After a couple of weeks where they were playing a better brand of baseball, the Orioles have reverted over the last week to a more familiar 2025 mode of losing. Starting pitching has been more spotty, the offense is prone to doing nothing against pitchers who are not very good, and the bullpen... well, actually, the bullpen’s still been pretty good. Keep it up.
Next awaiting the Orioles are the Los Angeles Angels, who no longer proclaim allegiance to Anaheim in their formal name but do still play their home games in Anaheim. The Angels are one of the seven teams that stand between the Orioles and a wild card spot, if you want to believe in that.
