The Baltimore Orioles may find themselves on the outside looking in at the bidding war that is about to ensue for their free agent ace.
The most recent of those deals went to slugging first baseman Chris Davis, though it did not work out that well for the Orioles in the long run.
From 2016 through 2020, his last season in the Majors, Davis batted only .196/.291/.379 with 92 home runs, 231 RBI, and an 80 OPS+. For Burnes, the top available pitcher, Britton projects a 7-year, $217 million deal to come the ace's way. This year, his first with the Orioles, Burnes pitched to a 2.92 ERA across 194 1/3 innings with 181 strikeouts and a 128 ERA+.
