Jackson Holliday's slash line vs. LHPs through May 16 this season: .240/.321/.280 Since Tony Mansolino became #Orioles' interim manager on May 17: .293/.310/.512 In June: .367/.367/.667

Tony Mansolino on Jackson Holliday hitting first for #Orioles: "I don't think this kid goes anywhere else in the lineup. I took him out of the leadoff spot against [Tarik] Skubal. I don't think I'll ever do that. I think he's probably staying there, barring something unforeseen."

Asked about Jackson Holliday's All-Star case, Tony Mansolino talked bigger picture. "When I look at Jackson, I'm not concerned about the All-Star thing right now. It's like, 'How do we get this kid to be 1 of the top 5 players in the game by 2027?' That's how I look at Jackson."

Trevor Rogers on turnaround from '24 to '25: "The Orioles did an unbelievable job as far as the plan in place. Obviously, I didn’t understand the plan at the time when getting sent down, but I think we had a long-term plan here, and I think it’s finally coming to fruition."

Orioles win 6-0! The Trevor Rogers Parade saves the bullpen! Jackson Holliday 3-for-5, one run scored, four RBI! Middle game of three tomorrow night. #Birdland #LetsGoOs www.mlb.com/gameday/rang...

Worth noting, however, that Corbin Burnes went 8+ innings for #Orioles in Game 1 of AL Wild Card Series vs. Royals last Oct. 1 in between Bradish and Rogers.

The only time Trevor Rogers has finished an outing with 7+ scoreless innings in his MLB career? April 21, 2021, when he threw 7 scoreless for the Marlins against the #Orioles at Marlins Park.

#Orioles have loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the 6th inning. That'll do it for Patrick Corbin. Former O's RHP Jacob Webb enters to face Coby Mayo. O's have an opportunity here to extend their 4-0 lead.

Rangers got a pair of 2-out singles from Sam Haggerty and Wyatt Langford in the 6th, but Trevor Rogers gets out of the jam. 6 scoreless innings on 82 pitches (58 strikes). #Orioles lead 4-0 heading to the bottom of the 6th.

#Orioles' Jackson Holliday's 4 RBIs tonight tie a career high. His 3rd time with a 4-RBI game. 7/31/24 vs. TOR (grand slam for 1st career homer) 4/16/25 vs. CLE (2nd career grand slam, Bark at the Park) 6/23/25 vs. TEX (3-run homer, RBI double)

Matt Holliday lifetime vs. Patrick Corbin: 1-for-10 (.100) Jackson Holliday lifetime vs. Patrick Corbin: 2-for-3 (.667)

#Orioles' 2025 home run leaderboard 1. Cedric Mullins -- 12 2. Ryan O'Hearn -- 10 T-3. Jackson Holliday -- 9 T-3. Ramón Laureano -- 9 T-5. Gunnar Henderson -- 8 T-5. Adley Rutschman -- 8

Vying for a spot in the All-Star Game, Jackson Holliday hits a 3-run home run off Rangers starter Patrick Corbin with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th inning. #Orioles lead 4-0. Holliday has driven in all 4 runs.

#Orioles starter Trevor Rogers has retired 15 of 16 Rangers batters over 5 scoreless innings. 63 pitches, 44 strikes. O's lead Rangers 1-0 heading to the bottom of the 5th.

#Orioles starter Trevor Rogers has retired 9 Rangers hitters in a row and 12 of 13 tonight over 4 scoreless innings. Only baserunner has been Adolis García, who singled to open the 2nd. Rogers has thrown 54 pitches, 39 strikes.

Immediately after this, Chadwick Tromp scored on a 2-out RBI double by Jackson Holliday. #Orioles lead Rangers 1-0.

Make Anybody Great Again! #Birdland #LetsGoOs

#Orioles starter Trevor Rogers is through 3 scoreless innings vs. the Rangers on 40 pitches (30 strikes). He threw only 5 during the 3rd.

#Orioles starter Trevor Rogers hit 96+ mph 3 times during the 1st inning, his 3 fastest pitches in the big leagues this season. His 96.3 mph heater to Wyatt Langford was his 3rd-fastest pitch since the start of 2023. He hit 96.6 and 96.5 on April 2, 2023 vs. Mets.

A 1-2-3 1st inning vs. Rangers for #Orioles starter Trevor Rogers on 21 pitches (14 strikes). Rogers struck out Wyatt Langford swinging and Marcus Semien looking. He recorded 4 whiffs (2 by 4-seam fastball and 2 by changeup).

