SARASOTA—One of the 48 books written by late sportswriter John Feinstein, who died last week at 69, was about life in Triple-A baseball, “Where Nobody Knows Your Name.” This year, Tim Federowicz is trying to make sure Oriole fans know his players’ names.
On Friday, the Baltimore Orioles named former major league catcher Tim Federowicz as the manager for the Norfolk Tides, the club's Triple-A affiliate. Federowicz previously managed the Mariners Triple-A affiliate (Tacoma Rainiers) back in the 2022 season.
The Orioles announced their minor league coaching staffs for 2025 on Friday. Roberto Mercado will be returning to the renamed Double-A Chesapeake Baysox for a second season.
The Baltimore Orioles recently named Tim Federowicz as the manager for Triple-A Norfolk, replacing Buck Britton. The Baltimore Sun was among the outlets reporting the move.
The starting lineups for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game are set to be revealed on July 6. While the fans have their say for the starting lineups, the most deserving All-Star starters could be very different than the actual starters.
When Buck Britton was promoted from Triple-A Norfolk’s manager to the Orioles major league staff, they needed a replacement, and on Friday, they hired 37-year-old Tim Federowicz to manager the Tides for the 2025 season.
A M-W-F digest, replete with #Cubs, #MLB, and #MiLB content, gathered from reputable sources. Happy birthday, Tim Federowicz! Hits, no-hits, another record broken by Slammin’ Sammy, and more.
