These 21 prospects are ones who, even if they don’t debut in 2021, are going to be strong indicators of the direction the Orioles are heading.
Catcher Adley Rutschman
Any season that doesn’t include Rutschman spending more time in the high minors than the low minors will be a disappointment for Orioles fans who want the team’s top prospect in the majors sooner rather than later. That won’t likely happen this year, but the more Rutschman can accomplish this summer, the closer he’ll be to the big leagues for 2022.
Left-hander DL Hall
Hall has electric stuff from the left side, with a high-90s fastball topping his four-pitch mix.
