Orioles notes: Jonathan Villar settling in as team gets look at shortstop Sunday

Orioles infielder Jonathan Villar has made a solid impression with his bat since last month’s trade from the Milwaukee Brewers, with a pair of home runs over the Orioles’ last three games seeing his power start to show.

Few have questioned Villar’s ability make an offensive impact at any of his prior major league spots, but days like Sunday will be vital to the Orioles finding out where they’d like to deploy him defensively.

Villar began his career as primarily a shortstop, the position he was sent out to Sunday as Tim Beckham got the matinee with Cleveland off.
