The Baltimore Orioles are in the middle of a fierce battle atop the American League East and are looking to fend off the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox over the second half of the season en route to a second consecutive division title.

The bullpen has been a strength for the team this year, but recent reports suggest the front office is looking to add to that strength and continue building up the bridge to Yennier Cano and Craig Kimbrel at the end of games.

Jon Heyman of The New York Post shared two potential targets for the Orioles, saying “They are in touch on big relievers, including two All-Stars — ex-Oriole Tanner Scott and even the 103.7 mph-throwing Mason Miller. Miller may not go anywhere, but don’t put it past the Orioles to be able to land both a useful or better starter and reliever,” Heyman wrote.

Heyman added that the Orioles have a more glaring need in the starting rotation, but that won’t stop them from potentially leaning on their farm system depth to bring in a reliever as well.

These are two top-notch relievers to go after, and neither will be cheap as both were All-Stars this season and Miller is one of the most talented young closers in the league and would likely serve as a bullpen anchor for years to come.

Scott has blossomed in Miami since leaving the Orioles after the 2020 season and has a 1.30 ERA this year and would surely be much cheaper than Miller.
