The Opener: Orioles, Rockies, Padres
"The Orioles are poised to officially introduce Craig Albernaz as their new manager later today in a press conference at Camden Yards. Albernaz was serving as the associate manager in Cleveland under Stephen Vogt prior to being hired by Baltimore, and will now take over a club that entered 2025 with high expectations but left the year with a last place finish in the AL East."
"As the Rockies look for a new head of baseball operations, they've hit a bit of a roadblock as the two people previously viewed as finalists for the job (Diamondbacks assistant GM Amiel Sawdaye and Guardians assistant GM Matt Forman) are no longer under consideration for the job. It's unclear exactly where the club will go from here or under what timeline a decision is expected to be made at this point, but one surprise candidate could be Adam Ottavino."
The Orioles will officially introduce Craig Albernaz as their new manager at Camden Yards, with president of baseball operations Mike Elias and owner David Rubenstein joining the 11am local press conference. Albernaz served as associate manager in Cleveland under Stephen Vogt and inherits a club that entered 2025 with high expectations but finished last in the AL East. The Rockies have reset their GM search after removing Amiel Sawdaye and Matt Forman from consideration, and Adam Ottavino has emerged as an unconventional candidate. The Padres remain in the market for a manager while other clubs fill internal roles.
