The Baltimore Orioles could transform Major League Baseball if they pull off one of these three blockbuster trades this offseason. But are these deals even realistic?
With Craig Albernaz now the Orioles' manager, the front office will shift focus to rebuilding the roster. Despite some high-potential players, the team endured a season marked by regression and injuries, making it risky to count on a simple rebound.
The Orioles clearly need to strengthen their pitching staff and are rumored to seek a game-changing hitter, preferably a center fielder. However, free agency is unlikely to be the main route, as the team hasn't embraced big spending recently.
This offseason is expected to be headline-driven by a major trade. Importantly, these ideas aren’t mere rumors—some players might be available, though various factors could block deals. Others might not be on the market at all, but their involvement would drastically alter the baseball landscape.
Mike Trout easily falls under the category of a player who may not even be on the trade block this offseason. That said, the Los Angeles Angels have dealt with speculation that they may trade Trout for the last few years.
The Orioles’ offseason will likely focus on bold moves to fix roster weaknesses, eyeing both top pitching talent and an impact bat to reverse recent struggles.
These potential trades highlight the Orioles’ ambition to rapidly reshape their future and make a dramatic impact on Major League Baseball.
