Shortstop Gunnar Henderson said he believes he can return from injury in time to take the field with the Baltimore Orioles on Opening Day. Their season opens March 27 on the road against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Watching some prospects, Eflin starts the opener, and pitcher friendships.
Good Morning Birdland!
Spring training is nearing its end. There’s a full week of games left, and then the teams head out to begin their respective regular seasons. It’s about time. By this point in the spring, the excitement that baseball of any kind has returned wanes a bit, and in it’s place is a yearning for games that actually count. Let’s get...

The Orioles made the obvious choice official on Friday afternoon.
Opening Day is 13 days away for the Orioles. On Friday afternoon, the O’s made it official which of their starting pitchers will get the ball for the first game. Manager Brandon Hyde announced Zach Eflin as the choice.
Eflin was really the only choice, especially after Grayson Rodriguez injured his elbow. Eflin’s nine starts with the Orioles last year were just...
I know, I know, O’s fans are either sick of this topic or have exhausted themselves digging through every single mock trade. But, contrary to the majority, I think the Baltimore Orioles are actually in a great spot and should not use their prospects to swing a big trade.

This offseason’s key reliever addition will start the season on the IL thanks to knee surgery. Can the former All-Star get healthy in time to make big contributions in 2025?
When the Orioles announced the signing of Andrew Kittredge back in January, it became the most universally praised move of the offseason. After years of seeing how nasty Kittredge can be as a member of the Rays, Mike Elias brought in the former All-Star to make the O’s...

The Orioles paid a visit to the Blue Jays in Dunedin, where they met up with an old friend.
Good morning, Camden Chatters.
Just 10 games remain on the Orioles’ spring schedule. That’s two games at most for each member of the Birds’ projected five-man rotation to get fully stretched out and ready to go. So far, none have worked five full innings; yesterday in Dunedin, Cade Povich attempted to do so but came one out shy, running out of gas and giving...

Zach Eflin was a hero for the Orioles down the stretch. How will he fare this season?
When the Orioles traded for Zach Eflin last July, they seemed to have received more than they could have hoped for. Eflin had made 19 mediocre starts for the non-contending Rays, who sent him to Baltimore for prospects.
Eflin was immediately better with the Orioles. Starting with a six-inning start on July 29, he pitched to a 2.60 ERA over nine starts...

Today’s Orioles spring training game will be on Blue Jays television, though there’s no local broadcast.
Hello, friends.
There are now just two weeks remaining until Orioles Opening Day. It’s almost here!
The Orioles played the kind of game in spring training yesterday where it’s not exactly feeling exciting to think about how the games will start counting in 14 days. They got blasted by Atlanta, 13-5, with Dean Kremer giving up four runs over four...

Baltimore lost its home run leader when Anthony Santander signed with Toronto, but the roster is filled with players capable of upping their power production this season.
The Orioles have 44 home runs to replace with Anthony Santander leaving for Toronto, but Baltimore’s lineup is filled with players capable of increasing their power supply. It only takes one swing of the bat to remind everyone of the potential.
Ryan Mountcastle sent a three-run homer the...

The change in dimensions to Oriole Park’s dreaded left-field wall could give the O’s righty slugger a home run boost in 2025.
The O’s didn’t make a ton of splashy moves this offseason. But if you were to ask Ryan Mountcastle, he’d probably tell you that the Orioles’ best addition was by subtraction.
After three nightmarish years for Mountcastle and other right-handed sluggers, Walltimore is no more. At least, not in its previous form. The...

The star shortstop is progressing, as is Jorge Mateo, the O’s beat the Yankees, and hotly-contested ping pong battles.
Good morning Birdland,
The Orioles were due for some positive injury news, and they finally got it on Tuesday. It was reported that both Gunnar Henderson and Jorge Mateo were easing back into baseball activities.
Henderson did “light hitting progressions” and was planning to field balls sometime...

Albert Suárez and a number of likely regulars travel to Tampa for today’s spring game.
Opening Day is 16 days away from today. If we count the final tune-up exhibition in Washington before the regular season, there are 14 spring training games remaining for everything to get in order. This is the point where I would like to see players who have been struggling so far turn that narrative around.
The expected regular lineup guys who are on the struggle bus in...

Gregory Soto expressed a desire to pitch in higher leverage situations last season. With the Orioles expected to slow play Félix Bautista, could Soto rise to the occasion?
They say you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Gregory Soto got off to a brutal start after arriving in Baltimore at the trade deadline, but the former Phillie quickly turned into one of Brandon Hyde’s most trusted relievers.
Soto allowed four runs and only recorded one...

The Orioles have 13 games remaining to iron out all the kinks and get as healthy as possible.
Good morning, Camden Chatters.
Spring training continues to roll right along, for better or for worse. And lately for the Orioles, it’s been for worse. Gunnar Henderson is still out of the lineup with no update on when he’ll resume playing. Grayson Rodriguez has already been confirmed to start the regular season on the injured list. Orioles fans can be...

The Orioles had lost their previous four spring games against the Pirates.
Every passing day brings us closer to the regular season. The closer it gets, the more important it is that the players who matter are looking like they’re getting into regular season form. The Orioles played the Pirates on Monday night and the most important thing was Félix Bautista continuing to get his work in. As a nice bonus, the Orioles won, 6-3, their first spring win over...

This game will actually be on MASN and Félix Bautista is scheduled to pitch.
Since the start of Grapefruit League games, the Orioles have played the Pirates four times. Tonight will be the fifth. They’ve lost all four games so far.
This fact does not matter yet. Three of the four games to date had a decisive number of runs given up by pitchers whose fortunes are not expected to impact the 2025 Orioles season in any way. With one exception, that...
There are still several starting pitchers available in free agency and it’s possible that mounting injuries could help create new opportunities for them.
As spring training marches on, the Kansas City Royals could still use another outfielder, and the Baltimore Orioles need a versatile pitcher as injuries stack up. Here's a swap they should consider.

Westburg’s absence last year was connected to the team’s decline.
In some ways, Jordan Westburg is both too young and too old. On the one hand, he’s often getting overshadowed by the top prospects around him—Gunnar, Adley, Jackson. On the other, so far in his career, he’s been too quiet and retiring to be a “clubhouse leader” like last season veterans Anthony Santander and Corbin Burnes.
Maybe this is the year...