Trevor Rogers is making his 7th start for the #Orioles tonight (4 last year, 3 this year). However, it's only the 2nd career start at Camden Yards for the 27-year-old left-hander. Rogers allowed 5 runs in 5 innings vs. the Nationals last Aug. 13.

#Orioles’ starter for Wednesday is still TBA. Would be Tomoyuki Sugano’s turn. Interim manager Tony Mansolino said team is still working through some things. RHP Brandon Young (O’s No. 19 prospect per @MLBPipeline) would be on schedule.

#Orioles LHP Cade Povich (hip) is expected to begin a rehab assignment soon, per interim manager Tony Mansolino

#Orioles INF/OF Jorge Mateo (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk tomorrow.

Jordan Westburg has been getting treatment on the knuckle of his sprained left index finger. A return on Tuesday or Wednesday is “on the table,” per #Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino, who expects Westburg in the lineup by Friday at the latest.

#Orioles OF Tyler O’Neill (shoulder) is headed to Double-A Chesapeake next to continue his rehab assignment. He said he’s feeling a lot better lately, will continue using facilities at Camden Yards and commute. Eager to get back and try to help team win.

#Orioles lineup for opener vs. Rangers. Still no Jordan Westburg (left index finger sprain).

Maverick Handley becomes the 22nd #Orioles player to spend time on the injured list this season. That's only 4 shy of the active MLB roster size. Currently 11 on the IL.

#Orioles have placed C Maverick Handley on the 7-day concussion IL and selected the contract of C Chadwick Tromp from Triple-A Norfolk. 1B Ryan Mountcastle (right hamstring strain) transferred to 60-day IL to make room for Tromp on 40-man roster.

Ryan O’Hearn has a big lead at AL DH in new All-Star voting update. Jackson Holliday remains in 2nd at 2nd. Other #Orioles: Adley Rutschman 7th at C, Ryan Mountcastle 7th at 1B, Ramón Urías 9th at 3rd, Gunnar Henderson 9th at SS, Ramón Laureano 20th at OF.

Our #FIFACWC journey comes to an end 💚

#Orioles OF prospect Enrique Bradfield Jr. had a left hamstring strain earlier this year that caused him to be on the injured list from April 11-May 20. This time, it's the other leg for the 23-year-old.

RHP Michael Forret (#Orioles' No. 7 prospect per MLB Pipeline) tossed another gem for High-A Aberdeen today, working 5 scoreless innings with only 1 hit allowed against Brooklyn. Forret has a 1.34 ERA in 33 2/3 innings over 9 starts for the IronBirds this season.

RHP Braxton Bragg (#Orioles' No. 15 prospect per MLB Pipeline) was reinstated from Double-A Chesapeake's IL today after dealing with a right forearm strain. The 24-year-old then tossed 4 1/3 innings of 1-run ball at Erie. His Double-A ERA is now 1.85 over 39 innings.

Bryan Baker on #Orioles' road trip: "We played a lot better than 3-4. I think we probably should have been 5-2, kind of let a few get away from us. We’ve got to clean a few things up and execute and put away games. 3-4, we’d like to be better than that, especially in-division."

Maverick Handley's "full body" is being evaluated following the collision that led to his removal from today's game, per #Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino. Concussion protocol could be a possibility.

6/22: The workday has its ups and downs. comicskingdom.com/on-the-fastr... #slinky

Orioles lose 4-2, drop two of three in the Bronx, complete road trip at 3-4. Weeklong six-game homestand begins with three v. Rangers starting tomorrow night. www.mlb.com/gameday/orio...

Cedric Mullins frustrated after striking out to end the top of the 8th inning. #Orioles (who lead Yankees 2-1) had runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs before Ramón Laureano, Colton Cowser and Mullins all struck out swinging.

Outlaws have four of last five Tewaaraton Award recipients - Jared Bernhardt, Logan Wisnauskas, Brennan O'Neill and Pat Kavanagh. Big whoop! Two-time defending champion Archers have a Lehigh and Loyola man each - Mike Sisselberger and Cam Wyers respectively. #PremierLacrosse #Baltimore

Gary Sánchez enters the game at catcher for #Orioles. He caught both Friday night and Saturday afternoon.

#Orioles push their lead to 2-0 on Colton Cowser's RBI double off Yankees starter Will Warren in the top of the 1st

Jordan Westburg (left index finger sprain) could return in 2 or 3 days, per #Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino
