In a surprising turn of events, the Baltimore Orioles appointed Craig Albernaz as their new manager, with his former boss Stephen Vogt in attendance. Albernaz, a Massachusetts native with a strong coaching background, aims to lead the team back to winning ways after a challenging season. With young stars like Gunnar Henderson, Jackson Holliday, and Adley Rutschman on the roster, the Orioles are hopeful for a turnaround. Albernaz emphasizes authenticity and was compared to legendary manager Earl Weaver by owner David Rubenstein. The team also strengthened their bullpen by re-acquiring reliever Andrew Kittredge from the Chicago Cubs.
