Saying this has the makings of a drama-free camp out loud probably ensures that won’t be the case, but I’m quite looking forward to the possibility of it.  

Once spring training is complete, the Orioles will begin work on the 42,500-square-foot facility.

With Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins, Tyler O’Neill, Heston Kjerstad, Ramón Laureano and Dylan Carlson, you have a reasonably priced group of outfielders you can deploy in favorable matchups as Brandon Hyde, his staff and the front office deem fit.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

If we’re talking about true regret, and past free agency playbooks that the Orioles should avoid, it’s one that’s potentially weeks away from playing out.

Even allowing for the year-over-year payroll increase the Orioles are expected to make from 2024 to 2025, the way the team is operating has an air of keeping one’s powder dry for something else.

The Orioles have done a lot to improve the 2025 roster compared to where it would have been.

As the Orioles look to unseat some teams and win in October, they’ll need operate more like the teams that shine in October do.

Looking at other pitchers who have gone from Nippon Professional Baseball to Major League Baseball, and how they fared.

Rōki Sasaki is still out there for someone to sign, but the Orioles’ first actual rotation acquisition ended up being 35-year-old Japanese star Tomoyuki Sugano.

Just because the most prominent national baseball voices think they should do more doesn’t mean they have to.

O’Neill is a hard-contact merchant who walks a decent amount but also has some swing and miss to his game.
