Open Extended ReactionsBALTIMORE -- The Orioles traded right-handed reliever Bryan Baker to AL East rival Tampa Bay on Thursday in exchange for the 37th overall pick in the 2025 MLB amateur draft, a sign that one of baseball's most disappointing clubs could be sellers at the upcoming trade deadline. But we thought it was a really good return and a good trade for everyone. Hopefully, we can use the pick wisely, bring a lot of value back, and Bryan's going to a good place." Meanwhile, Baltimore will now have four of the first 37 and seven of the first 93 draft picks. "There's just a much bigger opportunity ahead of us, and the draft is a lifeblood for our franchise."
