The National Aquarium’s newest exhibit is putting the “wet” in wetlands.

First-Round Bust Could Get Second Chance With Panthers, Ravens
Cornerback Kaiir Elam has not worked out in Buffalo, and the Bills could trade him after two disappointing seasons. A first-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, Elam was supposed to solidify a talented secondary and help Buffalo slow down the elite passing attacks of the AFC. Instead, the Florida product has failed to make an impact at the professional level. Injuries limited Elam to just three games last year, but his on-field tape leaves plenty to be desired. According to Pro Football Focus, he had a subpar 58.8 grade in 2023 and an equally underwhelming 56.7 grade in 2022.

As the season kicks off, she looks forward to her first match at the Morgan/Towson Invitational on August 30th against Lehigh, with additional matches scheduled shortly after.
Ravens encouraged to cut ties with veteran wide receiver
It wouldn't be an overreaction to suggest the Baltimore Ravens could use reinforcements in the wide receiver room. The receiver position is thin outside WR1 Zay Flowers as Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor fail to deliver consistently. In an attempt to bolster the receiver room, the Ravens signed veteran receiver Russell Gage.
One Orioles All-Star Is Battling a Late Season Slump
Adley Rutschman, widely regarded as the face of the Baltimore Orioles franchise, has had an abysmal second half. What can he do to turn it around?. Selected with the first pick in the 2019 MLB draft, Rutschman was a bonified star from day 1. He quickly moved through the minor leagues, and in early 2022 made his MLB debut. Not only was his debut special because he was a former top prospect, but because that day was when the Orioles quit their losing ways. Since Rutschman’s debut on May 21, 2022, the Orioles have a .586 winning percentage, the third-best in the league. Rutschman marked the turning point for the Orioles. He then made his first All-Star game last season, and had a great first half this season, earning his second All-Star nod. However, Rutschman has struggled mightily in the second half of 2024. Similarly to how the Orioles were great because of Rutschman, they are now in danger of missing the postseason, partially due to Rutschman’s struggles.
Orioles' Cedric Mullins: Makes early exit Friday
Mullins was removed from Friday's game against the Astros with an apparent injury, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports. No reason has been given yet for Mullins' removal in the fifth inning, but the Orioles should offer some clarification in the near future. If the 29-year-old is forced to miss any amount of time, Austin Slater, who entered as Mullins' replacement, would be the likely choice to pick up some additional starts in the outfield.
Peter Schmuck: Pondering the possibility of a playoff-free October for the Orioles
This is no time to panic, but only because it wouldn’t do any good at this troubling point in what was supposed to be a slam-dunk playoff season. The Orioles have all but run out of pitching and the pressure that has been placed on the young offensive lineup is palpable. Even Cy Young candidate Corbin Burnes suddenly looks as though he’s afraid to attack hitters mid-count and the club is making roster moves like it’s the last few days of spring training.
