The Baltimore Orioles kicked off the MLB off-season with a flurry of activity, making fourteen player transactions that reshaped over a quarter of their forty-man roster. They signed veteran outfielder Leody Taveras and claimed Pedro León from the Astros, both known for their speed. The Orioles also added reliever Anthony Nunez to the roster. To make space, they parted ways with several players, including outfielders Dylan Carlson and Daniel Johnson, and relievers Carson Ragsdale, José Castillo, and Shawn Dubin. José Castillo was claimed by the Mets. The Orioles also designated lefty Josh Walker for assignment. In division news, the Tampa Bay Rays declined their option on closer Pete Fairbanks, who could be a potential target for the Orioles.
