Mancini gets his World Series chance; Orioles bringing back coaching staff, adding Asche

Trey Mancini was traded to the Houston Astros on August 1. He is hitless in his last 21 at-bats and hasn't had a hit since October 2. Mankai was benched during the Astros' series in Baltimore late last month. The Orioles beat the Texans in four of seven games during season. BetOnline assigns Manavin 66/1 odds to win World Series MVP with Jose Altuve. It is 18/2 that he will win it. His comeback from colon cancer cost him the 2020 season, but his offensive struggles weren't a big storyline.

The Orioles are bringing back their 2022 coaching staff for next season. Cody Asche will move to the major league staff as director of offensive strategy. Ryan Fuller, Matt Borgschulte, Chris Holt, Darren Holmes, Tim Cossins, Fredi González, José Hernández, Anthony Sanders and Tony Mansolino return. Gonzazlez and Holmes will start their fourth seasons, Holt and Mansolsino start third seasons.
