A frontline starting pitcher is at the top of the Orioles’ Christmas wishlist, but can Santa afford another big gift this winter?

MLB’s winter meetings — where baseball’s movers and shakers gather to conduct business — began Monday, and the Orioles’ first day ended with a news conference with the club’s president of baseball operations. The first question about free agency Elias answered was about impact bats on the free-agent market, and he said the Orioles are “talking to a whole bunch of hitters.”
Can the Orioles afford both a big arm and a big bat?
