Thursday Bird Droppings: The Orioles made the biggest winter meetings free agent signing

Hello, friends.

There are now 112 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2024.

A new Oriole is in the fold today! As you likely already know if you were paying attention yesterday, the Orioles signed free agent reliever Craig Kimbrel to a one-year contract that will guarantee him $13 million. There is also a club option for 2025 that could kick the contract up to a total value of two years and $25 million. Check out my article reacting to the news of the signing.

As general manager Mike Elias was happy to tell reporters in his availability after the signing, this turned out to be the biggest free agent signing that went down at this week’s winter meetings.
