Baltimore’s general manager Mike Elias took responsibility for the club’s extended slump and expressed confidence a turnaround was coming.

The Baltimore Orioles have several players on the way back from injury, but Grayson Rodriguez may not be one of them.

The Orioles gave their fan base reason to be excited with their latest roster move, but might have angered the last person they'd want to annoy in the process.

Orioles pitcher Grayson Rodriguez is making encouraging progress back from his injured shoulder muscle, but when he returns — and what role he occupies — remains uncertain with two weeks remaining in the regular season.

"So, we’re aware of the fact that we’re in a slump as a team right now, as an organization, all of us, and we’re working on that, but we don’t want to lose sight of where we are and how we got here," Elias said.
