Orioles reliever Darren O'Day didn't pitch in Tuesday's All Star Game, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have an on-field moment worth crowing about. "I robbed a home run at the wall in batting practice," said O'Day, who said he shagged a would-be homer by Los Angeles Angels outfielder Albert Pujols. "That was one of my goals."

Orioles third baseman Manny Machado will make his first career Opening Day start today against the Rays, becoming the fourth player in team history to start an Opening Day game at the age of 20 or younger.

Former Oriole lefty Dana Eveland has agreed to a one-year deal with the Hanwha Eagles of the Korea Baseball Organization, according to an industry source.

The Orioles added their latest reclamation project Wednesday, agreeing to terms with first baseman Conor Jackson on a minor league deal with an invitation to major league spring training, executive vice president Dan Duquette announced.

I believe the Orioles will make a trade ¿ either here or within a few days of the meetings.

What I want from you is one name -- the one player you think the Orioles will end up with when all of the offseason dust settles. I can¿t imagine they land a Josh Hamilton or Zack Greinke, but if you disagree, then go ahead and make that your choice.

Left-handed pitcher Dana Eveland and catcher Ronny Paulino have both elected free agency, an industry source has confirmed.

The Orioles are in such a strange position right now that it¿s hard to predict what they¿ll do in several areas. One is September call-ups.

Orioles' infielder Wilson Betemit hasn't played since last Saturday, but it turns out there might be a reason other than the arrival of prospect Manny Machado from the minor leagues.

Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette said the organization's move to make Brian Matusz a reliever fills a temporary need and that the left-hander still has a promising future as a starter.

Lew Ford arrived in Baltimore on Saturday night, got to the ballpark Sunday morning and learned shortly after that he would be playing in a major league baseball game for the first time since 2007.

Orioles catcher Matt Wieters didn't start Friday night's game against the Oakland A's, but it wasn't because he is mired in a 1-for-30 slump. Wieters was held out of the lineup because of a tight right bicep muscle.

The Orioles recalled right-hander Miguel Socolovich on Friday, designating Dana Eveland for assignment for a third time this season.

They were referring to the Orioles' two key hits with runners in scoring position in a five-run fifth inning, which fueled their 6-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. For a team that came in batting just .152 with runners in scoring position since June 14, those hits made the Orioles feel like they were suddenly cured.

Left-hander Dana Eveland arrived in Baltimore Thursday morning running on four hours sleep after receiving word that the Orioles were purchasing his contract from Triple-A Norfolk around 1:30 a.m.

Zach Britton couldn¿t imagine he¿d have to wait until mid-July to make his first major league start this season, but the Orioles left-hander ¿ who will make that first start Tuesday against the Twins ¿said he¿s a better pitcher for it.

The Orioles are opening their two-eight, eight-game road trip tonight in Minneapolis, where they will play the opener of their four-game series with the Twins here at Target Field.

Orioles ace Jason Hammel said he hadn't made a decision on a course of action on his injured right knee, but he is leaning toward getting it surgically repaired.

The Orioles purchased the contract of reliever Miguel Socolovich and activated catcher Taylor Teagarden from the 60-day DL. To make room, they designated lefty Dana Eveland for assignment and outrighted catcher Ronny Paulino to Triple-A Norfolk.

Chris Davis, who has played well filling Markakis' spot in right field, will make his first big-league start in left field.

As for right-hander Jake Arrieta, the Orioles came close to sending him down to Triple-A Norfolk, but the 26-year-old was jettisoned to the bullpen instead, and when holes in Baltimore¿s rotation opened, he slid back into the starting role.

Struggling left-hander Brian Matusz has been sent down to Triple A Norfolk, the Orioles announced Sunday.

Or is it an injured and undermanned upstart that simply hit its peak and now is beginning to slide back to reality after a disappointing homestand that culminated with a 6-2 loss to the previously scuffling Cleveland Indians?

Designated hitter Jim Thome is expected to arrive Sunday, so the Orioles will have to make room for him on the 25-man roster (after designating reliever Zach Phillips for assignment to clear 40-man roster space).

For the fifth straight game, an Orioles starter turned in a less-than-stellar performance, this time from lefty Dana Eveland, who was making his first start since May 11, adding to the Orioles' troubles on the mound.

The Orioles have agreed in principle with three of their top seven draft picks, including second-rounder Branden Kline, a right-hander

Finally, the Orioles have another outfielder in the outfield. On Thursday, the club promoted Xavier Avery from Triple-A Norfolk when first baseman Nick Johnson was placed on the disabled list with a strained right wrist.

Xavier Avery is back with the team and back in the lineup, batting second and starting in left field. Nick Johnson has been placed on the disabled list with a strained right wrist.

After three straight quality outings at Triple-A Norfolk, Right-hander pitcher Chris Tillman is knocking on the Orioles door. The Orioles need pitching help, and Tillman has distanced himself from the competition in Norfolk, so it it time to give the 24-year-old a chance in the Orioles rotation?

Steve Tolleson was Wednesday's roster casualty, optioned to Triple-A Norfolk before the game to make space for Matt Lindstrom, who was activated form the 15-day disabled list after missing time with a right middle finger injury.

Before Wednesday's game, the Orioles optioned utility man Steve Tolleson to Triple-A Norfolk to make room for right-handed reliever Matt Lindstrom, who was activated from the 15-day disabled list (right middle finger).

I want to know what you think the Orioles¿ five-man rotation should be by, say, the start of the second half. I¿ll let you pick one guy out of the organization, but only one.

Orioles reliever Matt Lindstrom has to wait one more day to come off the disabled list as the club reshuffles its pitching staff. Lindstrom has been on the disabled list since May 11 with a partially torn ligament in his right finger.

Orioles reliever Matt Lindstrom, who has been on the DL with a partially torn ligament in his right middle finger, said he no longer has any pain and can throw all of his pitches.

The monster inning, the one that has haunted Jake Arrieta for much of this season, lurked on Sunday afternoon. But the Orioles pitcher survived the trouble and may have turned a corner mentally three starts after his brief demotion tot he bullpen.

Despite last night's 3-1 loss to the Nationals, the Orioles can still clinch their fifth series win in six interleague series with a win in this afternoon's series finale. A win would also give the Orioles their 11th in interleague play, tying a franchise high previously done three times (1999, 2008, 2009). The Orioles will be without left-handed reliever Dana Eveland, who left to California to be with his wife, Ashley, who is delivering the couple's second child. Eveland won't be placed on the paternity leave list until Tuesday

With his wife due to deliver a baby boy in three days across the country, Orioles left-hander Dana Eveland can't step far from his cell phone.
