Highlights and lowlights from the Orioles' intrasquad game

The emergence of fast-rising minor league prospect Trey Mancini could prompt the Orioles to find out whether fellow first base prospect Christian Walker can play a corner outfield position, but Showalter said that won’t happen during training camp.

Showalter said that if Walker moves to the outfield, it likely would be during the regular season at Triple-A Norfolk.
