A Month Away From The Trade Deadline
The Baltimore Orioles are currently seven games out of a playoff spot. While such a deficit isn’t completely insurmountable, it is still the kind of deficit that makes it pretty clear that they should be sellers at this year’s trade deadline. So, let’s explore some of...
What’s driving Cedric Mullins’ slump?
At the start of the 2025 season, when the Baltimore Orioles' offense was sputtering, Cedric Mullins looked like a beacon of consistency and power. Through March and April, he slashed an impressive .278/.412/.515, tallying six home runs, 17 runs scored, 20 RBI, and...
Looking At Experienced Managerial Candidates
On May 17th, the Baltimore Orioles fired Brandon Hyde, giving them plenty of time to explore managerial candidates for next season. If I had to place money on who they hire, I’d wager on another assistant coach from a winning franchise. Hyde was hired after being an...
’25 Seemingly Over Before Memorial Day; Thoughts On ’26
For the second time in a week, the Orioles have been swept by the Minnesota Twins. The Orioles are 11 games under .500 on May 15th. They entered today 25th in Runs Scored, and 27th in ERA. Ouch. It's a horribly disappointing year. Give me a quick October exit anytime...

10 Games Under .500 On May 8th – Yikes!
After getting swept in Minnesota, the Baltimore Orioles have lost their last 5 games and are 10 games under .500 at 13-23 overall. The O's are: 7.5GB in the AL East. 6GB of the 3rd Wild Card. The opposition has outscored the Birds by a nearly unfathomable 69 runs!...
Finding Good and Bad News With The Orioles Young Hitters
If I told you before the season the Baltimore Orioles would be 11-17 because of their starting pitching, I doubt you’d be surprised. However, if I told you the Orioles would also be 11-17 due to underwhelming starts from several of their younger hitters, I’d imagine...
April Has Been A Disaster; 135 Games Left After Today
The Baltimore Orioles lost both games in a double-header yesterday in Detroit, meaning that win or lose today; the O's are 1-6-2 in their first 9 series of 2025. Woof. There are 135 games left (83%) in the Orioles season after today, starting with a 3 game set to end...
