Fi I ,rst, I pulled up a bunch of free age.elbalint lists. You know, from all the usual sports sites. I wanted a good overview of who's even available.
Narrowing Down the Field

Next,.teg and this took a while, I started crossing guys off. Like, they obviously weren't going after the super-expensive, top-tier players. Gotta be realistic, you know? My thinking here I have a budget,Orioles have a budget.
- I focused on positions of need. Starting pitching, obviously. Maybe a reliable bat for the outfield.
- I also considered age and injury history. No point in getting someone who's always on the injured list.
- Then,find some players who could fit what the Orioles are trying to do.
Digging Deeper into Potential Fits
After that, I spent a good chunk of time reading articles, scouting reports, and even some fan forums (those can be a wild ride, let me tell you!) to get a better feel for the players who were left on my list. I wanted to know their strengths, weaknesses, and what kind of clubhouse presence they'd bring.
I jotted down notes on a few guys who seemed like particularly good fits. Think mid-rotation starters who can eat up innings, or maybe a veteran outfielder who can provide some leadership and clutch hitting.
Finally,I got a few names who I think could really help the *'s all about finding the right balance of talent, affordability, and fit. It's gonna be interesting to see what they actually do!
