Catherine Reeves+FollowO’s Trade Baker, Call Up Bañuelos—Big Gamble?Birdland, what do you think about the O’s sending Bryan Baker to the rival Rays? With four catchers on the IL, they called up David Bañuelos from Norfolk, but is this just a stopgap? Bañuelos has only one MLB game under his belt and a .210 average in the minors. With Adley and others due back soon, is this a smart move or are we risking too much depth in the pen? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #Baseball #Orioles00Share
terrysharon+FollowMansolino Fires Back After Mets SweepBirdland, did you catch Skipper Mansolino’s postgame fire after the O’s swept the Mets? After a rough start to the season, the Birds flipped the script, taking both games and shutting down the doubters. Mansolino’s viral quote—about folks writing our obituary—was pure clubhouse fuel. With Cedric and Westburg stepping up and the Mets stumbling, this could be the turning point we’ve been waiting for. Are the O’s back in the AL East hunt? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #Baseball #Orioles10Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowDid Nightengale Jinx the O’s Playoff Hopes?Looks like Bob Nightengale’s Orioles hype train might’ve left the station a bit early. After that Atlanta sweep, optimism was sky-high, but the O’s have cooled off, dropping key games and sitting 7.5 back in the Wild Card. Sure, Baby Birds like Gunnar and Adley show promise, but the stats don’t lie—this squad still has some rebuilding to do. Maybe 2025 is our real shot? What do you think: was Nightengale’s take just wishful thinking, or did he jinx us? #Sports #Baseball #Orioles10Share
terrysharon+FollowRemember the Luis Castillo Mix-Up?Anyone else still laughing about the Orioles’ Luis Castillo confusion? Back in May, O’s fans thought we’d landed Seattle’s ace, Luis M. Castillo, but it turned out to be journeyman Luis F. Castillo instead. The viral mix-up had Birdland buzzing with memes and hot takes. Now, after barely seeing the mound and a stint on the IL, Castillo’s been outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk. Not the blockbuster we dreamed of, but definitely one of the season’s funniest moments! #Sports #Baseball #Orioles00Share
Timothy Huff MD+FollowCarlson Sent Down Again—O’s Roster Drama!Birdland, what do you make of Dylan Carlson’s rollercoaster week? The O’s optioned the veteran slugger back to Triple-A Norfolk—his second demotion in five days! With Tyler O’Neil coming off the IL, Carlson’s the odd man out. It’s a tough break for a guy who started strong but cooled off in June. Do you think he’ll get another shot, or is this the end of his Baltimore run? #Sports #Baseball #Orioles00Share
Timothy Huff MD+FollowSantander’s Struggles: O’s Made the Right Call?Birdland, did the front office actually nail it by letting Santander walk? After his monster 44-HR season, most of us dreaded seeing him mash for the Jays, but his Toronto debut has been rough—just .179 at the plate and now sidelined. Meanwhile, Laureano’s quietly putting up All-Star numbers for us. Maybe the O’s dodged a contract disaster here! What do you think—smart move or just lucky timing? #Sports #Baseball #Orioles00Share
Maria Chavez+FollowPovich’s Rehab Setback: More Trouble for O’s?Tough break for Birdland—Cade Povich’s rehab just hit another snag with that nagging hip soreness. The young southpaw was supposed to be a spark for the O’s rotation, but now his return is up in the air. With Eflin already sidelined, Baltimore’s pitching woes keep piling up. Can the O’s rally in July, or is it time to think about next season? Let’s hear your takes on Povich’s future and what this means for the team’s playoff hopes! #Orioles #Birdland #MLBInjuries #Sports #Baseball00Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowTrey Gibson Heating Up in the Minors!Birdland, have you seen what Trey Gibson is doing down in Chesapeake? The O’s rotation is hurting with Bradish, Grayson, and others on the IL, but Gibson’s June was electric—38 Ks in 25.1 innings and a 2.84 ERA! After a rough April, the kid’s ERA has dropped by three points. Scouts love his pitch mix, and he’s looking like a real future piece. Could we see him in Triple-A soon? Let’s talk about his rise and what it means for the O’s pitching depth! #Orioles # #TreyGibson # #Birdland #Sports #Baseball00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowCarlson Sent Down—O’s Making Bold MovesBirdland, what do you think of the Orioles sending Dylan Carlson back to Norfolk? After a tough stretch at the plate, the front office made the call to give him more reps in Triple-A. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Rivera gets another shot in the bigs, and Kyle Tyler is DFA’d. With the trade deadline looming, it’s clear the O’s are serious about staying sharp in the AL East race. Is this the right move, or should they have stuck with Carlson a bit longer? #Birdland #Orioles #MLB #Sports #Baseball00Share
jillian59+FollowCould O’s Slugger Boost Giants’ Playoff Push?After landing Devers, the Giants might not be done wheeling and dealing. Rumor has it they’re eyeing O’s lefty masher Ryan O’Hearn, who’s having a career year with a .301 average and 11 bombs. With the NL West race heating up, could adding O’Hearn’s bat be the move that puts the Orange & Black over the top? Would love to hear what fellow fans think—worth the price or stick with the current squad? #SFGiants #Orioles #MLBTradeRumors #Sports #Baseball00Share
