He’s heading into his age-30 season and doing so on the heels of a .235/.308/.506 batting line.
An old Braves friend is taking an international route to try to get back to the major leagues, as Dan Kurtz reports the Lotte Giants of the Korea Baseball Organization announced they’ve signed Tucker Davidson.
The Orioles need a starting pitcher. Why not reunite with one of the best?
The Orioles came into the offseason with a checklist that included a backup catcher, a right-handed hitting outfielder, and a front-of-the-rotation starting pitcher. They knocked those first two off the list with Gary Sánchez and Tyler O’Neill, but still need to address the third.
Corbin Burnes had a fantastic 2024 season for the Orioles. When the season ended and he declared free agency, it only made...

Pitcher List cites an anonymous source claiming that the Orioles general manager is purposely refusing to spend significant money on free agents.
Good morning, Camden Chatters.
With every day that passes without the Orioles making a significant pitching acquisition, the fan base gets increasingly grumpier. The Yankees have landed their ace (Max Fried) this winter. So have the Red Sox (Garrett Crochet). The O’s, meanwhile, may well lose their ace,...

With other frontline starting pitchers quickly coming off the board, the Padres’ ace might be an unexpected option for the O’s.
Look, folks. The Orioles need an ace. You know it. I know it. The Orioles know it.
But boy, was that point hammered home at the just-concluded MLB Winter Meetings. On consecutive days, two of the Orioles’ AL East rivals acquired top-of-the-line starting pitchers, first with the Yankees signing ace lefty Max Fried to an eight-year, $218...

The trade of Garrett Crochet takes another name who might have improved the Orioles off the board.
Hello, friends.
There are now three months and 15 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2025, and probably around two months and two days until pitchers and catchers report for the start of spring training. They still haven’t announced that officially, but it’ll be some time right around there because the first spring training game is announced for February 22...
The Texas Rangers agreed to terms with right-handed relief pitcher Jacob Webb on a one-year contract on Wednesday. Webb, 31, became a free agent after last season, when he set career bests for innings pitched (56.2) and strikeouts (58) in his first full season with the Baltimore Orioles.

The 24-year-old Nuñez, acquired for Jorge López, has yet to pitch above High-A.
In past eras of the Orioles, the Rule 5 draft was one of the staples of the offseason calendar, with both Mike Elias and his predecessor Dan Duquette often using the draft to try to pluck less heralded minor leaguers straight to the majors and see what would happen. That’s been the pattern, but for the second straight year the O’s went through...
Right-hander Corbin Burnes entered the offseason as the consensus top rotation option available in free agency, but following last night’s reported agreement between the Yankees and Max Fried he now stands as the only ace-level pitcher available on the open market this winter.

A delivery tweak has the 32-year-old lefty looking more interesting now.
So—the Orioles won’t sign Max Fried, after all, as the lefty signed late on Tuesday for 7 years, $218 million with the Yankees (grr). They’re apparently not in the running for Chicago’s Garrett Crochet. With Corbin Burnes predicted to get six years and nine digits, it’s not wise to hold your breath for a reunion with the ace, although they could still elbow...

Things are happening, the Orioles are planning, and we are waiting.
Good Morning, Birdland,
Some of the bigger free agent dominoes are beginning to fall, including pitchers that the Orioles were reportedly interested in at various points of the offseason. The big one was Max Fried, who is joining the Yankees on an eight-year, $218 million deal, a record for a left-handed pitcher. Meanwhile, Nathan Eovaldi is staying put in Texas, signing a three-year, $75 million with...
This Sunday afternoon, the Dallas Cowboys will meet the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium to continue the NFL Week 15. The Dallas Cowboys are third in the NFC East after winning five games and losing seven so far.
On February 2, 2024, the Baltimore Orioles sent shockwaves through Major League Baseball by acquiring ace starting pitcher Corbin Burnes from the Milwaukee Brewers.

Flaherty didn’t put his best foot forward in his Orioles tenure, but bounced back in 2024.
I don’t want the Orioles to sign Jack Flaherty. He’s not really on my wish list. Other CC writers have covered my preferred guys. Flaherty’s post-trade performance with the team in 2023 was so poor that I don’t care to see him pitch for the team again. This is not a reaction rooted in rationality. Flaherty’s bounce-back performance this year does strongly...

Mike Elias says the O’s are “talking to everybody” in their pursuit of a top-of-the-rotation starting pitcher.
Good morning, Camden Chatters.
After Juan Soto rocked the baseball world on Sunday night with his decision to sign with the Mets, all was relatively quiet yesterday in the first full day of MLB’s Winter Meetings. There were no major signings or trades beyond the Phillies taking a chance on former Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano and the Tigers...
Reports over the weekend suggested that the Orioles weren’t keen on giving up a compensatory draft pick in order to sign a pitcher who rejected a qualifying offer, which would seemingly rule out Max Fried, Sean Manaea, and Nick Pivetta from the team’s list of possible targets.

With the new ownership group fully established, the time has come for the Orioles to lock up the first of their young stars.
The Orioles addressed a pair of needs over the weekend by signing outfielder Tyler O’Neill and catcher Gary Sánchez. Baltimore still must add at least one starter and one reliever, and the club remains active in the pitching market, but that doesn’t mean it cannot take care of its own.
Adley Rutschman emerged as the face of the rebuild...

With the slugger headed to the Mets for a record-breaking 15 years and $765 million, the hot stove action could pick up pace at the Winter Meetings.
Good morning, Camden Chatters.
To the two or three Orioles fans who were holding out hope that the O’s would sign Juan Soto, I hate to disappoint you. The slugger has reached his decision, agreeing late last night with the New York Mets on a whopping 15-year, $765 million deal, the largest in MLB history in both...
The Braves offseason is off to a slow start, but dominos are beginning to fall, even with the biggest one still standing in Juan Soto. The thought was that Soto’s free agent decision would be the gunshot to MLB’s Hot Stove track meet, but with Blake Snell and Willy Adames now off the market, clubs are beginning to ink deals with other free agents.

Pending physicals for each, the Orioles have signed OF Tyler O’Neill as well as C Gary Sánchez.
Hello, friends.
There are now three months and 19 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2025, with spring training’s beginning (not officially announced yet) roughly two months and a handful of days away. More immediately, the winter meetings start tomorrow. The Orioles have already gotten in on the pre-meetings activity with last night’s reported signing...
