Here’s why the Orioles are likely moving to a six-man starting rotation | ANALYSIS

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 14:34:06 GMT

After the Orioles acquired Jack Flaherty minutes before last week’s trade deadline, Mike Elias said Baltimore’s rotation doesn’t have much of a “hierarchy.”While the Kyles are the rotation’s leaders — Gibson for his veteran presence, Bradish for his sparkling 3.19 ERA — the difference in expected outcomes doesn’t vary much among the group.Baltimore didn’t acquire a traditional No. 1 starter in the offseason or at the deadline, and compared with the other top teams in the majors, they don’t have a bonafide ace. That fact, though, hasn’t mattered much so far this season, as Baltimore has the best record in the American League and enters its nine-game road trip out west three games ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays atop the AL East.With 47 games remaining, the Orioles’ rotation is expected to look a bit different than their competitors in a new way. Manager Brandon Hyde said Thursday that left-hander Cole Irvin, wh...

As Orioles lease deadline neared, ex-stadium authority chair says John Angelos and Gov. Moore left him in the dark

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 14:34:06 GMT

As the final moments ticked down on the Orioles’ deadline to extend their stadium lease beyond 2023, the then-chairman of the Maryland Stadium Authority says club chairman and CEO John Angelos left him in the dark about the team’s intentions and Gov. Wes Moore, who had decided to replace him, froze him out.“The only way we found out” that the Orioles declined the five-year option — leaving the team with a hard Dec. 31 deadline to recommit to Baltimore — “was that it didn’t happen at 11:59 p.m.” on Feb. 1, former MSA board chairman Thomas Kelso told The Baltimore Sun.By then it was apparent, Kelso said — from a Jan. 31 letter he had just seen from Angelos to Moore — “that John Angelos was talking directly to the governor and vice versa, and nobody in the governor’s office had been willing to talk to me since it was decided to replace me. So there was no avenue by which I could find out what the governor wan...
