The 2024 Major League Baseball season officially came to an end when the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees in the World Series.

As the excitement of the postseason wraps up, the tides will switch to the offseason, where there appears to be plenty of excitement to come.

Many MLB offseasons include players switching teams as they become free agents.

Arguably the biggest name who will be a free agent heading toward the 2025 season is Yankees star Juan Soto.

One MLB analyst recently named an under-the-radar team that could land Soto this offseason.

“I could see the [Baltimore] Orioles being one of these secretive teams to get Soto,” Chris Russo said, via MLB Network.

It appears the most likely team to sign Soto would be the Yankees, but Russo names the Orioles as a dark horse team that could offer the necessary amount of money.

Soto will most likely require a large investment to get him signed to a contract, and Russo explains that the Orioles owner has plenty of money to spend.

If they are able to sign Soto, he would not only take the place of free agent Anthony Santander, but he would also be in the same division as the Yankees.

The Orioles ultimately had a disappointing end to their season as they were swept by the Kansas City Royals in the wild-card round.

With the Orioles one of many teams perhaps looking to sign Soto, it will be interesting to see how things play out this offseason.
