Don’t look now, but the Orioles have arrived at a point where one can more easily picture the future. Despite losing an entire year of minor league baseball, Orioles prospects have crept close to claiming a spot in Baltimore.
The Orioles’ outfield best fits this description. Cedric Mullins has taken the league by storm this April, and Austin Hays will return this week after suffering a right hamstring injury. DJ Stewart healed up after a spring injury and immediately took a spot in the heart of the order, and Ryan McKenna got his first taste of big league baseball.
