Double-A Bowie manager Buck Britton’s one-word hope for Hunter Harvey’s 2019 season matches that of the Orioles’ restocked front office, the organization’s fans and Harvey himself.
“Health,” Britton said Tuesday at the Baysox’s media day. “I think that's the biggest thing. He's got all the talent in the world, man. If we can keep him healthy and get him through a season, get him some consistent outings, I think that kid, he's got a chance to be special.”
Harvey begins 2019 in Bowie, where he made only nine starts with a 5.57 ERA last season while battling shoulder and elbow injuries.
