Ryan O'Hearn

The Orioles exercised $8 million options Monday on first baseman/outfielder Ryan O'Hearn and right-hander Seranthony Dom nguez along with a $2.2 million option on left-hander Cionel P rez.

O'Hearn enjoyed his second straight solid season on the strong side of a platoon for the Orioles. The 31-year-old slashed .264/.334/.427 with 15 home runs, 60 runs, 59 RBI, and three steals in 142 games. He also cut his strikeout rate to just 14 percent while walking 9.3 percent of the time. By this point, we know who O'Hearn is as a fantasy player. He'll produce a solid batting average with 15 home run power in a good lineup and that will make him valuable in deeper formats when the Orioles are facing lots of right-handed pitching.

The Orioles exercised O'Hearn's $8 million club option for 2025 on Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
