Josh Rogers was the 11th starter used by the Orioles this season. Two of the 11, Kevin Gausman and Chris Tillman, are gone....
BALTIMORE—The Orioles are headed out of town for a three-city, three time-zone trip, and won’t return home until Sept. 11. In their August home finale, they produced something they hadn’t done all season—a three-game sweep. In their first 13 games against the Toronto Blue Jays this season, the Orioles lost 12, including...
BALTIMORE—With the temperature in the mid-90s and still more than a month of regular-season games remaining, it may be hard to think about spring training.

BALTIMORE—On Saturday, major league rosters can expand from 25 players to 40, and the Orioles will add to their roster then—or shortly thereafter.

BALTIMORE—As auditions continue for the 2019 starting rotation, David Hess has impressed the Orioles with his second wind.

BALTIMORE—It was a surprising call to have a team with 94 losses showcased on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball. But ESPN always likes a chance to put the New York Yankees on national TV, and the Orioles came along for the ride. The national audience got to see the Orioles lose for the...
BALTIMORE—Some fans were excited when the Orioles announced they had signed outfielder Isaac Bellony, a native of the Dominican Republic, this week. It’s their first announced signing since the team decided last month it would re-enter the international market. The Orioles haven’t produced a homegrown Dominican player since infielder Pedro Florimon played...
BALTIMORE—It’s getting to be an old story for the Orioles. The starting pitcher throws creditably, but the offense can’t come through. It was the case in the second game of the Orioles’ day/night doubleheader when Andrew Cashner allowed four runs, three earned, in seven innings. The Orioles got just three hits against...
