Rays trade Shane Baz to OriolesThis trade-filled Friday has continued. Just minutes after trading Brandon Lowe out of the American League East , the Tampa Bay Rays made a second move, trading starting pitcher Shane Baz to the Baltimore Orioles. In return, the Rays received Caden Bodine , Slater de Brun, Austin Overn, Micheal Forret, and the Orioles’ Competitive Balance Round A pick. It’s a lot to give up for an oft-injured pitcher who didn’t have the best 2025 season. The right-handed pitcher ranks one spot behind Bodine on the Orioles top prospect list according to MLB Pipeline .
