This episode of Locked On Orioles reviews the 2025 seasons and 2026 potential of three Baltimore Orioles relief pitchers. Host Connor Newcomb continues his series analyzing players on the team's 40-man roster. The focus is on pitchers Yaramile Hiraldo, Colin Selby, and José Espada. Newcomb notes all three relievers are currently on the outside looking in for the projected Opening Day bullpen. Each pitcher has shown something that gives them a chance to earn a role. The discussion assesses their performances and paths to making the team. The host specifically examines Yaramile Hiraldo's recent season and his stuff on the mound. He also breaks down Colin Selby's pitching attributes and his fit within the organization. José Espada's potential and what he brings to the competition are evaluated.

It also touches on the overall bullpen landscape and available opportunities. The tone is analytical and forward-looking, typical of a team-specific sports podcast.
