Passan dropping the hammer on Nightengale on a Saturday afternoon who says the MLB offseason isn’t spicy

This makes the Orioles' offseason so much more reliant on free agency and that's pretty worrisome

Agree with this. Suarez as the Big Addition would feel a touch underwhelming. But it'd still help.

I had a vision last night about reading MLBTR, seeing the iconic red headline font and it read: "Orioles Sign Framber Valdez". Felt right, felt true.

lol Buck such a little pot stirrer

in elias era, lack of orioles mentioned = confirmed orioles interest i tell myself nervously

My Lofty Winter Meetings Goals for the O's: ▶️Trade for a SP (Ryan/Lopez/Peralta, etc) ▶️Lay the groundwork for Imai ▶️Sign or trade for a LHRP

Oh hell yeah

Memorial Day: Cedric Mullins returns to Camden Yards. 🧡

Os are def gonna sign their mid rotation guy before they get their top of rotation guy and we're all going to melt down about it for like two weeks

Kinda taking the O's top 3 over the Jays if the O's sign Valdez Cease Gausman Yesavage Valdez Bradish Rogers

How's that Helsley physical going?

Imai is The Guy™

Any Orioles transaction

Updated bullpen projection: Helsey Kittredge Akin Cano Enns Strowd Garcia Wells hopefully pending SP additions Room to add more for sure.

Ok ok ok ok. Solid work to nab Helsey before the closer market got too dicey/thin. I don't think Mike should stop there with the bullpen though

coaches who have won two consecutive playoff games more recently than john harbaugh -jim harbaugh (not even including michigan) -pete carroll (fired) -john fox (fired) -chuck pagano (fired, returned to ravens) -bill belichick (fired) -gary kubiak (left harbaugh's staff, won a super bowl, retired)

I think it's gonna be King and Fairbanks. Former AL East guys who are below the insane $ range and if you squint hard enough can be considered as filling two needs.

Sigh

They're killing it on coaching hires. I remain nervous about player acquisitions. Taveras, Kittredge, Ward is a nice start before Thanksgiving, but it's still pretty Elias-y

are you even an O's fan if you're not crashing out about the very first SP to leave the board? ah, NOW it feels like the offseason

Orioles radio/TV play-by-play announcer Geoff Arnold will not be returning in 2026, sources say. He was recently named one of Front Office Sports 26 rising pxp stars. Spent 5 years at Class-A before making the jump to MASN in 2020.

Good week to lock up a closer

mike is either about to cook real hard, or we are about to witness the most hilarious offseason faceplant imaginable

I feel like we're careening towards Fairbanks if Williams and Diaz reup in NY. Suarez a wild card but we just dumped his brother

Mounty avoiding being non-tendered

Wild! Good for him. Mayo might be trade bait. What a fascinating offseason its been so far

Elias is really cookin', huh? I don't know what the recipe is and I don't know if it's gonna taste good, but man is in there stirring that pot

Payton Eeles wishes you would

From an MLBTR article by Dierkes:

this coaching staff slaps

Not me slowly settling into the relief of not having to worry about Grayson Rodriguez anymore

I know the trade is a tough one, but I don't really get these non-local media takes where they're like, "This makes no sense for the Orioles!! Unless, I guess, they're worried about his medicals...?" Like, yeah man! That's the trade! It doesn't happen unless that's the case.

Major gains and losses so far: +Taylor Ward +Andrew Kittredge +New deal for Dietrich Enns +Leody Taveras -Grayson Rodriguez -Jorge Mateo -Dylan Carlson Mike has his 4th OF, his big RH OF bat, and a couple of solid relievers while also installing 6 coaches. All before Thanksgiving.

2B Holliday 3B Westburg SS Henderson LF Ward C Rutschman CF Cowser RF O'Neill/Beavers DH Basallo 1B Mayo Ton of power potential in there.

I do like dingers tho

Live look at Mike Elias rn

Trade thoughts 1) Mike sold as low as you can on Grayson which tells me they have no confidence in him health-wise, even as a reliever. 2) Ward is a fun addition to this lineup; rental is a bummer. 3) We're out on FA bats. 4) Teams weren't buying GR as part of a pckg for top arm a la Hall/Burnes.

Lol

Come home Ramon

I wonder if the O's trade Maverick today

It was funny when we paid Gary Sanchez $8.5M.

Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like: saw on news , , can we replce complianc dept with web 3 and a worker tier whose emails are like: Dear Jim, First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…

I like keeping the pitching coach core together. They were without Grayson, Bradish, and Wells. They managed to fix Morton in time to trade him. Trevor Rogers. A gutted bullpen full of no-names did surprisingly well in the 2nd half
