Orioles positional preview: Outfield

Baltimore’s outfield has represented the most solidified position group in the Mike Elias era. Elias inherited Cedric Mullins, Austin Hays and Anthony Santander from the previous regime and has reaped the benefits.

The trio have endured the duration of the rebuild, but the results have varied quite a bit. Mullins began 2019 as the starting center fielder but fell all the way to Bowie after significant struggles at the plate. He rebounded during the 60-game spring in 2020, but broke out in a big way the following season.

Mullins exploded in 2021 after he dropped switch-hitting to become a full-time left-handed hitter.
