The Orioles are suddenly within a month of pitchers and catchers reporting to Sarasota despite obvious holes in their roster. With the days counting down, it’s so bad that Jon Meoli’s 25-man roster prediction for the Baltimore Sun consists of a starting rotation that includes Mike Wright, Miguel Castro, and Gabriel Ynoa.
The AAAA trio would be fine if they were all competing for the fifth spot in the rotation, but to all be included before Spring Training and before any injuries? That’s less than ideal. Heck it’s less than bad.
