How the Orioles Became the Envy of Baseball

Published 2024-02-06
The Orioles were in the depths of Baseball Hell just 2 years ago, but they had the underlying pieces to be the best team in the league in 2023. This is how they pulled off their incredible rebuild.

    Being both an Orioles fan and optimistic about the future is such a foreign feeling. Feels amazing to see all the Os fans start coming out of the woodwork again. Although I'll miss the $4 tickets, seeing Camden Yards full is more than worth it.

    It’s such a great time for all of us Orioles fans. It’s been absolutely amazing watching how much this team has turned around. I cannot wait for this season and hopefully they can win the World Series!

    imagine how much better we would be if we didnt get scammed in machado trade. love ur videos man the baseball stuff and rollercoasters keep it up.
  • This is going to be an exciting team to watch for the next several years. We have a pipeline of talent in the minors, and we finally got a true #1 pitcher and a new ownership group that will hopefully spend some big money in the coming years. So excited to see what comes in the next several seasons. Great time to be a fan of the Orange and black😊

    Been a long time coming. I've been a fan since 1977.

    6:07 I was at this game. I remember how load the remaining crowd was, as Hays had a long at bat fighting against a rain delay. About 2 seconds after Haysie tied it up, the delay happened, and then about an hour later, Rougie hit that little sneaker to under Choi's glove

    It’s like a resurrection. Their 2022 season was a sign that they were gonna be a great team again. Home run productions, I wanted to tell you before I’m a huge MLB fan and that’s why I’m always willing to make comments on your amazing channel

    It also can’t be overlooked how solid Mike Baumann was for the bullpen too and thank god they sold and got Burns
  • Watched every game of 2020-2023 it’s so nice to watch the unsung heroes …. Hanser Alberto , Robinson chirinos to mention but this is something else orioles fans are gonna be spoiled over the next 10 years and I can’t wait

    6:09 I remember Rougned Odor having the worst plate discipline when he was a Yankee, for once he actually lucked out by swinging at that.
  • @vicvsvictor2652
    It started with Adley. Once he got called up the Orioles never stopped winning. Adley Rutschman effect.

    It was a lot of years being the doormat of the division. Now it’s time to see all the team building pay off :) can’t wait to go to Camden Yards this year to watch the Orioles!

    I've been an Oriole fan since 1970. 1971, 1979 and 1983 trips to the World Series the last being another WS win. Not bad to see 4 WS appearances in 13 years. Fast forward to 2001 I watched Cal Ripken circle the stadium to say goodbye. The bad years were hard to watch. I'd peek in at a box score or look at the standing and wince. In 2021 I started hearing the buzz about young players coming up. I felt there was a whole new level of energy and I liked these kids. In 2022 I was feeling these guys may be ready sooner than people think. In 2023 I signed up for MLB TV because I really felt I was going to get a treat. Aside from the 101 wins we had the Mr. Splash section and all the antics in the dugout with sprinklers and homer hoses. I felt younger again. Now they are back at the big boys table in the WS chatter. Go Birds.

    Mike Elias, GM of the current regime, deservedly receives a great deal of credit for the Orioles' success of the last couple of years. Most of all he deserves credit for building up their farm system to be the best in baseball. However, his predecessor, Dan Duquette, drafted or acquired and partially developed a number of major contributors to the Orioles such as Austin Hays, Ryan Mountcastle, Cedric Mullens, Anthony Santander, and Felix Bautista
  • @user-tc4hn2tn8b
    Great scouting and development. Good returns on trades and rebuilding a farm system that desperately needed an overhaul.
  • @p1james726
    They got walked off on my 12th birthday in the 2016 wild card game, then they sucked from that day on, until 2022. They’ll always be my favorite team no matter what!
  • @showtimenick824
    Let's see if their new ownership is willing to spend the money. It's not easy because you have to be smart about how you spend but if you're not spending at all, that's a slap in the face to the fans who pay their hard earned money to see your team play. You're getting that money back with fans coming to your games.

    I'm always rooting for adley, he was born like a city away from where i live
