Orioles News
The Orioles' struggles continued as they suffered a disappointing 4-3 walk-off loss to the Marlins, marred by a costly 9th-inning error from Coby Mayo. This follows a week where the O's showed glimpses of potential, but their pitching remains a pressing concern, allowing 7.6 runs per game over the last week. With Cade Povich's recent early exit adding to the rotation woes, the team faces tough decisions as Trevor Rogers nears his IL return. Meanwhile, Jackson Holliday is making strides in his rehab, providing a sliver of hope for the future. The looming question is whether the front office regrets trading away talent like Michael Forret in their pursuit of Shane Baz. As the season teeters at 17-20, the O's must quickly find stability to avoid falling further behind in an already competitive division.
