Hello, friends.

There are now 112 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2026. There are a few more days to go yet until the winter meetings, which could be a focus for activity. As we’ve already seen this offseason, however, Mike Elias isn’t waiting around if he gets his hands on a signing or trade that he likes.

Unless Elias does something today, the biggest news that touches on Birdland today is last night’s report from Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times that the Rays are signing former Oriole Cedric Mullins to a one-year contract. Other reports indicated that Mullins will make $7 million for the season. That’s less than Mullins made last season, but still not a bad salary number for a guy whose offense took the swan dive that it took after he was traded to the Mets last July.
