A goofball with an impressive recall, Orioles pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano has plowed through the learning curve in his first MLB season.

Manager Brandon Hyde was fired, paying the price for the 2023 AL East champions' inexplicable winter inactivity, falling further out of the division race just about every single day, bottoming out at 15-32. The team's 5.45 ERA is the worst mark in the AL and the offense hasn't been much better, ranking near the bottom of baseball in OPS.

The Baltimore Orioles have one of the best prospects in the game and, by a slim margin, the best catching prospect in baseball.

The Baltimore Orioles are expected to trade away their Japanese rookie as they head toward seller status at the trade deadline.

The bad news: The three new fearless leaders — Don Kelly (Pirates), Warren Schaeffer (Rockies) and Tony Mansolino (Orioles) — who inherited these managing jobs started a combined 4-19! So those firings went well.

The Orioles scratched and clawed their way to a win over the Brewers in 11 innings Wednesday, ending their eight-game losing streak.
