Orioles fans aren’t expecting to be in the postseason for a while
Most people aren’t believing in this year, and next year’s not looking too good either.
Baltimore Orioles fans are not anticipating a quick return to postseason play following the recent trade deadline moves. General Manager Mike Elias decided to trade away three players, including the promising Adley Rutschman, despite the team being far from the third wild card spot. A recent fan poll revealed that 59% of Orioles supporters believe the team will not make the postseason in either 2025 or 2026.
The team has scored only ten runs in their six August games, raising concerns about their offensive capabilities. According to statistical projections, the Orioles have a mere 10.4% chance of making the postseason, as reported by Baseball Reference and 10.8% by FanGraphs. With just two games remaining this weekend, the team has an opportunity to close the gap, but they will need to significantly improve their run production to achieve that goal.
