-Will Anthony Santander move to 1B/DH this season?

-When can we start evaluating the international prospects that the Orioles sign?

-How will the new shift rules impact the Orioles in 2023?

-And much more!

The Baltimore Orioles were to try to trade for an ace this offseason, it seems like Corbin Burnes of the Milwaukee Brewers would be the guy. Host Connor Newcomb is joined by Brandon Sneide, the Host of Locked On Brewers, to explore some potential trades between the Brewers and Orioles that could get a starting pitcher to Baltimore.

Brandon talks about why Burnes is more likely to be dealt than Brandon Woodruff, and why the Orioles would have to give up a player like Jackson Holliday to get Burnes.

Then, Connor and Brandon discuss possible trades for Eric Lauer and Adrian Houser, and Ramón Urías continues to come up in those discussions.

It's still December, but with the Baltimore Orioles having already added four big-leaguers this offseason, it's never too early to make an Opening Day Roster Prediction. Host Connor Newcomb makes his first attempt of predicting the 26 players that will make the Orioles 2023 Opening Day Roster.

In terms of the pitchers, Connor talks about Grayson Rodriguez's chances, what role DL Hall will have, and why Keegan Akin, Nick Vespi, Austin Voth, and Mike Baumann are all on the bubble.

Then, for the hitters, Connor wonders if Austin Hays has an everyday role, how Terrin Vavra and Kyle Stowers fit in, and if the Orioles would rather have Ryan McKenna or Jordan Westburg on the roster to start the season.

**NOTE** - This episode was recorded before Nathan Eovaldi signed with the Texas Rangers.
