Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn Sends Clear Message on Possible Trade Ahead of Upcoming Deadline
The Baltimore Orioles finished in their first half of the 2025 MLB season in the cellar of the American League East Division with a 43-52 record, 11.5 games behind the first place Toronto Blue Jays.
The Orioles' lackluster start has led to speculation of potential trades involving big name players ahead of July 31's MLB Trade Deadline, including rumors surrounding the team's lone All-Star representative, first baseman Ryan O'Hearn.
On Wednesday, O'Hearn's comments on a potential Orioles trade sometime this month were revealed by MLB.com writer Mark Feinsand, giving fans a glimpse into O'Hearn's thought process headed toward what could be an eventful July.
"I'm trying to be where my feet are, focus on one day at a time with the guys in the locker room in Baltimore," O'Hearn said according to Feinsand.
"I love them and I want to be with them, but at the same time, I understand it's a business and this happens every year. Guys get traded around this time, so this is just part of it," the Orioles first baseman added.
O'Hearn had two at-bats during Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game and did not reach base, a reminder than he and his Orioles teammates have plenty of improvements to make if they hope to vault themselves back into playoff contention during the second half of the 2025 MLB season.This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 16, 2025, where it first appeared.

Commanders LB Bobby Wagner lands on NFL Top 100 list: Where is he ranked?
This shouldn't come as a surprise, but Washington Commanders linebacker Bobby Wagner is one of the NFL's top 100 players. On Thursday, the NFL revealed the latest players on its countdown of top 100 players, and the future Hall of Famer came in at No. 74. In the NFL's video, Eagles All-Pro right tackle Lane Johnson praised Wagner, specifically his ability to diagnose every play before the snap. Teammates Brian Robinson Jr. and Quan Martin praised Wagner's excellence and his leadership. In his first season with the Commanders in 2024 — and 13th in the NFL — Wagner recorded 132 tackles, including 10 for loss, two sacks, two fumble recoveries, one forced fumble and eight quarterback hits. He was named to the Pro Bowl for the 10th time and second-team All-Pro. Wagner has been a six-time first-team All-Pro and a five-time second-team All-Pro. It was the 13th consecutive season that Wagner recorded 100 tackles or more, tying former Washington great London Fletcher for the longest streak in NFL history. Wagner will play his 14th NFL season in 2025 after the Commanders re-signed him in March.

Former Bills pass rusher Von Miller finds a new home
Von Miller will be back in the NFL in 2025 but not with the Buffalo Bills. Miller, 36, has signed with the Washington Commanders. According to reports, it's a one-year deal for the future Hall of Famer: Over the weekend it was reported that three teams were said to be "very interested" in signing Miller for the 2025 season. The two-time Super Bowl champion failed to win a title in Buffalo after spending the past three years with the Bills. However, his tenure was stained by injury. When Miller did get on the field for Buffalo, he appeared in 36 games making 11 starts in a pass-rushing rotational role. Miller notched 14 sacks with the Bills. Miller was originally released in Buffalo earlier this offseason in a salary cap move but at the time it was reported that both the Bills front office and Miller were "open" to a return in the future. That will not be the case as far as next season is concerned. Bills Wire will continue to provide updates throughout the 2025 offseason.
