Baltimore Orioles

In 2024, when he spent time with the Cleveland Guardians and Atlanta Braves, Laureano recorded an .869 OPS vs. lefties.

I didn’t learn a lot this past weekend at the handful of Birdland Caravan events I went to, but the takeaway was meaningful.

“At least until pitchers and catchers [report],” Elias said, “we’re going to be working the offseason like we always do.”

According to MLB’s baserunning metrics from Statcast via baseballsavant.com, the Orioles went from being one of the best teams in terms of adding value on the bases in 2023 to league average in 2024.

With outfielder Anthony Santander removed from the equation, there could be additional opportunities for Kjerstad to play, even with the signing of Tyler O’Neill. And Kjerstad knows it.

The Orioles rolled with five outfielders on their big league roster for much of 2024. Carlson opens the door for that possibility again in 2025.

Contract extensions have been exceedingly rare for the Orioles. Could Adam Jones help change that?

Gunnar Henderson will share a cover on “MLB The Show 25” with Elly De La Cruz of the Cincinnati Reds and Paul Skenes of the Pittsburgh Pirates on this year’s edition of the popular video game series.

“Having the opportunity to be around the game that I love, while also learning the operations side of baseball from one of the best general managers is truly an honor,” Jones said.

The switch-hitter batted .209 between the teams and showed limited power with a .563 on-base-plus-slugging percentage.

For 2025, the Orioles’ director of player development said around half of the staff members in his department are in new spots.

Letting Santander leave is one thing, but having to face him 13 times a season is another.

The question that will define the Orioles’ season isn’t going to be whether they spent enough, but did they spend it well?

The new Birdland Value Menu will be available at select locations throughout the stadium and feature eight different food options for under $4

In relying on Tyler O’Neill and Heston Kjerstad to replace Anthony Santander, the Orioles went with a cheaper path. But it’s not without risk.

The contract is for five years and more than $90 million, according to multiple reports.

The Orioles’ moves stack up well against their American League East rivals.

Sasaki will join fellow Japanese stars Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto in a move many baseball executives have long expected.
