Orioles' Taylor Ward: Settles at $12.175 million
Ward agreed to a one-year, $12.175 million contract with the Orioles on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
The 32-year-old will receive a raise of over $4 million in his final year of arbitration eligibility after being traded from the Angels to the Orioles in November. Ward batted just .228 across 157 games in 2025 but set career highs with 36 home runs, 103 RBI and 86 runs.

Orioles' Taylor Ward: Traded to Baltimore
The Angels traded Ward to the Orioles on Tuesday in exchange for Grayson Rodriguez.
Ward enjoyed one of the best seasons of his MLB career in 2025, posting a .792 OPS while setting new career highs with 36 homers, 103 RBI and 86 runs scored over 157 games. With the 31-year-old slugger due to enter free agency next offseason, the Angels will send him to Baltimore, where Ward figures to remain an everyday starter in the outfield while injecting the lineup with a bit of additional power.

Angels' Taylor Ward: Pops homer No. 34
Ward went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a hit-by-pitch in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Rockies.

He's up to 34 long balls this season, nine more than he had in 2024.

Angels' Taylor Ward: Fifth career multi-homer game
Ward went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs in Wednesday's 9-2 loss to Milwaukee.
Wednesday represented Ward's fifth career multi-homer game and his second of the season. The two RBI gave the veteran outfielder the first 100-RBI season of his career, as well. Despite a subpar .225 average, Ward has set career highs across the board with 33 long balls, 31 doubles, 83 runs scored and 72 walks over 551 at-bats to remain a quality fantasy asset in 2025.

Angels' Taylor Ward: Smacks homer in loss
Ward went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Mariners.
Ward had been in his longest power drought of the year -- he entered Saturday 16 games removed from his last homer. He connected in the ninth inning off Matt Brash, but it didn't spark a rally for the Angels. The outfielder is batting a paltry .179 (7-for-39) over 11 games in September. He's now at a .224/.315/.462 slash line with 31 homers, 98 RBI, 81 runs scored, four stolen bases, 31 doubles and two triples across 145 games in 2025. Despite the recent slump, he's still on the cusp of his first 100-RBI campaign.
