orioles. Friday was not that night. The Orioles' unheralded b

Orioles
The Orioles' pitching was stellar throughout. The night kept getting longer, though, and their offense kept coming up short.  Until it finally didn't. Well, sort of. On a night of outstanding pitching by both teams, a great pitcher finally cracked. It was Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman. Chapman got ahead of Ramón Urías 0-2 and then walked him with

Top of lineup makes it easy for Fedde and bullpen
Mark Zuckerman
Nationals
PITTSBURGH – They got plenty of production from the top of their lineup. They got the five innings they needed from their starter. And by the time they needed to turn to their bullpen, the Nationals held a comfortable enough lead for manager Davey Martinez to bypass a few of his best relievers and save them for another day. All in all, that spelled

PITTSBURGH – The Nationals placed Dee Strange-Gordon, who remains in the team’s downtown hotel with an illness, on the injured list today. The club did not specify which IL the utilityman was placed on, nor divulged what his ailment is, which is how they handled situations the last two seasons when a player tested positive for COVID-19.

The Orioles have lost their opening day starter, lefty John Means, for an undetermined length of time. Now, as they await further word on Means' injury, manager Brandon Hyde will try to piece his rotation together and decide the next steps for a pitching staff minus its ace. Means left his start on Wednesday night against Milwaukee at Camden Yards

The Orioles have placed left-hander John Means on the 10-day injured list with a left elbow strain. The move is retroactive to yesterday. Reliever Travis Lakins Sr. had his contract selected from Triple-A Norfolk.
