The Baltimore Orioles finished in their first half of the 2025 MLB season in the cellar of the American League East Division with a 43-52 record, 11.5 games behind the first place Toronto Blue Jays.
The Orioles’ lackluster start has led to speculation of potential trades involving big name players ahead of July 31’s MLB Trade Deadline, including rumors surrounding the team’s lone All-Star representative, first baseman Ryan O’Hearn.
On Wednesday, O’Hearn’s comments on a potential Orioles trade sometime this month were revealed by MLB.com writer Mark Feinsand, giving fans a glimpse into O’Hearn’s thought process headed toward what could be an eventful July.

“I’m trying to be where my feet are, focus on one day at a time with the guys in the locker room in Baltimore,” O’Hearn said according to Feinsand.
“I love them and I want to be with them, but at the same time, I understand it’s a business and this happens every year. Guys get traded around this time, so this is just part of it,” the Orioles first baseman added.
O’Hearn had two at-bats during Tuesday’s MLB All-Star Game and did not reach base, a reminder than he and his Orioles teammates have plenty of improvements to make if they hope to vault themselves back into playoff contention during the second half of the 2025 MLB season.
