BALTIMORE — Kyle Bradish<\/a> will make his 2025 debut on the mound for the Orioles<\/a> on Tuesday night, far too late to help Baltimore salvage an extremely disappointing season.<\/p>\n Bradish can, however, provide hope that next year might be a whole lot better — for the right-hander and the last-place Orioles.<\/p>\n Bradish hasn’t pitched in a big league game since June 2024. He underwent Tommy John surgery that same month and has since worked diligently to return to form.<\/p>\n Editor’s Picks<\/p>\n 2 Related<\/p>\n The results will be on display in his start against the Boston Red Sox<\/a> at Camden Yards.<\/p>\n “Obviously he’s been very miserable, not being able to help us this year and watching how this thing has gone,” interim manager Tony Mansolino said Monday.<\/p>\n Bradish went 12-7 with a 2.83 ERA in 2023 and finished fourth in the AL Cy Young Award balloting. He was 2-0 last year before going on the IL during a season in which the Orioles repeated as a playoff participant.<\/p>\n With Bradish and ace Grayson Rodriguez<\/a> opening the 2025 season on the injured list, Baltimore sputtered at the outset and never recovered. The loss of those two, along with subsequent injuries to pitchers Tyler Wells<\/a>, Zach Eflin<\/a> and Felix Bautista<\/a>, have left the Orioles with little chance to finish with a winning record.<\/p>\n Bradish can’t change that, but if he closes strong that could be a positive sign for next year.<\/p>\n “Just the confidence in having a regular offseason,” Mansolino said. “When guys go through injuries, there’s a lot of self-doubt. Are you going to be good enough when you come back? Well, he’s going to answer the question for himself in the next month.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aug 25, 2025, 05:59 PM ET BALTIMORE — Kyle Bradish will make his 2025 debut on the mound…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":110963,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[363,99],"class_list":["post-110962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=110962"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110962\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/110963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=110962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=110962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=110962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
