Baltimore Orioles lose to Cleveland 6-3 for fourth defeat in five games since All-Star break
Angel Martínez had three hits, José Ramírez homered and the Cleveland Guardians defeated the Baltimore Orioles 6-3 Tuesday night for their fourth win in five games since the All-Star break. Kyle Manzardo and Bryan Rocchio each drove in a pair of runs as the Guardians have won 10 of 12 after a 10-game losing streak to get back to .500 at 50-50. Ramón Laureano went deep in the sixth inning for the Orioles, who have dropped four of five since the break. Ramirez drove a 94.4 mile fastball near the top of the strike zone into the right-field seats off Baltimore's Brandon Young (0-5) in the first inning. Seven of Ramirez's 21 homers have come in the last 12 games. Cleveland starter Joey Cantillo (2-0) did not allow a hit until the fifth inning, when Ramón Urías led off with a base hit down the left-field line. The left-hander allowed one run and two hits in five innings with four walks and five strikeouts. Emmanuel Clase got the last three outs for his 22nd save. Rocchio's sacrifice bunt in the seventh inning brought home Nolan Jones and extended Cleveland's lead to 6-3. Rocchio is 6 for 17 with seven RBIs on the homestand. Cleveland has 21 homers in its last 12 games, tied with Oakland for the most in the majors since July 7. The Guardians have gone deep in 12 straight games, its longest run since it had a franchise-record, 20-game streak in 2021. Orioles RHP Zach Eflin (6-5, 5.95 ERA) goes against Guardians RHP Slade Cecconi (5-4, 3.84 ERA) on Wednesday.

Orioles to start RHP Zach Eflin on Wed.; C Adley Rutschman near return
July 23 - The Baltimore Orioles will bring right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin back from the injured list Wednesday to start that night's game against the host Cleveland Guardians. "Being on the IL here with the lower back strain, he's unhappy," O's interim manager Tony Mansolino told reporters Tuesday. "Really optimistic about where he's at, where his mind is at. Looking forward to seeing him take the ball tomorrow." Eflin, 31, last pitched June 28 against Tampa Bay before his IL stint, giving up four runs on five hits in one inning of work. In his first full season in Baltimore, he's 6-5 with a 5.95 ERA over 12 starts, with 42 strikeouts in 62 innings. For his career, he has gone 68-67 with a 4.27 ERA for the Philadelphia Phillies (2016-22), Rays (2023-24) and Orioles. Baltimore will need to make a corresponding roster move to fit Eflin back on the active roster. Mansolino also said that their No. 1 catcher, Adley Rutschman, is nearing a return from a strained left oblique. Rutschman made a rehab start at Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday as the designated hitter and went 1-for-3. Mansolino told reporters he wants Rutschman to catch back-to-back games there before Baltimore activates him. The former No. 1 overall draft pick, Rutschman is in his fourth big-league season and was batting .227 with eight home runs and 20 RBIs in 68 games before his injury. He last played for the Orioles on June 19. --Field Level Media

Astros Landing $8 Million Slugger Would Boost Lineup Ahead Of Trade Deadline
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. FanSided's Zachary Rotman recently put together a hypothetical trade idea that would send Baltimore Orioles slugger Ryan O'Hearn to the Houston Astros in exchange for prospects A.J. Blubaugh and Parker Smith. "In this deal, the Astros would acquire O'Hearn, a perfect fit for their lineup. In the short term, Houston can use him primarily as a DH, as Yordan Alvarez is still on the Injured List," Rotman wrote. "When Alvarez is healthy, O'Hearn can play in left field, with Walker etched in as the first baseman. O'Hearn won't provide stellar defense by any means, but he was an All-Star this season because of his bat, and his left-handed swing can add some much-needed balance to a right-handed heavy lineup." BALTIMORE, MD - JUNE 29: Ryan O'Hearn #32 of the Baltimore Orioles takes a swing during a baseball game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on June 29, 2025 in... BALTIMORE, MD - JUNE 29: Ryan O'Hearn #32 of the Baltimore Orioles takes a swing during a baseball game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on June 29, 2025 in Baltimore, Maryland. MoreBut would this trade idea make sense for both sides? For the Astros, it would provide them with a versatile defender who would upgrade their lineup in a big way. O'Hearn, whether it be at first base, designated hitter, or in the outfield, would be an everyday player for the Astros. Houston would use him in a variety of ways as it looks to make a World Series push this season. Pitching prospects are the biggest thing the Orioles need right now. Blubaugh is incredibly talented and could be ready to pitch in Baltimore as early as this season. The Orioles are likely looking to build their pitching rotation from the ground up, so a deal to acquire two talented young pitchers would be ideal. This could be a slight overpay from the Astros, as it likely wouldn't cost a prospect as talented as Blubaugh to land O'Hearn, but the fit and groundwork make a lot of sense.
