Mancini’s rough start; Making sense of Orioles’ outfield; Urías’ solid week
With 16 games played, the Orioles’ 2021 season is about 10 percent complete. That means, if you extrapolate, Trey Mancini’s three home runs and 11 runs batted in would be 30 homers and 110 RBIs, numbers that might be expected of him. On the other hand, his 19 strikeouts extrapolate into 190,...

Orioles’ Hyde explains Kremer’s option to the alternate site
The most surprising Oriole news this weekend wasn’t that the team won its second series of the season after losing six of seven at home. Nor was it that they’re 6-3 on the road and that they were a run away from a .500 record after 16 games. No, it was that...

Observations on Orioles’ hitting and starting pitching through first 2 weeks
The Orioles ended the first two weeks of the season with a 5-8 record. Few conclusions can be drawn from less than 10 percent of the 162-game season. A year ago, the Orioles ran off to a 12-8 start. That was vastly different. It was one-third through a 60-game season, and there...
