That's a wrap for the 2025 season. We look back, look ahead, and mostly just try to look away.

Looks like he is a data nerd though and is huge on kinesiology and bat speed.
He’s gonna love Jeremiah Jackson and Basallo.

The Orioles enter the offseason with this positional depth chart. The chances it’s the one we see on opening day are very low, but I don’t expect a ton of changes. Mounty is likely non-tendered. They’ll look for an upgrade in the outfield. They don’t have a true backup SS, but might not care.
