Quiet start in Grapefruit League Mullins went 0-for-3 in Monday's Grapefruit League game against Boston and is now 1-for-13 during spring training.
Impact After spending most of last season batting in the bottom part of the order, it remains unclear if the 30-year-old outfielder will be able to hit in the top part of Baltimore's lineup in 2025. Anthony Santander's exit this past offseason opens up an opportunity for Mullins to settle into a favorable lineup spot, but the Orioles may want to see the latter find a rhythm this spring before granting him that chance. Mullins' playing time was also fairly sporadic a year ago, but he's likely to handle the bulk of the reps in center field and offers enough power and speed to be worthy of drafting in most mixed fantasy leagues.

Gets $8.725 million from Baltimore The Orioles and Mullins avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $8.725 million contract Thursday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Impact It was Mullins' final year of arbitration eligibility. The 30-year-old slashed .234/.305/.405 with 18 home runs and 32 stolen bases across 147 games in 2024 and is slated to be the Orioles' primary center fielder again in 2025.

Swipes two bags in win Mullins went 3-for-4 with a double, three runs scored and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 9-7 win over the Yankees.
Impact The veteran center fielder tied his season high in knocks, with his last three-hit effort coming back on Sept. 2. Mullins has turned things around over the final month of the regular season, slashing .270/.357/.500 through 20 games in September with five homers, 12 runs, 13 RBI and a perfect 7-for-7 showing on the basepaths.
SEPTEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Homers in Sunday's loss Mullins went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Tigers.
Impact It was Mullins' first homer since Sept. 10. He's hit safely in three straight games but has otherwise displayed a bit of inconsistency in September, batting .258 (17-for-66) with five homers, five stolen bases and 13 RBI over 18 contests. He's at least been able to secure steady playing time in center field, though he was at the bottom of the order Sunday following the returns of Jordan Westburg and Ramon Urias. Mullins has typically hit between sixth and eighth in the lineup this season.

Returning to lineup Mullins (neck) is batting second and playing center field Saturday against Detroit.
Impact Mullins collided with Austin Slater during Thursday's game and was unavailable for Friday's tilt due to neck stiffness. Mullins will rejoin the starting nine Saturday, slotting into his regular spot in center field. He has a .700 OPS and 30 stolen bases this season.
SEPTEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with neck injury Mullins was unavailable for Friday's game against the Tigers due to neck discomfort, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Impact Mullins' neck issue stems from his collision with Austin Slater during Thursday's contest. The Orioles haven't offered any information regarding the severity of his injury, but the 29-year-old can be considered day-to-day for now. Slater, Colton Cowser and Anthony Santander started across Baltimore's outfield Friday, and the O's would likely roll out the same trio if Mullins is unable to play Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Absent from lineup Mullins is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Detroit.
Impact Mullins has faced southpaws this season, but he'll retreat to the dugout for the start of Friday's game with the Tigers sending left-hander Tyler Holton to the mound. Mullins recorded his 30th steal of the season Thursday against San Francisco, and since the All-Star break, he has a slash line of .253/.374/.452 with 14 stolen bases, eight home runs and 21 RBI across 176 plate appearances. Colton Cowser will start in center field and bat sixth.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Secures 30-steal season Mullins went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Giants.
Impact Mullins is just 3-for-19 over his last five games, but he's picked up three steals in that span. The outfielder's theft Thursday was his 30th of the year, making this the third time in four seasons he's reached that mark. While he's occasionally sat out against southpaws throughout the year, Mullins has picked up steadier playing time while the Orioles are dealing with a number of injuries. He's now at a .228/.300/.400 slash line with 17 home runs, 52 RBI and 62 runs scored through 140 contests.
