Orioles News
In a surprising twist, Leody Taveras took his first-ever turn at third base in the Orioles' 6-1 victory over the Angels, a desperate move necessitated by injuries to key infielders. With Jackson Holliday still sidelined due to groin tightness, the O's are trying to patch their lineup while Blaze Alexander proves to be an unexpected asset, reshaping the infield's future. As the team builds off their recent dominance over the Dodgers, winning two out of three and showcasing a solid offensive output, they now face the last-place Angels, presenting a golden opportunity to inch closer to .500. However, Gunnar Henderson's struggles at the plate could hinder that momentum, as teams have clearly figured out how to exploit his tendencies. It’s time for the Orioles to seize this moment and solidify their position in the division.
