The ballclub announced its first-ever jersey sponsorship deal with T. Rowe Price on June 10, 2024. A circular dark blue, aqua and white sleeve patch with the investment management firm's bighorn sheep logo debuted in a home game against the Atlanta Braves the following night on June 11.[1][2]
Offseason
editThe Orioles finished the 2023 season as AL East division champions and the top seed in the AL, but were swept by the Texas Rangers in the 2023 American League Division Series.
They will look to improve on their 101–61 record and attempt to win the AL East for the 2nd straight season.
Camden Yards
editOn September 28, 2023, it was reported that the Orioles came to an agreement with the City of Baltimore and the State of Maryland on a 30 year lease agreement with two five year options that can extend the lease into the 2060s.[3] Negotiations on the team's stadium lease were finalized in December 2023, which transferred responsibility for stadium operations and maintenance to the Orioles and reworked the team's rent payment terms, but postponed an agreement on the team's ground lease and redevelopment plans until 2027 following concerns from Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson.[4][5]
Ownership
editOn January 30, 2024, team CEO John Angelos came to an agreement with a group of investors led by Baltimore native David Rubenstein to sell the team for $1.725 billion. The deal was approved by Major League Baseball owners on March 27, 2024.[6]
