The Baltimore Orioles are seeking "multiple veteran starting pitchers and a couple of potentially impactful bats," according to a report.

The Orioles made a jump this season and are looking to make the playoffs in 2023.

Baltimore ranked 30th in baseball with a $43.7 million payroll this past Opening Day.

The Seattle Mariners have contacted the Milwaukee Brewers about a possible trade for Kolten Wong, according to sources.

Wong has one year left on his contract and posted a career-high 118 OPS+ in 2022.

Adam Frazier, who was the primary second baseman for the Mariners this past season, is a free agent. Milwaukee recently picked up the $10 million option on Wong's contract for the 2023 season.

The Toronto Blue Jays have traded Teoscar Hernandez to the Seattle Mariners.

Hernandez was an All-Star in 2021. Last season, Hernandez had an OPS of .807 and 25 home runs in 131 games.

Seattle is expected to send Erik Swanson and Adam Macko to the Jays. 

Brian Cashman said Wednesday that the New York Yankees have been "listening and engaging" on multiple trade possibilities this week.

Specifically, the general manager said clubs have inquired about the Yankees' depth of infielders.

No names were mentioned, but the Yankees nearly traded Gleyber Torres to the Miami Marlins at this year's trade deadline.

Xander Bogaerts has officially opted out of his contract with the Boston Red Sox, allowing him to hit free agency for the first time in his career.

The Red Sox still hold exclusive negotiating rights with Bogaerts through Thursday.

Chaim Bloom reiterated Monday night that retaining Bogaerts would be the club's ideal choice for addressing shortstop.

"We want him here. He makes us better," Bloom said. "We respect his right to exercise [the opt-out] and to explore the market. We want him back and we will stay engaged with him."

The Los Angeles Angels are not trading two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani this offseason, general manager Perry Minasian told a group of reporters Monday.

Ohtani agreed last month to a one-year, $30 million deal with the Angels for the 2023 season, his final year before free agency, but speculation had persisted that he could be dealt this offseason.

"Because he's obviously such a good player, we're not moving him. Ohtani is not getting moved," Minasian said at the general manager meetings in Las Vegas, according to the LA Times. "He'll be here to start the season. I know there's been rumors and all types of things, but he will be part of the club. We love the player and I think the goal is for him to be here for a long time."

The Atlanta Braves have acquired Sam Hilliard from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for right-hander Dylan Spain.

Hilliard hit a career-high 14 homers with a .757 OPS in 238 plate appearances for the Rockies in 2021, but he struggled in 2022.

The Braves took Spain in the 10th round of the 2021 MLB Draft.

The Houston Astros came close to acquiring Willson Contreras at the trade deadline, according to a report.

Houston would have sent Jose Urquidy to Chicago in a straight one-for-one swap, but the Astros never got the green light from ownership.

The Astros turned around and acquired Christian Vazquez from the Boston Red Sox for help at catcher.
