As the Orioles try to figure out what needs to be done over the course of this offseason, one important thing to get a handle on is what they’ve already got. They’ve probably already got their own projections about what to expect from their returning roster of players. Since the public won’t get to see those, Friday’s release of the 2025 Orioles ZiPS projections at FanGraphs is the best that we can do.
ZiPS’s creator, Dan Szymborski, notes that the projection for the 2025 Orioles is “to win somewhere between 85 and 90 games,” which is an unsurprising outcome considering right now it’s the 2024 Orioles roster minus Corbin Burnes and Anthony Santander.
