The Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN) remains the primary home for Orioles baseball in 2026, prioritizing accessibility for cord-cutters in Maryland, D.C., Virginia, and beyond.

Kremer has been a staple of the Baltimore rotation for years, serving as a solid back-end guy. From 2022 to 2025, he tossed 599 1/3 innings over 109 appearances with a 3.95 earned run average.

Former player Robinson Chirinos will return to the Orioles but in a new role. The club announced that he will be working as a special assistant in the baseball operations and player development department. Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com was among those to relay the news, adding that Chirinos will "support players, coaches, and staff across our lower levels, providing leadership, mentorship, and reinforcement of organizational philosophies."

The Boston Red Sox bolstered their rotation with the additions of Sonny Gray and Ranger Suárez, along with a premium bat in Willson Contreras. As well, the New York Yankees traded for Ryan Weathers and re-signed star outfielder Cody Bellinger. But it's the Baltimore Orioles that have significantly revamped their disappointing roster from 2025 so far by recruiting Shane Baz, Ryan Helsley, Zach Eflin, Taylor Ward and of course star slugger Pete Alonso.

Arbitration hearing rooms are notorious for their unpredictability. Lawyers who have argued cases have left the room convinced they'd made airtight arguments -- and lost. Others were despondent in the aftermath, certain of defeat, and emerged victorious. Which is to say that whatever approach Tarik Skubal's team takes in trying to convince a three-person panel that he's worthy of the $32 million he's seeking instead of the $19 million the Detroit Tigers are offering, the ultimate result is a crapshoot.

Baltimore has made a pair of rotation additions this offseason. They sent four prospects and a draft pick to the Rays for , whom they control for three years. Baltimore also brought back on a one-year, $10MM deal after an injury-riddled season. They're in decent shape from a depth perspective. It still feels a little light at the top end. They're banking on Kyle Bradish in his first full season back from Tommy John surgery.

On Saturday, April 25, the first 20,000 fans who enter Oriole Park at Camden Yards for their game against the Boston Red Sox will receive an Orioles-branded hockey jersey. This year's cream-colored sweater is inspired by the Capitals' home and away jerseys, featuring a Baltimore Orioles wordmark logo influenced by the Caps' original mark. BALTIMORE is written in a slanted orange font over top orioles in black, with the L orange and shaped like a hockey stick.

A seventh-rounder by the Rangers back in 2016, the as-of-yesterday 28-year-old Huff has played in parts of five major league seasons. He once rated as one of the top catching prospects in the sport and carries a decent .247/.301/.430 batting line in the majors. That production comes in a sample of only 272 plate appearances and spite of a 36% strikeout rate, however. Huff's rate stats have been buoyed by a .350 average on balls in play.

With Christmas in the rear view mirror and start of a new week here, it could make sense for some more free agents to find new homes in the coming days. While still in the midst of the holiday season, recent years have shown activity can still be fast and furious. Perhaps the Braves can end 2025 and enter 2026 with their off-season basically complete if they can find a move for a starting pitcher they like this week.
