Orioles now have Big Christmas, the Polar Bear and a guy named Holliday on their roster image

It'll be Christmas for the Baltimore Orioles at all times of the year.

They've got the names for it, that's for sure.

Entering the offseason, the Orioles already had one piece of the merry trifecta, Jackson Holliday.

Then they went out and signed Pete Alonso to a big free agent contract. Alonso is known as the Polar Bear.

And on Monday, they claimed Jhonkensy Noel off waivers from the Cleveland Guardians. Noel's nickname? Big Christmas.

Yeah, it's a festive spirit in Baltimore.

The Orioles will have to hope that helps them on the field.

A season ago, Baltimore had high expectations, then were the most underwhelming team in the American League.

This time around, the Orioles are probably in the best division in baseball, but they've also done a lot of work to get better.

These AL East games will certainly be a blast. The Orioles are hoping to have plenty to celebrate.
