Despite the lack of a true "ace," the team has a lot of depth at the starting pitching spot and likely could stand pat and be fine there.

The Orioles not only have a tremendous amount of MLB pitching depth, but they also have perhaps the best duo of starting pitching prospect in the minors. Dylan Bundy and Kevin Gausman both have a chance to pitch at the top of the rotation for the Orioles, and both could be big league ready soon. Bundy pitched in the Majors last September, and Gausman moved through the minors quickly.
The Orioles decided not to pursue Kyle Lohse, as they felt like he was redundant depth.
