Orioles News & Notes: Ryan Mountcastle, Gunnar Henderson, Framber Valdez
The arbitration filing deadline passed last week, and the one real notable move by the Baltimore Orioles was adding a 2027 club option to Ryan Mountcastle’s contract. Host Connor Newcomb breaks down how that changes his trade value, and discusses why Kyle Bradish and the Orioles didn’t come to an agreement.
Then, Connor talks about Gunnar Henderson’s 2025 shoulder injury and the reported trade that would have brought Framber Valdez to Baltimore back in 2017.

If they trade Gunnar I will be pissed, once his shoulder injury has been recovered.
Got to think if they can’t move Mountcastle, Mayo has to be traded, or sent to play in Norfolk.
Great analysis
Listening from Oaxaca, Mexico, and still a die-hard Baltimore Orioles fan.
Thank you Connor for never going the clickbait route. Some other Os podcasters are out of control with it. Is quite annoying.
I also want to thank you Connor for exactly what @drew771 mentioned which is the clickbait that’s out of control on other podcasts. I got sucked on a couple times from certain individuals but since have stopped listening to them. You have never gone down that road, I appreciate your take and your education on your podcast. I don’t miss a show. Thanks again.
