Fun moment to re-share this profile I wrote on Cedric Mullins back when he was drafted in 2015: baltimoresportsreport.com/orioles-prospe… "If there’s a ball in the gap, even if people think it’s impossible to get that, I always say it’s in my game to get that ball.”
HOW DID CEDRIC MULLINS GET TO THIS BALL??!!
Tyler O'Neill now has a higher OPS (.681) this season than Colton Cowser (.677).
bring back Gary Thorne
The Orioles are bringing back the rebuild tonight
Dean Kremer getting slider movement on this splitter is bonkers. @PitchingNinja
Every single time the Orioles are involved in a 4-3 game, I have the strangest core memory pop up: watching Opening Day 2010 at the ESPN Zone, newly signed Mike Gonzalez comes in to blow the save, and the O's lose 4-3 to Tampa Anyone remember this one?
#orioles lead 4-3 in the 4th after Thairo Estrada’s 2-run shot
Living in Colorado means watching the Orioles play the Rockies with the Rockies in the background.
#Orioles Jeremiah Jackson is just the 11th player in MLB history to wear no. 82.
INF Jeremiah Jackson will wear number 82. Last worn by INF Kelvin Gutiérrez in 2022. #Orioles
Emmanuel Rivera being tired for 4th-most OAA at 3B whilst only having played 14 games there this season is certainly something.
Ryan McMahon’s 4 OAA are tied for 4th-most at 3B this season Also, hi hello Ke’Bryan Hayes 🔑
Three more punchies for Kyle Bradish in the 2nd 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼 His night looks to be done with the @IronBirds after two innings. So long as he comes off that mound feeling healthy and good, that's all that matters in a first rehab start back from major elbow surgery.
9-pitch 1-2-3 first inning for Kyle Bradish, with what looked to be a mix of 5 fastballs and 4 breaking balls.
Kyle Bradish's first strikeout in his rehab debut tonight for the @IronBirds. His last K before this one? Bryce Harper, back on June 14, 2024, his last start before having TJ.
Incredible value add for the Orioles in return for losing a spotty middle reliever. ETA to Baltimore, if all goes well, is probably ~2029.
Welcome to Birdland, Slater!
Ramón Laureano bumps his HR rate up to 5.4%, far and away the highest among Orioles regulars. For reference, Gunnar Henderson's HR rate in 2024 (when he hit 37 total HR) was 5.1%.
More notably to me is Westburg with 10 HR in 204 PAs, as compared to Holliday's 14 HR in 400 PAs. Laureano leads the roster in HR rate, with 13 in 258 PAs (5.1%).
Jackson Holliday's 14 home runs is 3rd-most among all full time second basemen in MLB.
Jackson Holliday's solo homer to begin the sixth inning gives him 14 homers, the most on the Orioles
