Competition has dominated the conversation surrounding Baltimore’s camp this spring, and rightfully so. Young players rising to the occasion and battling for rosters spots is exciting, even if the forecast for the big league club is not.
With two weeks to go, a plethora of positions are up for grabs. The left side of the infield has yet to be determined, and there’s at least one outfield spot up for the taking. There are multiple holes in the rotation and bullpen, and we’re not even sure who they’ll all be throwing to yet. There have been surprises like Anthony Santander, strong play from the Rule 5 guys, and a step forward from several young outfielders.
