Rotoworld Player News

Jackson Holliday underwent a successful left wrist TFCC debridement surgery on Tuesday.

According to the Texas Orthopedic and Spine Associates website, the procedure removed damaged tissue from the triangular fibrocartilage complex in the wrist. Holliday will be able to begin his rehab in a few weeks, and he should be good to go for spring training.
Jackson Rees

BAL Relief Pitcher

Orioles signed RHP Jackson Rees to a minor league contract.

The 32-year-old Rees, a former Blue Jays prospect, got a little attention back in 2019 after posting a crazy 0.73 ERA and an 88/15 K/BB in 61 2/3 innings in A-ball. He topped out in Triple-A with the Jays, but he will get another look from a major league team next spring after spending two years in indy ball and 2026 in Mexico.
Gerald Ogando

BAL Relief Pitcher

Orioles re-signed RHP Gerald Ogando to a minor league contract.

Ogando, 26, joined the Orioles organization in 2025 after seven years with the D-backs and a 2024 spent in indy ball. He had a 4.89 ERA and a 61/37 K/BB in 49 2/3 innings out of the pen between Double- and Triple-A this year.
Jordan Westburg

BAL 3rd Baseman #11

Jordan Westburg (elbow) is starting his hitting progression this week.

Westburg missed the entire 2026 season after suffering a UCL sprain in spring training and then having a setback in early May. Westburg wound up having Tommy John surgery in the middle of May but is now beginning his hitting progression, which means he should have plenty of time to be ready to go by spring training.
Kyle Bradish

BAL Starting Pitcher #38

Orioles general manager Mike Elias said that Kyle Bradish will undergo sports hernia surgery on Tuesday.

Bradish dealt with the injury over his final three starts of the season and was placed on the injured list on September 13th. The recovery from this surgery is usually a couple of months long, so he should be able to have a relatively normal offseason and build up to the necessary arm strength by spring training.
Elmer Rodríguez

NYY Starting Pitcher #71

Sunday’s game between the Orioles and Yankees was rained out.

Shane Baz and Elmer Rodríguez were supposed to start this one. Both teams will finish the season having played 161 games, with the Yankees going 93-68 and the Orioles 79-82.
Shane Baz

BAL Starting Pitcher #34

Shane Baz had his final start against the Yankees rained out on Sunday.

Baz will still get to finish on a rather positive note, as he turned in a quality start last time out against the Jays and went without adding to his total of 15 losses in his final three outings. He’ll finish tied with Tanner Bibee and Brady Singer for the MLB lead in losses, though his 4.11 ERA and 154/63 K/BB ratio in 179 2/3 innings aren’t so bad.
Heston Kjerstad

BAL Left Fielder #13

Heston Kjerstad will draw a start in right field for the Orioles in Sunday’s season finale against the Yankees.

Kjerstad was brought up from Triple-A Norfolk on September 23 but hadn’t drawn a start until now. The 27-year-old outfielder will bat eighth for the O’s against Yankees’ right-hander Elmer Rodriguez on Sunday afternoon in New York.
Gunnar Henderson

BAL Shortstop #2

Gunnar Henderson said Friday that he’s dealt with a right wrist issue for about half of the season but that he doesn’t expect to need surgery.

Last year, it was a shoulder issue that explained Henderson’s decline. We don’t doubt that a wrist injury limited him this year, but the fact that remains that he wasn’t very good in the half of the season before it apparently became a problem. His decline from future-Hall of Fame superstar to above average regular is probably the biggest of the several issues currently plaguing the Orioles, even if he’s still providing way more value than what he’s making in terms of salary.
Dylan Beavers

BAL Left Fielder #12

Dylan Beavers went 1-for-5 and belted a solo home run as the Orioles fell to the Yankees in the nightcap of Friday’s doubleheader.

After blasting a grand slam as the Orioles won the first game of Friday’s twin bill, Beavers tagged Alexander Cornielle for a 368-foot (105.1-mph EV) solo shot in the ninth inning of Game 2. That would be his only hit in five at-bats in the game. For the season, the 25-year-old outfielder is now slashing .228/.307/.373 with nine homers and 44 RBI in 363 plate appearances.
