It’s been a while since the O’s had to worry about setting a postseason roster. Here’s our best guess at how they’ll do it.

Hey, have you heard? The Baltimore Orioles will be playing in the postseason for the first time since 2016, kicking off the Division Series this Saturday against the winner of the Rangers/Rays Wild Card Series. I know! It’s awesome.

The O’s have a few more days before they need to set their ALDS...

The O’s workout, roster decisions looming, and some stress-free baseball.

Good morning, Birdland!

Yesterday was a unique day of baseball enjoyment. We were able to watch four competitive baseball games in which our favorite team had an interest but was not directly involved. Dare I say, it was relatively stress-free.

Of course, the Rangers/Rays series is the most relevant here. The winner will come to Camden Yards this weekend to begin the ALDS. As we...

Do you have strong preferences in this round, or are you just enjoying that the Orioles get to skip it?

The postseason officially begins today! It’s one of those glorious days when you can watch four baseball games all in one day, although you’ll have to skip around as they are sure to overlap time-wise.

Perhaps the most enjoyable part of this...

Reggie Hildred-USA TODAY Sports

Our yearly contest has wrapped up with one big winner!

The 2023 regular season has come to an end. While we wait to see our top-seeded Baltimore Orioles play in the division series this weekend, let’s check in on how Camden Chatters thought the Orioles would due six months ago. That’s when the annual pre-season contest took place.

If you weren’t around six months ago, the contest happens every March and allows the fine members of this community...

Why Orioles fans should root for the Rays in the Wild Card Series

Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY Sports

Rooting for the the O’s to match up with the rivals may seem counterintuitive, but there are good reasons why Tampa may actually be the better matchup for the ALDS.

Orioles fans are used to going into “wait and see” mode come October. However, this year, instead of waiting to see who will win the World Series and waiting to see when the Orioles can get a jump on their offseason plans, we’re doing a different kind of waiting. After clinching the AL...

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

Four days from now, the Orioles will host Game 1 of the Division Series, opening a new chapter in what could be a magnificent future. But yesterday, the O’s said goodbye to a storied part of their past.

Hundreds of O’s fans joined the family, friends, and former teammates of Brooks Robinson at a memorial...

Why Orioles fans should root for the Rangers in the Wild Card Series

Texas certainly wouldn’t be an easy opponent for the Orioles in the Division Series, but they’d be doing the O’s a solid if they can knock out the 99-win Rays first.

The stage is set. The 2023 regular season has ended, and the 18 non-playoff teams have gone home for the winter, while the Orioles and 11 other clubs prepare for postseason baseball.

Mr. Splash got to leave his post yesterday to throw out the first pitch | Mitch Stringer-USA TODAY Sports

The regular season is finished but for once the Orioles are not.

Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! Sometimes it still feels like we’re in a dream, doesn’t it? Your Baltimore Orioles are currently in the midst of their five-day stretch of no baseball before playing the winner of the Wild Card series between the Rays and Rangers on Saturday.

Yes, you read that correctly. After being...

Bradish looks ready, Orioles look ahead in 6-1 loss to Red Sox

Kyle Bradish dominated in an abridged start, but the Orioles appeared mostly checked out in a meaningless Game 162.

The Orioles will likely start Kyle Bradish in Game 1 of the ALDS this Saturday. Baltimore had nothing left to play for today, but the Birds still elected to pitch Bradish. O’s skipper Brandon Hyde said he wanted to keep their top starter in rhythm before the postseason.

Bradish only worked two innings, but he certainly looked prepared...

Today marks the final game of the regular season, but the Orioles are far from finished playing baseball this year. Welcome to 2023, where October baseball includes more than one game in Baltimore.

Kyle Bradish will take the ball as the Orioles look to secure their 102nd win of the season. Baltimore has already locked up the number one seed in the American League. You can...

Sunday Bird Droppings: The winningest Orioles of the century try to close with #102

Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports

There was some bad, but not surprising, news about Félix Bautista yesterday

Hello, friends.

The 2023 Orioles have now won more games than all but four other Orioles teams in the existence of the franchise. Winning #101 last night, a 5-2 triumph over the Red Sox, put them one above the 1980 Orioles. That leaves this year’s team equal to the 1971 Orioles, with the potential to pull equal to the 1979 O’s at 102 if they can win the finale today. 1969’s 109...

Offense erupts in late innings as Orioles notch win #101

The Orioles don’t even have to keep winning, and still they did.

For the 2023 Orioles, tying for the fifth-best season in franchise history wasn’t quite enough. So let’s make it the fourth-best.

The Birds entertained a sellout crowd at Camden Yards with a 5-2 victory over the Red Sox, giving them their 101st win of the season. They’ve now passed the 1980 Birds in the win category and equaled the mark of the 1971 club. In their season finale tomorrow,...
