The Baltimore Orioles finished the 2024 season in second place in the American League East with 91 wins and 71 losses.
Although the Orioles finished second for the second straight season, they again lost their first series in the wild-card round to the Kansas City Royals.
The Orioles are winless in the past two postseasons and have been swept in both series they have played.
The Orioles need to be extremely aggressive this offseason, according to MLB analyst Anthony Castrovins.

The Orioles have looked dominant at times in the regular season over the past two years, but they’ve fallen short in the playoffs.
2024 Two of the Orioles’ all-star players can be free agents this offseason, including Anthony Santander and Corbin Burns.
Castrovins notes that the Orioles have a deep farm system with plenty of talent, and they should take advantage of their winning window.
He suggests either re-signing Burns or possibly signing another free agent starter like Blake Snell.
The Orioles have three World Series titles in their franchise history, but they haven’t won one since 1983, which was the last time they appeared in one.
There appears to be a lot of free agent talent in this year’s free agent class, and Castrovins believes the Orioles should be aggressive in signing some of these players.
After winning the AL East in 2023, the Orioles will look to retake the division from the New York Yankees in the 2025 season.
