Adam Jones’ report card: A in hitting, F in fielding
Posted on 17 Apr 2013 by Brendan Keelan.
In tonight's Orioles-Rays game, which ended in a 6-2 Orioles loss, Orioles center fielder Adam Jones helped contribute to each of the two team's scores. Jones drove in the O's only two runs on a two-run homer in the third and also made two bad decisions in the field. He allowed a two run double in the fourth inning by overplaying a line drive hit by the Rays James Loney and then made a throwing...

In this game, which was Boston's home opener, the Orioles were defeated by the Red Sox by a score of 3-1 making it the O's third straight loss.

O’s attempt to achieve 1st place in the AL East has been a roller coaster ride
Posted on 7 Sep 2012 by Brendan Keelan.
Five days ago the Orioles were one game out of first place in the AL East. Since then they have moved into a tie for first place on Tuesday, dropped a game back again on Wednesday, moved back into a tie on Thursday, and tonight dropped a game back in the race again to the Yankees by a score of 8-5. This roller coaster ride is created by the fact that they are playing head-to-head with the Yanke...

Orioles’ Offense Produces Better Numbers This Season
Posted on 2 Oct 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
In my last blog post, I analyzed the Orioles’ pitching stats this season; in this post, I’m going to uncover the Birds’ offensive trends, surprises and disappointments for the 2011 season. Although their offense produced better power numbers, especially with the addition of home run slugging Mark Reynolds (37 hrs), they collectively hit a couple of points worse batting average-wise. Las...

Orioles’ Last Two Series Have Been Like Night and Day
Posted on 25 Aug 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
If you are an avid Orioles fans and follow them closely, you are used to the Birds playing a horrendous series and then turn around and look like a completely different team in the next series. It’s like day and night between series and yet again, they showed how inconsistent they can be. Mark Reynolds is 7 for his last 21 with 1 homerun and 4 RBI. The Birds lost two of three in Oakland to ...

Orioles Struggles Continue on Road as They’ve Won Only 17 All Season
Posted on 4 Aug 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
Most believe the Orioles’ 2011 season, its first full year under mastermind Buck Showalter, has been over since mid-May when they really took a plunge in the Eastern standings and have never been able to lift themselves up and get back on track. Nick Markakis actually hits better on the road (.288) than at home this season (.277). Entering the season, fans finally had reason to rejoice and ev...

Baseball’s Midseason Awards
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
It seems like just yesterday I was typing up my preseason predictions for the upcoming baseball season. It's hard to believe that we are already at the halfway point. Who says that the baseball season is too long? As per usual with baseball, this season is full of unpredictability and surprises. We've seen two no-hitters within one week to make this the year of the pitcher 2.0, a home ...

Adam Jones Puts Up All-Star Numbers
Posted on 17 Jun 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
The Orioles knew they acquired a very special outfielder in-the-making when they shipped prized-lefty Erik Bedard to the Seattle Mariners in early 2008 and received Adam Jones in return. Jones has really broke out and become a strong every day player in his fourth full major-league season both patrolling center field and at the dish. Seattle experts believed that the Mariners were going to us...

Orioles Magic Looks Like Witchcraft in KC
Posted on 6 May 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
The Orioles dropped two of three to the Royals this week after winning two consecutive series vs. both Sox teams. The Royals capitalized on poor outings from Brad Bergesen and Chris Tillman, two starters that are certainly headed in the wrong direction for the O’s. Bergesen surrendered four runs on Tuesday night and left the game after five innings. The Baltimore offense put some runs up ...
