To his namesake, Mark Trumbo has stormed out of the gates as a surprising fan favorite. A larger than life character, an in-your-face swing and questionable defensive tactics are fitting to his newfound moniker. Though if you build Trumbo a wall, he won't raise his arms in contempt. He'll just a hit a baseball over it.

To no fault of his own, his acquisition was lost in the muck of the O's constant swirling amidst claims by "sources", among other typical Orioles shenanigans.
