Baltimore Orioles

Baz, 26, is under team control for three more seasons. He returned from Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery in 2024 and did well, but he regressed some in 2025.

You might have never heard Robert Popik's name, but you've likely heard his music. Popik, who died last week at 59, was the DJ for the Orioles, Ravens and other local teams for more than two decades.

COLUMN: Lind's friendship with Anthony Villa, the Orioles’ director of player development, helped inform the team’s hitting philosophies. Now they’ll work together in Baltimore.

Baltimore also signed infielder Willy Vasquez to a minor league deal with a spring training invitation, the club said.

Michael King, Chris Bassitt and other intriguing starters are still out there.

Pete Alonso arrives at the right time, joining a young team that underperformed in 2025. With his presence, the atmosphere around the club is higher than it has been in some time.

The Orioles are remaking their reputation along with their roster this offseason.

Alonso and Taylor Ward are, to this point in the offseason, the most significant additions any club has made to its lineup.

“This is a very momentous and historic day for the Orioles franchise,” president of baseball operations Mike Elias said at the news conference to introduce the team’s $155 million first baseman.

There are some once-outlandish outcomes for the remainder of the Orioles’ offseason that are a lot more realistic.

Because of the addition of Alonso, Baltimore has a surplus at first base from which to deal.

Alonso hit 38 homers with a .272 average last season for the New York Mets.

The trickle-down effect on the Orioles roster could be felt in multiple ways, and this signing may only be the first major move in what could have a domino effect.

Free agency is a zero-sum game. One team wins and all the rest lose, and the Orioles now have a win on their ledgers.

The Orioles have finally made a free agent splash.

“The best part of Alby is you know where you stand,” Butera said. “So, anything that I ask him, he’ll shoot me straight.”

Here are five lefty relievers who could help the bullpen, with the main focus on middle relief.

The Orioles entered with a 9.24% chance to land the first overall pick.

The Orioles were firmly in the mix for designated hitter Kyle Schwarber, a source said, although multiple outlets reported that Schwarber opted to return to Philadelphia on a five-year, $150 million deal.

“They talked through what they need to do to get better and win games,” Albernaz said. “A lot of it has been just attacking the little things each day. That gets lost, especially with young players, but all baseball players."
