Orioles Re-Sign Zach Eflin to $10M Deal Following Back Surgery

Zach Eflin has agreed to a one-year, $10 million contract with the Baltimore Orioles, including a mutual option for 2027, reuniting him with the team. The right-hander spent the 2025 campaign with the Orioles, posting a 5.93 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with 50 strikeouts over 14 starts. Eflin underwent season-ending back surgery in August 2025 and aims to return to full health for 2026 spring training. The re-signing comes as Baltimore continues investing in its roster after a disappointing 2025 season.
