While the Baltimore Orioles are slogging through a rebuild and the 2020’s are upon us, I thought this would be a good time to lay out what fans can hope for and expect over the next five years.
The Orioles are facing another last-place finish in 2020, and that is not a bad thing. The many losses this season will certainly be painful, but after trading away Dylan Bundy and Jonathan Villar, the Orioles are more likely to have the worst record overall and another number one overall pick. Unlike this year, whereas many as five different players could be taken first, Vanderbilt pitcher Kumar Rocker, famous for a dominant no-hitter in the NCAA Tournament, is the clear favorite for the first pick in 2021.
