Leody Taveras Leads Baltimore Orioles Outfielders in Innings Played During 2026 Season

Leody Taveras led Baltimore Orioles outfielders in innings played, starting 115 games and finishing the 2026 season with 0.0 bWAR. Signed to a one-year, $2 million deal, he seized everyday playing time in center field after Tyler O’Neill landed on the injured list, batting .288/.397/.455 by April's end. Although his production dipped to a .591 OPS from May onward amid outfield injuries and roster chaos, he provided crucial depth before his contract concluded.
