As the Baltimore Orioles continue to plummet in the standings, their status as sellers at the July 31 trade deadline is looking more and more like it's etched in stone. Still with an impressive young core, the team won't be looking at a total teardown, but rather to flip some short-term and ill-fitting pieces for longer-term options that better fit with their foundation.
There are several players who fit this bill, and one in particular who is becoming increasingly popular as the deadline nears. That player is closer Felix Bautista, and with the way the market is shaping up, dealing him at the deadline could give the Orioles a chance to procure the haul of their dreams.
