Orioles prospect Hunter Harvey to open season with three-inning starts at Double-A Bowie

Hunter Harvey, the Orioles' top pitching prospect, will be managed carefully as he makes his Double-A debut this season after missing nearly three full seasons with injuries.

After taking his candidacy to make the major league roster into the last week of spring training and getting a regular workload in minor league camp once he was sent out, Harvey will start Bowie's fifth game of the season and be limited to three innings for the foreseeable future.

"Three innings a start, and we're going to go for that for a while, until we're told differently," Baysox manager Gary Kendall said.
