CLEVELAND, Ohio — Craig Albernaz is set to be announced as the next manager of the Baltimore Orioles according to several reports late Sunday night.

Albernaz, 42, has served as associate manager for the Guardians since joining Stephen Vogt’s staff in November 2023. He was rumored to be under consideration as the manager last offseason for the Marlins and White Sox, but returned to Cleveland and helped get the Guardians back to the postseason for the second straight year.

A native of Fall River, Mass., Albernaz makes his home in Philadelphia. The Orioles were one of six major league clubs looking to fill managerial spots after firing Brandon Hyde after a 15-28 start to the season.
