Jhonkensy Noel joins the O's on a waiver claim. He's fun, he has hurt the Yankees in the playoffs, and he's Big Christmas. But, is he good at baseball? We take a look at him, then spend most of the episode discussing Ranger Suarez, a name the O's have been connected to in many circles. With back issues and declining velocity, what makes Suarez attractive as a target?

Tatsuya Imai signed with the Houston Astros, leaving the remaining front-line free agent starters to Framber Valdez and Ranger Suarez. Where does that leave the Orioles and will the Orioles strike to add an ace?

Mike Elias went and got his veteran starter on a one-year deal. This time it's a familiar face: Zach Eflin. Does this mean the starting rotation is a finished product? Or are there more moves to come?

The Orioles swung another trade with the Tampa Bay Rays, breaking the convention of not trading with your division rivals for the third time in as many years. This time young righty Shane Baz has been added to the rotation. The Orioles gave up a number of intriguing prospects, four in total, and a Competitive Balance Round A pick. But, they have added 3 years of high heat and hard curveballs.

Ryan Helsley and Andrew Kittredge are two good veteran additions to the Orioles bullpen, but the unit still feels like it's missing an arm. Will Mike Elias bring another external solution, or will the help come from elsewhere in the organization?

The Orioles have made their biggest move in the Mike Elias era by signing Pete Alonso to a 5-year/$155 million contract. What does this mean for the Orioles?

The Winter Meetings are in sunny Orlando this year, and absolutely NOTHING is chill for the Baltimore Orioles. Orioles are throwing nine figures at the top bat on the market, they've confirmed meetings with the next best bat, and trade rumors abound every time you're ready for bed. It's an exciting time to be an O's fan, albeit a draining one.

The Orioles signed Ryan Helsley, one of the most dominant relievers of the 2020s, to a two-year contract. But, Helsley had a notable turn for the worse last year. What was behind that downturn, and should we have hope for improvement in this coming season? Is this another reclamation project like Craig Kimbrel? The answer is an emphatic no, it's not. Helsley is the real deal, tune in to find out why!

It's over! The Dodgers have won. The Orioles get to put an abysmal 2025 fully behind them. Hope abounds as a new offseason rolls in.... so like can the Orioles sign Dylan Cease today???? Unfortunately, no. But! YOU can listen to this podcast and get a primer on what important dates are coming our way in the early-going here, and how the O's are impacted by each.

The biggest domino of the offseason has already fallen. The Orioles have a new manager, and his name is Craig Albernaz. Let's dig through his resume and discuss what this means for the team in 2026 and beyond.

The Baltimore Orioles are searching for a manager in 2026 and have interviewed Albert Pujols. Will the Orioles hire the Hall of Fame inductee to be the next Orioles manager?

The Baltimore Orioles did not have one player on the 2025 team that hit 20 home runs by the end of the season. How did this happen?

The Orioles have an undrafted free agent cracking top 100 lists here in the end of 2025. That same UDFA had the fourth-most strikeouts of any pitcher in Minor League Baseball this year, and touched AAA in just his second full season. So, who is Trey Gibson?

Mike Elias isn't going anywhere. The Orioles handed him a promotion last offseason, and they just leaked it. Weird! Let's talk about it.
