The Baltimore Orioles are making some changes to their coaching staff.
The AL East team will not be bringing back at least three coaches in 2025. That includes co-hitting coach Ryan Fuller, bench coach Fredi González and major league coach José Hernández. Orioles reporter Roch Kubatko of MASN shared the news via social media on Friday. He noted that the Orioles do not comment on personnel matters.

The changes from the Orioles seem to be rooted in how the team’s season ended.
Baltimore’s offense slowed down in the second half of the season, and the team scored just one run in the two-game Wild Card Series loss to the Kansas City Royals.
After the Orioles went 91-71 in the regular season and then two-and-out in the postseason, some changes were to be expected.
Gonzalez had been with the Orioles the past five seasons, while Hernandez was with the organization for 15 years. Fuller had been with Baltimore since 2019.
