The Baltimore Orioles are approaching a pivotal arbitration tender deadline, marking a shift in their offseason strategy under new ownership. This year, the team has 13 arbitration-eligible players, a decrease from last year’s 17, and is expected to collectively earn around $48 million.

Key players like Cedric Mullins and Adley Rutschman are likely to be tendered contracts, while others face uncertainty. The decisions made in the coming weeks will significantly influence the team's future direction.
