Baltimore Orioles fans have been begging for the team to finally start spending in a meaningful way for a long time. It was a popular criticism of the Orioles when the Angelos family owned them and while the new owners made some big promises, fans were getting anxious that it would be more of the same after the 2024 offseason in which Baltimore only shopped in the clearance aisle. This offseason, however, has been a drastically different story.
There was already more excitement around the Orioles this offseason given that they struck early and traded for Taylor Ward and signed Ryan Helsley.
