The Orioles hitters can be pretty imposing when they’re on their game. But one thing jumps out when you look up and down the lineup. It is riddled with lefties. Inserting a heavy-hitting righty into the mix could take the team to another level against lefty starters that often stymied the team. Having it be an outfielder would be even better. Enter Tyler O’Neill.
Gunnar Henderson, Jackson Holliday, Ryan O’Hearn, Colton Cowser, Heston Kjerstad, and Cedric Mullins bat from the left side. The free agency of Anthony Santander means that, without a move this offseason, those last three are the starting outfielders.
