Orioles Go Outside Organization, Name Craig Albernaz as Their New Manager
Craig Albernaz, known for strong player connections, is set to lead Baltimore's rebuild after a 75-87 season that ended last in the AL East, sources said.
- The Baltimore Orioles are finalizing a deal to hire Craig Albernaz as manager, with reports saying he will lead the club's on-field efforts after the 2025 season.
- Following a 15-28 start, the Orioles fired Brandon Hyde in the middle of May and appointed Tony Mansolino interim manager as they finished 75-87, last in the AL East.
- A former minor-league catcher turned coach, Albernaz has coached with the Rays, Giants, and served as Cleveland's associate manager this year, building strong player connections.
- The hire places immediate expectations on Mike Elias and Albernaz to return the club to contention and win a playoff series, leveraging a high-ceiling roster including Gunnar Henderson, shortstop, and Adley Rutschman, catcher.
- Pitching depth and injuries leave Albernaz with clear challenges as Baltimore faces concerns despite Trevor Rogers' breakout and Kyle Bradish's return, with Grayson Rodriguez sidelined.
