The Orioles’ infield will dominate headlines this spring, as top prospect Jackson Holliday tries to join 2023 Rookie of the Year Gunnar Henderson on the dirt to open the year. Still, there’s plenty of intrigue in the outfield as well, where the Orioles have casually built out an impressive list of outfielders behind their big three.
Anthony Santander, Cedric Mullins and Austin Hays remain pillars of Baltimore’s rebuild, but Colton Cowser and Heston Kjerstad have emerged as the next big thing on grass. The two blue-chip prospects will battle Ryan McKenna and Sam Hilliard for a place on the Opening Day roster, but the Orioles appear to have at least one more outfielder capable of breaking out in 2024.
