The Orioles dealt for Baz just last month to help spearhead their rotation. The 26-year-old has struggled to regain his pre-injury form since his once elite slider has not come back and posted a 4.87 ERA over 166 1/3 innings in 2025. However, he did have a strong 24.8 strikeout rate and added a cutter in the second half of the season that could help fuel a bit of a breakout in his new home.

Baz has always had more talent than his results have shown and given the massive haul of prospects that they were willing to give up, it appears as though the Orioles are a big believer that he can be a frontline piece of their rotation. The 26-year-old righty registered a 4.87 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and a 176/64 K/BB ratio over a career-high 166 1/3 frames across 31 starts in 2025. Baz is arbitration-eligible for the second time this winter and is under team control through the 2028 season.

Baz has always possessed more raw talent than his surface stats have shown and baed on the massive haul of prospects they were willing to give up, it appears as though the Orioles are a big believer that he can be a frontline piece of their rotation. The 26-year-old former top prospect registered a pedestrian 4.87 ERA — 4.37 FIP — 1.34 WHIP and 176/64 K/BB ratio over a career-high 166 1/3 frames across 31 starts this past season. His familiarity with the AL East is a bonus but the move from pitcher-friendly Tropicana Field to Camden Yards won’t do him any favors from a run-prevention standpoint. He’s an interesting middle-round upside gamble for fantasy purposes next spring.

Bieber is recovering from last year’s Tommy John surgery and has been throwing live batting practice and simulated games in Arizona. By all accounts, his velocity looks good and he’s able to throw all of his pitches, but the team is being cautious not to push his recovery too quickly. He will likely only need one or two starts in the complex league before moving up to Triple-A for a few more starts. He could return to the Guardians’ rotation by early July.

Drohan also struck out seven and walked two on the day, with the only damage coming on a solo home run to Trey Lipscomb. Drohan had a tremendous 2022 season with the Red Sox but struggled in 2023 and then was selected by the White Sox in the Rule 5 draft. An injury allowed the White Sox to keep him in the minor leagues for much of 2024 before he was eventually sent back to the Red Sox. So far this season, he has allowed two runs on six hits in 14 2/3 innings while striking out 23 and walking seven. Given the injuries and struggles of the Red Sox rotation, it would be fair to assume Drohan would get a chance ot start an MLB game at some point this season.
