Orioles Predicted to Land $112M Arozarena

The Orioles could pursue free-agent outfielder Randy Arozarena after a 79-win 2026 season exposed a need for more consistent offense; one analyst has predicted he will sign with Baltimore, while projections suggest a four-year deal worth about $112 million. Arozarena hit .281 with 26 home runs and 26 stolen bases for Seattle, and would add an established bat, though the prediction is not a confirmed signing. Separate commentary argues that Baltimore’s more urgent roster need is a proven everyday center fielder, while offseason coverage also points to possible additions for the back end of the starting rotation.
