EDGE Analysis

In a move that had seemingly been in the works for weeks, the Orioles solidified their outfield Tuesday by inking Fowler to a three-year deal worth $35 million, according to ESPN's Buster Olney. Fowler not only brings solid defense to the Orioles' outfield, but he also gives them a high OBP option for the top of the lineup that is a better base runner than anyone else on Baltimore's roster. Once the deal is finalized, Fowler figures to start Opening Day as the Orioles' right fielder.
