Complete list of Orioles free agents with final predictions as to who stays and who goes

Brian Burrows of Birds Watcher analyzes the Baltimore Orioles' upcoming free agents following a disappointing season in which the team missed the playoffs for a second straight year. The article evaluates five players nearing free agency: pitchers Trevor Rogers, Chris Bassitt, Andrew Kittredge, and Keegan Akin, along with first baseman Ryan Mountcastle.

Burrows predicts the Orioles are likely to re-sign Kittredge at a reduced rate and retain Akin on a rehab-focused deal following Tommy John surgery. However, the writer expects Rogers to command a high salary elsewhere, while age, injury history, and roster depth make departures likely for Bassitt and Mountcastle.
