Baltimore Orioles Suites

The 2017 Baltimore Orioles are ready to take on the heavy spenders in the American League East. With the Red Sox, Yankees and Blue Jays all making major moves that are coming at a high cost, the Orioles believe the team they finished with last season has what it takes to compete this year. The Orioles have the offensive weapons, the defense and the bullpen to take on any of their rivals.

Manager Buck Showalter is hopeful one of his young talented pitchers emerges as the team’s ace by season end. That would either be Dylan Bundy or Kevin Gausman. Both Bundy and Gausman are former first round draft picks with the skills to be top of the rotation pitchers. Filling out the staff are veterans Ubaldo Jimenez, Chris Tillman and Wade Miley. The Orioles traded Yovani Gallardo to the Mariners. The bullpen is the Orioles strength led by their all-star closer, Zach Britton. Britton nearly won the AL Cy Young award in 2016.

Third baseman Manny Machado is an MVP in the making. Machado is arguably the best defensive and offensive third baseman in all of baseball. Machado’s corner counterpart, Chris Davis, is no stranger of hitting the long ball. Chris Davis improved on the defensive end as well last season. Up the middle, J.J. Hardy and Jonathan Schoop are both power hitting players for their respective positions. In the outfield, Adam Jones is still one of better all-around players at his position. Jones is strongest defender in the Orioles have in the outfield, both Mark Trumbo and Hyun Soo Kim can hit the ball a long way but neither one covers a lot of ground. Kim in his first year with the Orioles led the team in batting average and on-base percentage. No longer will Orioles fans see Matt Wieters behind the plate. Wieters left via free agency. Instead the Orioles signed Welington Castillo to be their catcher. As far as the DH position, the Orioles are hopeful rookie Try Mancini can be a breakout star and they also acquired Seth Smith in the Gallardo trade.

The American League East division is one of the most competitive divisions in all of baseball. The Red Sox, Blue Jays and Yankees are all playoff caliber teams.  The key to the Orioles success this season will be their pitching staff.

Last season, they signed Yovani Gallardo but lost Bruce Chen. Chris Tillman, Ubaldo Jimenez, Miguel Gonzalez and Kevin Gausman will round out the rotation. Gausman hasn’t broken out like many thought he would after being named a top 20 prospect in baseball. A breakout year for Gausman will go a very long way for the Orioles. After making the All-Star team in 2013, Tillman hasn’t regained that form. If the Orioles can get quality starts from their key pitchers, they will be able to compete in most games. Unlike the starting rotation, the Orioles bullpen is one of the best in baseball. Zach Britton was one of the most successful closers last year. Darren O’Day and Brian Matusz both performed outstanding in the set-up role.

The Orioles biggest move this offseason was resigning Chris Davis. Davis is the middle of the order bat they couldn’t afford to lose. They didn’t stop there either, they signed Pedro Alvarez and international signee Hyun-soo Kim. Both Kim and Alvarez are power hitters. They also resigned Matt Wieters to be back at catcher. Mark Trumbo will get his first full season with the Orioles after being traded to Baltimore late last season. Manager Buck Showalter is known for mixing up the lineup on almost a daily basis. Near the top of the order will be Manny Machado and Adam Jones. Machado is arguably the best third baseman in the game and Adam Jones is still one of the league’s best center fielders. All the way down this lineup, you will find players who can hit the ball far including J.J. Hardy and Jonathan Schoop.

The Baltimore Orioles had a fantastic 2014 season but came up short of the World Series after losing in the American League Championship Series. The Orioles feel strongly about making another run into the postseason. The Orioles didn’t make many moves to improve this offseason. Some of their key players from a year ago have moved on to different teams including Nick Markakis, Nelson Cruz and Andrew Miller. The team hopes for a bounce back year from Chris Davis. Davis struggled throughout the season and got suspended at the end of the year. Another player the Orioles need a healthy comeback from his is their young third baseman Manny Machado. Machado suffered another knee injury last year. Machado has the makeup of an All-Star third baseman when healthy. Catcher Matt Wieters also had his season cut short due to Tommy John surgery. All-Star Adam Jones is one of the league’s most consistent run producers. Jones is a phenomenal centerfielder and brings home run power to the Orioles lineup. Steve Pearce will look to follow up his 21 home runs from a year ago. J.J. Hardy remains at shortstop and is one of the league’s best power hitters at the shortstop position. Manager Buck Showalter knows he has one of the top scoring lineups in the American League but it’s his pitching rotation that continues to surprise him. The Orioles had solid years out of Chris Tillman, Wei-Yin Chen, Bud Norris, Miguel Gonzales and Kevin Gausman.
