Background
Born on August 11, 2001, in San Luis Obispo, California, Beavers grew up on the state’s Central Coast — a region better known for wine country and tourism than for producing big leaguers, which makes his path to Baltimore all the more notable. A left-handed hitter who throws right, he profiles as a versatile defensive outfielder. He spent several years working his way through Baltimore’s minor league system, refining his swing and his ability to read pitching before getting the call in August 2025.
Professional Career
In his 2025 debut season, Beavers hit .227 with 4 home runs, 14 RBI, 16 runs scored, and a .775 OPS — a solid foundation that showed a workable balance of contact and power for a rookie finding his footing.
During 2026, he continued developing with the Orioles, posting a .239 average, 5 home runs, 26 RBI, 26 runs scored, and 5 stolen bases. His OPS dipped to .684, reflecting the natural adjustments that come as big league pitchers make their own corrections. The stolen base total was an encouraging sign of his speed and baserunning instincts.
At 25, Beavers is still in the early stages of carving out his MLB role — working to sharpen his contact rate while keeping the power and speed that make him an interesting piece for Baltimore’s future.
