Orioles Expected to Lose Veteran Pitcher, Target Top Free Agents
The Atlanta Braves are facing a disappointing 62-76 season and are unlikely to make the playoffs, prompting speculation about roster changes, including potentially letting veteran slugger Marcell Ozuna leave in free agency due to declining performance. The Baltimore Orioles, despite injuries and setbacks, are positioning themselves to be active players in the upcoming free agency, targeting impact players like Kyle Schwarber, Framber Valdez, and Dylan Cease to bolster their lineup and rotation. Orioles are also likely to decline the 2026 option on utility player Jorge Mateo, as rookie Jeremiah Jackson has emerged as a promising versatile replacement. Additionally, veteran Orioles pitcher Zach Eflin, who showed promise after being acquired in 2024, is predicted not to return for 2026 following a season marred by injuries and poor performance. Meanwhile, the New York Yankees’ outfielder Trent Grisham, acquired in a December 2023 trade, is having a career year and has become a key player, though there are concerns he might not be re-signed despite his strong contributions. These developments highlight a period of transition and roster evaluation for several MLB teams as they prepare for the offseason and beyond.
