Assessing the chances for the Orioles' top prospects to make the Opening Day roster
Many of the Orioles' best young players have a path to making the team out of spring training. What would that look like?
No list of spring training questions is complete without the one that owned the No. 5 spot for the entirety of my time covering the Orioles — what will happen with Chris Davis? — so absent that possibility anymore, it feels appropriate to just focus on one.
With the Orioles’ pitchers and catchers reporting this week, the dominant question for many who are following spring training will be to wonder, quite simply, how their favorite prospects can make the team out of camp.
Some have more clear paths than others, while some really don’t have a path at all. But it’s worth exploring considering in a few weeks, the games will start to provide real context into everyone’s standing and likely starting spot in 2023.
