The Orioles have acquired the do-it-all left-handed reliever they were seeking, picking up Andrew Miller from the Boston Red Sox for minor league left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez.

Jon Lester gets traded, and it isn't to the Orioles. The club may still be on the hunt for a left-handed reliever, a catcher or a second baseman.

If reports are true that the Oakland Athletics have made their second blockbuster deal of the summer and sent Cuban slugger Yoenis Cespedes to the Red Sox for Jon Lester and Jonny Gomes, then there¿s really only one way to look at the situation: A¿s president Billy Beane has decided that it¿s now or never.

When Ubaldo Jimenez walked off the mound in the fourth inning in the nightcap of the Orioles' split doubleheader Saturday night, a split of their twin bill against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park seemed unlikely.

Fenway Park was emptied, cleaned and reopened in a matter of about an hour and a half for the nightcap of today's Orioles doubleheader in Boston.

Chris Davis became the first Oriole to hit three home runs on the road since Cal Ripken Jr. in 1996

The Orioles saw a five-run lead disappear Sunday night at Fenway Park before a win completely escaped them in the late innings against the defending world champion Boston Red Sox.

Friday¿s series opener in Detroit will be the first of five straight day games for the Orioles.

Left-hander reliever Mike Belfiore has been claimed off waivers by the Detroit Tigers, the Orioles announced on Thursday.

SARASOTA, Fla. -- It¿s currently raining heavily here at the Ed Smith Stadium complex, but the Orioles still hope to get this afternoon¿s 1:05 p.m. game in against the Boston Red Sox.

SARASOTA, Fla. ¿ The Orioles will head down to Fort Myers today for their first spring meeting with the Boston Red Sox at JetBlue Park.

For Orioles fans, the only thing more painful than watching an October without their favorite team this season was probably seeing the Red Sox win the World Series.

If you can remember all the way back to the Orioles' Kevin Millar era, you know that I enthusiastically supported the call from the clubhouse for the team's ownership to relax its highly restrictive facial hair policy. I also grew up in the 60s and 70s, so I generally take a libertarian approach to personal grooming.

The Orioles provided little spark in a 12-3 loss to Boston in front of an announced crowd of 30,774 at Camden Yards.

Orioles left-hander Wei-Yin Chen had never thrown fewer than four innings or given up more than seven runs in any of his starts as a major leaguer. He picked a particularly inopportune time to do both.

When the ball flies off the bat, Orioles right fielder Nick Markakis is often used to seeing it distinctly outlined against a backdrop of green seats up the third base line.

When the Red Sox put three runs across in the fourth inning, it broke a streak of 18 consecutive scoreless innings posted by Orioles pitchers.

Orioles veteran right-hander Freddy Garcia began a disconcerting trend after his second start of the season in May. One rough outing; one quality start. And back again and again.

Chris Davis' walk-off single to left gave the Orioles a 5-4 win and ended a four-hour, 35-minute marathon at Camden Yards.

The Orioles rallied for their second comeback win in as many games Thursday night with a 3-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox in front of an announced 27,704, giving the Orioles their fifth straight series win at Fenway Park, a streak that dates back to July 7-10, 2011.

Orioles, Yankees, Red Sox, Rays and Blue Jays all feel they can win American League East in 2013.

The Orioles manager talks about the organization's two prized pitching prospects.

Dylan Bundy got the start, but Kevin Gausman had the smoother and more eye-popping outing as the duo combined to allow just one unearned run through five innings in the Orioles' 5-2 win at JetBlue Park.

Orioles' Dylan Bundy and Kevin Gausman pitch tonight against the Boston Red Sox.

First off, some full disclosure here. I was one of the masses who spent the early morning hours chasing doorbusters and trying to get a leg up on Holiday shopping. Part of it is to get some deals -- or at least the idea of them ¿ and the other part is the experience. You see a lot of interesting things.

Several media outlets reported Wednesday that the Boston Red Sox have a two-year deal in place for right-handed slugger Jonny Gomes. The Orioles had legitimate interest in Gomes, but only on a one-year deal.

The Orioles have interest in free agent outfielder Jonny Gomes, an industry source has confirmed.

Down the stretch is a daily Orioles Insider blog that will set up the coming night for the O's and their American League competition as the push for the postseason continues.

If there's one thing that separates the Oakland A's and the Orioles, the American League¿s two upstarts, it¿s that the A¿s young pitching has been a tick better this season. On Saturday, in Oakland's 5-2 victory, A's 23-year-old right-hander Jarrod Parker was a whole lot better than 24-year-old lefty Zach Britton.

It had been 20 years since the Orioles and Oakland A¿s had played each other in September with both clubs boasting winning records.

The Orioles, who have consistently dialed up offense with the home run this season, used small-ball measures early in their 10-1 win over the A's.

Teams combine for 9 home runs, second-most in Camden Yards history, but Orioles can't keep pace after young pitcher falters
