The Orioles still have some housekeeping to do before the 25-man roster is finalized, but baseball operations chief Dan Duquette all but ruled out any more surprise additions before Opening Day.
Duquette and manager Buck Showalter met with reporters before Friday's exhibition finale against a Norfolk Tides lineup that illustrated the organization's improved second-level depth. Both expressed confidence that they have created a solid major league roster with maximum minor league flexibility.
It appears that the only thing remaining to do other than putting three players on the disabled list will be moving Rule 5 outfielder Aneury Tavares off the 40-man roster to make room for reserve outfielder Craig Gentry.
