Baltimore Orioles
It's hard to tell what was most unusual about last season in the AL East. Baltimore and Tampa Bay took the top two spots in the division, the first time that had ever happened. The AL East has changed a lot from the days when the big-market behemoths would overpower the rest of the division. Tampa Bay has been a formidable operation for a while now, and the Orioles capped a swift rise from the depths of a rebuild, winning 101 games and a division title in 2023.

Baseball season is near, and spring training offers a little respite for Eve Rosenbaum. Rosenbaum is a Marylander who is the assistant general manager for the Orioles and is one of just a handful of women to ever reach that level in the hierarchy of Major League Baseball. The work on potential trades, the international scouting, she manages all the different sub-departments in operations. Rosenbaum grew up an Orioles fan in Bethesda, Montgomery County, and graduated from Walt Whitman High School before she went on to play softball at Harvard.

The stands at Ed Smith Stadium on a Tuesday afternoon in March were filled to the brim with bright orange Baltimore Orioles shirts — an impressive feat considering it was Tampa Bay country, and that happened to be the team the Os were facing. The stadium in Sarasota, Florida is the Orioles' home away from home for spring training. Although Tampa Bay fans made a showing, they were vastly outnumbered by the Orioles' faithful.

Insider Makes Bold Claim on How Good the Baltimore Orioles Are An MLB insider made a bold claim about how good the Baltimore Orioles are right now. Author: Jon Conahan Publish date: Mar 18, 2024 7:00 PM EDT In this story: Baltimore Orioles After winning 101 games and the American League East in 2023, the Baltimore Orioles have more expectations than nearly every other team in baseball. While they'll be filled with young talent again and are years ahead of schedule, this is the territory that comes with what the Orioles did last season. All signs point to them succeeding again as they proved they can win at a high level. Will Leitch of MLB.com released his power rankings heading into the

As Major League Baseball's opening day approaches, so, too, does the official transfer in Orioles ownership. The Angelos family — longtime owners of the Orioles — agreed earlier this year to sell the club and its assets, valued at $1.725 billion, to a group led by Baltimore native and billionaire David Rubenstein. The sale of a controlling stake has received preliminary approval from a committee of MLB owners, but is awaiting formal approval from a full vote of owners. In the meantime, the Maryland Stadium Authority board will, for the first time, formally discuss Wednesday the transfer in ownership.

Coby Mayo disagrees with the framing through which some view the Orioles' top-ranked farm system. Mayo is one of six Orioles who appear on at least one major top 100 list, with the majority of them having reached Triple-A. Baltimore's brass has difficult roster decisions to make this spring with the position-player battles mostly pitting established big leaguers against top prospects. “I don't think there's a logjam,” Mayo said. The Orioles' farm system, though, is far less jammed now than a year ago, especially among infielders.

During his time in the big leagues over the past two seasons, Kyle Stowers almost exclusively played against right-handed pitchers. The left-handed hitting outfield prospect displayed impressive power in the minors against both righties and lefties, but when he's been on manager Brandon Hyde's bench, he hasn't been given the chance to hit against southpaws. This spring, Stowers seemed out to prove that he was more than a platoon player by crushing left-handed pitching during live batting practice sessions and the beginning of Grapefruit League play with each of his first four homers coming left-on-left. There was one small problem, though: Stowers wasn't hitting righties, going just 1-for-19 with nine strikeouts.
