Good Morning, Birdland!
The Winter Meetings are still a month away. That is the point in the offseason where things tend to really take off. For now, we mostly have to sift through rumors that could maybe, sorta, kinda happen. The Orioles, it seems, will be in the thick of those discussions for a good chunk of the winter.
So far, the team has been named in rumors connected to outfielder Teoscar Hernández and left-handed starter Max Fried. Both of those players make sense, albeit with caveats.
Hernández is a right-handed, power-hitting outfielder that also comes with playoff experience (the guy JUST won the World Series).
