Anthony Nunez

24-Year-Old PitcherRP
Baltimore Orioles AAA
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Nunez was dealt to the Orioles by the Mets in late July as part of the return for Cedric Mullins. The 24-year-old has yet to make his big-league debut, but he's on the cusp of doing so after an impressive 2025 campaign that saw him progress to Triple-A Norfolk. Between three levels, the 6-foot-3 righty produced a 2.21 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 83:25 K:BB across 57 innings. Nunez mixes fives pitches fairly equally including a cutter and pair of mid-90's fastballs, but his slider and changeup have yielded the best results. He'll contend for a spot in the Orioles' bullpen during spring training. Read Past Outlooks
