option. That’s encouraging.”

Tsuyoshi Wada throws breaking balls in latest bullpen session

Orioles P Chen wants to be more competitive
Wei-Yin Chen has become Baltimore's biggest winner.
Just 12 months ago, Chen was an unknown for the Orioles.
The 27-year-old Taiwan native arrived in Baltimore by way of Japan, where he spent four seasons. The unknown turned into a huge bargain for Baltimore, who signed him to a three-year, $11 million contract before the 2012 season.
Japanese left-hander Tsuyoshi Wada and...
Tsuyoshi Wada Injury: Orioles SP not expected back until May or June
After he underwent Tommy John surgery last year, the Baltimore Orioles want to make sure they are as cautious as possible with Tsuyoshi Wada. Wada is not expected to return from the injury until May or June of this year. This is not due to a setback or delay in his rehab. It's simply a precautionary decision.
The Orioles pitching coach, Rick Adair said on WBAL radio...
Orioles Injury News: Tsuyoshi Wada Tommy John Update
During the Winter Meetings, the Baltimore Orioles told media that Tsuyoshi Wada was ahead of schedule in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. Wada underwent the surgery in May.

Wei-Yin Chen’s Surprising Fastball
With an inability to develop quality arms stateside, the Baltimore Orioles have made an attempt to solve their pitching woes through the international market. Specifically, the Orioles have dove headfirst into Asia — too aggressively for the tastes of some in the Far East — bringing in two starting pitchers for 2012 in Tsuyoshi Wada and Wei-Yin Chen. Wada will spend the year...
Arrieta pitches gem; Orioles take two out three from Yankees, Wada
The Baltimore Orioles this season have continued to amaze me. We all know their next few weeks are going to be tough, but so far they are continuing to roll.
Last night, they defeated the New York Yankees, 6-0, in the Bronx. Jake Arrieta perhaps threw his best game as an Oriole, going eight shutout innings, striking out nine and stifling a tough New York lineup.
Matt Wieters hit...

Orioles' Wada may be facing surgery
Lefty Tsuyoshi Wada has an injury to his left elbow and could be facing surgery. There was no specific terminology given to the injury, which Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter deemed "a problem" following Tuesday's 2-1 win over Toronto. Showalter stopped short of calling it a tear, but the issue is with the ligament in his
pitching elbow. It's an injury...

MLB Excitement With a Failing Team
If you’re living in the Northeast part of the county, you know that spring is finally here. Temperatures are starting to rise, flowers are starting to bloom and the Major League Baseball season is here. Technically, the first MLB game was played late Tuesday night with the Seattle Mariners defeating the Oakland Athletics 3-1 in Japan. If you ask me, the real MLB season doesn...
Swarzak, Twins shut out Orioles
SARASOTA, Fla. (AP) -- The first spring start for Japanese left-hander Tsuyoshi Wada didn't go exactly how the Baltimore Orioles planned it -- not in length of appearance, and certainly not in the results.
Wada gave up four runs and four hits in three innings during the Minnesota Twins' 5-0 victory Tuesday. Wada walked two, struck out three and was pulled from his abbreviated...

The Minnesota Twins scored four runs off Japanese left-hander Tsuyoshi Wada and held the Baltimore Orioles hitless until the eighth inning in a 5-0 exhibition victory Tuesday.
Making his first start since being signed in the offseason as a free agent, Wada was pulled after three innings because of a high pitch count. He threw 62 pitches, including 30 in a three-run second.

Another Proud Day for the Baltimore Orioles
New Orioles General Manager Dan Duquette has made no secret of the fact that he wishes to expand the O’s presence in foreign scouting markets, especially those in Asia. While Asian baseball hasn’t produced any real superstars other than Ichiro, more than a few serviceable major league players have come over to the United States from Japan, Korea, and other nations. So far already...
