RĆki Sasaki is still out there for someone to sign, but the Oriolesâ first actual rotation acquisition ended up being 35-year-old Japanese star Tomoyuki Sugano.
Jon Meoli: The Orioles are again playing a dangerous game as they pursue rotation upgrades
Just because the most prominent national baseball voices think they should do more doesnât mean they have to.
Jon Meoli: Tyler OâNeill raises the Oriolesâ offensive ceiling by strengthening a strength
OâNeill is a hard-contact merchant who walks a decent amount but also has some swing and miss to his game.
Jon Meoli: What if the Orioles have to get creative to add the right-handed bat they covet?
The Orioles have a number of routes to choose from if they donât land one of the top free agents.
Inside the Dugout: Defining value in the pitching market
Weâre still learning about how the Orioles are going to operate in this new, cash-flush existence of theirs.
Jon Meoli: When the run on free agent pitching starts, will the Orioles jump in?
No one truly thought the Orioles would end up with a top-end starter in the winters they signed Jordan Lyles or Kyle Gibson. This winter, thatâs the expectation.
Inside the Dugout: 4 takeaways from Baseball Americaâs Orioles prospect list
It was inevitable that the Oriolesâ top prospects list would eventually become unrecognizable after graduating and trading away so much talent.
Jon Meoli: Just how risky do the Oriolesâ want to be when it comes to free agent pitching?
They can shop for free agents previously thought to be off limits, but it remains to be seen what the Orioles will do when they open their wallet.
Jon Meoli: What should we make of the Oriolesâ new group of hitting coaches?
Elevating Asche and Sherman Johnson into prominent roles suggests the practices may not change much.

If the Orioles are searching in free agency, itâs hard to say thereâs an exact fit for veteran players.
Jon Meoli: Japanese phenom Roki Sasaki should want to pitch for the Orioles
The Orioles can be as competitive as anyone when it comes to money, and they have the need atop their rotation.
Jon Meoli: What the first week of the Oriolesâ offseason might tell us about the rest of it
It feels as if at least this much is true: If youâre worth the money, the Orioles are more than willing to pay it. Thatâs always been true to an extent, but it feels more unqualified than ever.
Jon Meoli: How would Anthony Santander fit in an Oriolesâ lineup thatâs less reliant on home runs?
Itâs hard to reconcile the Oriolesâ desire to rely less on home runs and the potential for a long-term Santander contract.
Inside the Dugout: The World Series is about massive stars. Do the Orioles have one?
The Orioles are going to have no shortage of good players across their roster in the coming years, but stardom is another thing.
Inside the Dugout: The Orioles pulled off the rebuild. Now they plan to spend.
There is well over a half-billion dollars in this year's World Series, which will likely lead to calls for the Orioles to spend more money. I think weâre past the point of that even being necessary.
Jon Meoli: Adley Rutschmanâs role in the Oriolesâ decline was significant. Will we ever know what happened?
Itâs unfair to put too much of what happened with these Orioles on Rutschmanâs shoulders.
Jon Meoli: Why first base might be the position that defines the Oriolesâ offseason
It is going to be fascinating to see what the Orioles do at this position.
Inside the Dugout: What Orioles coaching changes really mean
