Baltimore Orioles Team Preview
The Baltimore Orioles are in yet another year of rebuilding as they have been for the past five seasons. The Orioles are in last place in American League East and have one of the lowest payrolls in all of baseball.
Trending
One bright spot for the team so far has been outfielder Cedric Mullins. Mullins is batting .252 with five home runs and 16 RBIs. Mullins stole 30 bases and hit 30 home runs a season ago.
Shortstop Jorge Mateo and outfielder Anthony Santander are two young MLB players who have shown flashes of their potential. Mateo is one of the fastest players in baseball and also has power at the plate. Santander has hit seven home runs but is only batting .235. These are two players the Orioles can build around as they continue to progress in the big leagues.
Key Player: Cedric Mullins
Cedric Mullins is a key player for the Baltimore Orioles in this matchup at Yankee Stadium. The lefty power bat has the potential to have a big day at the plate with a short right-field fence at Yankee Stadium.
