The Orioles made one necessary rotation upgrade this week, signing Tomoyuki Sugano to a $13MM deal on Monday. That should be the first of multiple starting pitching acquisitions.
Baltimore addressed that last winter via trade. The O's acquired one year of control over Corbin Burnes, who pitched as well as the O's could've expected, turning in a 2.92 ERA across 32 regular season starts.
Unfortunately, the offense cratered down the stretch and scored a grand total of one run in their two playoff games against the Royals, who swept them by respective 1-0 and 2-1 margins.
Burnes is a free agent, leaving Elias and his staff on the hunt for another top-end arm, as their need for an ace persists.
