- The Orioles have signed 2B Joe Miller (4.5, 4.5) to a two year extension for $31,400,000. He will become a free agent after the 2030 season.
I was originally planning on letting him walk after this year, but given how well he's been playing, how poorly SS Alvaro Gonzalez is playing, and the fact that Miller is a fan favorite, I decided to ink him to a short team deal. I may trade him to a contending team, however, if his production begins to decline, but as for now, he is still an Oriole. |

- Baltimore has scouted 17-year old CF Filippio Spinelli (0.5, 2.5) from Venezuela. He has been assigned to the Baltimore International Complex.
He will likely be a depth piece when his development plays out, but that's exactly what we need since all of the Orioles' minor league affiliations have a losing record. |
