New Orioles manager makes staff move while big question still lingers

With the World Series now over, congrats to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Baltimore Orioles will likely have an introductory press conference for Craig Albernaz in the coming days. Albernaz isn't waiting to make changes, however. Multiple reports have confirmed that Robinson Chirinos won't be returning as the Orioles' bench coach.

2025 was Chirinos' first season on the Orioles' coaching staff, replacing Fredi González as Brandon Hyde's right-hand man. It was his first post on a Major League coaching staff, and needless to say, things could have been better. Hyde was fired within the first two months of the season, and the Orioles would go on to be one of the most disappointing teams in all of baseball.
