BBQ sauce, new for the night or for the season who knows, just won the hot dog race. The crowd booed.

Ryan Mountcastle returns with a home run in Orioles’ win, but his spot is murky buff.ly/AyqhW1d

I asked. You answered. A lot of you answered. I’ve spent the last few days hearing from Birdland members about the Orioles’ changes to their season packages. As one person wrote me: “Figure out how to nicely print, ‘It’s bullshit.’” thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

Good work by Danielle Allentuck getting Mike Elias to talk about Dylan Beavers and Samuel Basallo — and asking if the Orioles are biding their time until Aug 16. More from that interview here: thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

Why haven’t the Orioles called up Samuel Basallo and Dylan Beavers? Here’s Mike Elias’ answer in an interview with The Baltimore Banner thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

RHP Trey Gibson is being promoted to Triple-A, a source said. He had a 1.55 in 10 Double-A starts.

Grayson Rodriguez had successful right elbow debridement to remove a bone spur today with Dr. Keith Meister in Dallas. He is done for the season but the hope is he’ll be ready for spring training

Félix Bautista and Zach Eflin are both done for the season. Bautista has a ‘significant shoulder injury’ and has another appointment this week to determine next steps. Eflin is getting a lumbar microdiscectomy procedure done next week on his back

It's possible Zach Eflin, a free agent after this season, has already thrown his last pitch for the Orioles. And for Félix Bautitsa, the future is still unknown as they determine next steps. thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

The Orioles roster looks a *tad* bit different these days. So who are these post-trade deadline Orioles, and what do they have to play for? thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

Eflin said one of the reasons he wants to have this procedure is to make sure he can pick up his four kids and be there for them. When asked if he’ll consider coming back to the Orioles, he said absolutely.

Is returning to Baltimore a possibility for Zach Eflin next season? Absolutely, he said. thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

MLB commissioner Rob Manfred, as part of his 30-team visits, met with the Orioles. He avoided salary cap discussions and centered on the strike zone challenge system and more. Dean Kremer, on the ending CBA: "The best thing for us is to be united." thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…

Orioles and Mariners enter a rain delay with one out in the top of the sixth. The infield and warning track are completely soaked already

The tarp came off. Now it's coming back on. No clue what's going on

After a week of trying to understand the changes to Birdland memberships, I feel even more befuddled. Most of all, I wonder if the Orioles understand their own fan base. It starts with a $22K boundary between sections, and only gets stranger from there: thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…
