The Orioles addressed a pair of needs over the weekend by signing outfielder Tyler O’Neill and catcher Gary Sánchez. Baltimore still must add at least one starter and one reliever, and the club remains active in the pitching market, but that doesn’t mean it cannot take care of its own.
Adley Rutschman emerged as the face of the rebuild on the first day of the 2019 MLB draft. The Birds selected Rutschman with the number one overall pick out of Oregon State, and Rutschman was immediately labeled the top-ranked prospect in Baltimore’s system.
Rutschman became the first of three consecutive Orioles to be named the top prospect in all of baseball.
