The Post previews the AL East with MLB spring training set to begin: Baltimore Orioles See Also New York Yankees 2024: 91-71 Manager: Brandon Hyde (seventh season) Spring training site: Sarasota, Fla. Key additions: Baltimore has been busy but probably le s aggre sive at the top of the market than its fans hoped. Nice pieces but not needle-pushers in coming off a strong but another injury-filled season Dylan Carlson, Ramon Laureano and Gary Sanchez have been brought in to help the lineup. They have not landed an ace, but and Tomoyuki Sugano intriguing. Andrew Kittredge should help the back of the bullpen, as should returning All-Star Flix Bautista, who mi sed all of last season with Tommy John surgery. Starters Kyle Bradish and Tyler Wells should be midseason pickups coming off elbow procedures. Key lo ses: Gone is their best pitcher ( ) and the hitter with their second-best OPS (Anthony Santander). Danny Coulombe is gone from the bullpen, and deadline rentals Eloy Jimnez and Austin Slater are elsewhere. Longtime rotation member John Means and backup catcher James McCann are free agents. Storylines to watch: The Os have lost an ace without a replacement and spread money around to attempt to compensate for the lo s of Santander. Will they regret not doing more to bolster a remarkable young cast? Grayson Rodriguez developing into a No. 1 would solve a lot of i sues. The Orioles need Grayson Rodriguez to take a step forward in 2025.

Key additions: In elevating its ceiling, Boston acquired a and, if he indeed found something in October, a potential No. 2 in Walker Buehler. Lucas Giolito will make his club debut after injury wiped out his 2024. Patrick Sandoval, recovering from elbow surgery, could join the rotation midseason. The bullpen now is anchored by Aroldis Chapman and features lefties Justin Wilson and Jovani Morn. Former Yankee Carlos Narvez and Blake Sabol should compete for the backup catcher spot. The Red Sox acquired Garrett Crochet to lead their rotation. AP Key lo ses: James Paxton and Nick Pivetta have moved on Jose Siri Jersey from the rotation, and Chris Martin, Luis Garcia, Lucas Sims and Cam Booser have departed. ONeill is a significant lo s, and Danny Jansen is now with Tampa Bay. Top prospect Kyle Teel was lost in the Crochet trade. Storylines to watch: Can Crochet handle the workload and Boston market? Are the Red Sox really not going to upgrade an offense that, on paper at least, has taken a step back this winter? Alex Bregman, with ties to Alex Cora from Houston, lingers in free agency. Tampa Bay Rays 2024: 80-82 Manager: Kevin Cash (11th season) Spring training site: Port Charlotte, Fla. Key additions: , slotting in at shortstop (once healthy, perhaps in May) as the Rays still seek to replace Wander Franco. Jansen brings a strong defensive profile and some power at catcher. Tampa has been aggre sive in bringing in new arms, including Alex Faedo, Joe Boyle and Brandon Eisert. A trio of former Mets prospects in Mike Vasil, Nate Lavender and Eric Orze will try to crack the staff. The Rays added Ha-Seong Kim as their big offseason move. AP Key lo ses: Defensively excellent center fielder Jose Siri and talented but oft-injured starter Jeffrey Springs to the As. The always evolving Rays bullpen has moved on from Colin Poche, Tyler Alexander and Richard Lovelady. Storylines to watch: Only the White Sox scored fewer runs than the Rays last season. Has Tampa Bay done enough to fix that problem? Opting for Jonny DeLuca over Siri should help. Jansen should be an upgrade and Kim plugs a hole. Can the Rays pitching staff which will welcome back ace Shane McClanahan after a second Tommy John surgery carry the load? Toronto Blue Jays 2024: 74-88 Manager: John Schneider (fourth season, third complete) Spring training site: Dunedin, Fla. Key additions: The Jays have swung big and whiffed a few times this winter, but they have come away with a decent haul. Anthony Santander, fresh off a 44-homer campaign, , and Andrs Gimnez and Myles Straw are Gold Glove defenders (and suspect bats) in the infield and outfield, respectively. , and the bullpen looks improved with Jeff Hoffman, Yimi Garcia and Nick Sandlin. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. could be in his last season with the Blue Jays. Jason Szenes / New York Post Key lo ses: Not many. A few trades later, Spencer Horwitz is with the Pirates. The bullpen has gotten a facelift and lost Jordan Romano, Dillon Tate, Ryan Yarbrough and Genesis Cabrera. Storylines to watch: Will Toronto, too often the bridesmaid, swoop in and win the bidding for Alex Bregman? The Jays are facing urgency to win immediately, which would help their chances of locking down walk-year stars Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette. Jonathan Aranda Jersey
