Orioles’ Starting Pitching Worse This Season, But Bullpen Improves Over Last Year
Posted on 2 Oct 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
Expectations entering this season were very high for the Baltimore Orioles after they signed big name free agents like designated hitter Vladimir Guerrero, shortstop J.J. Hardy, third baseman Mark Reynolds and closer Kevin Gregg. Jake Arrieta was 10-8 with a 5.05 ERA in 22 games (67 earned runs in 119.1 innings). But, for a 14th consecutive season and the first full year in the Showalter era, t...

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 Mid-Season Review
Posted on 13 Jul 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
The Birds are 22-22 at home, but a miserable 14-30 on the road at the half-way point. It’s that time of year again when you see players from opposing leagues and even players in the midst of bitter rivalries (of course I’m talking about the Red Sox and Yankees) come together and spend a couple of days basking in the glory of their superb seasons at the mid-summer classic. Wieters is hitting...

O’s Swept by Hot Rays
Posted on 9 May 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
The Orioles and Rays have now exchanged sweeps in 2011. Baltimore went into Tampa on opening weekend in April and dominated. This time it was the Rays’ turn, as they strolled into Baltimore and didn’t give the Orioles much of a chance to win. The Rays have now won six straight games, eight straight road games, and have the most wins in the AL East. Meanwhile, Baltimore continues their in...

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 ...

O’s Put Three W’s on the Board, Yes!
Posted on 3 May 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
The Baltimore Orioles were back to their winning ways over the last seven games. They just took three out of four from the White Sox, after winning two of three against Boston. The wrap-around series in Chicago saw the O’s take the first three games and reach the .500 mark again, only to drop the final game to Mark Buehrle on Monday night. Not counting Jeremy Guthrie’s starts, the O’s ...

O’s Scalped by Indians
Posted on 18 Apr 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
The Baltimore Orioles traveled to Cleveland this weekend in hopes of regaining first place in the AL East. However, they ran into a hot Indians team that pummeled them for a three game sweep. The Orioles have now lost seven in a row, putting their record at 6-8, good enough for third place. The Orioles offense was put down by three excellent pitching performances from the Indians’ Justin Ma...

Orioles = A Sign of Spring
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
According to all-birds.com, the Oriole is a sign of spring. So it’s no wonder it felt like Mother Nature skipped over spring the last thirteen years, the Orioles have been nowhere to be found. However, it’s just six games into the 2011 season and the Orioles seem to have everything clicking for them. The offense exploded for nine runs in yesterday’s rubber match, giving the O’s a 5-1 ...

O’s Outlook: Pitching Staff
Posted on 31 Mar 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
If the Oriole Way is to return to full glory, it will come through the pitching staff. The organization is currently loaded with young arms and they will be the key to the next several years of O’s baseball. 2011 will give us our first real taste of what these kids might do. If we’re lucky enough, we could be looking at a Rays or Reds – esque pitching staff. Rotation Jeremy Guthrie Bri...

The First Card Falls…
Posted on 13 May 2010 by Ron Burr.
The first head has rolled, all the way to Norfolk, VA. In a move that surprised almost no one, it was Nolan Reimold. I am still expecting Luke Scott to get the boot unless his recent hitting reversal continues (and doesn't plateau where it is now), but this was the right move by Andy MacPhail. I watched the game Tuesday night, and Reimold not only looked lost at the plate, he looked lost in...

Loyal to a Fault
Posted on 2 May 2010 by Ron Burr.
There are few people left on this earth who defend Dave Trembley more than I do. I have gone far and wide, and dug deep down, all to show how this horrendous start of the 2010 Orioles' season is not the sole responsibility of the manager. But as I sit here watching the 3rd game of the O's / Red Sox series, I am ready to drive down to Camden Yards and fire him myself. Why? 2 reasons: He...

The wit and wisdom of Maxwell Smart
Posted on 12 Apr 2010 by Ron Burr.
So after 6 games the Orioles are 1-5. Their 2nd baseman, leadoff hitter, and all around good egg Brian Roberts is on the disabled list (if there is a silver lining, it is NOT because of his problematic back, which seems to be holding up well, but because of an abdominal strain that he hurt successfully stealing 2nd base on Friday). Their $6 million closer man has already blown 2 saves, been...
