The Orioles have some choices to make on players without options remaining

With an ever-present supply of players with no minor league options remaining and Rule 5 draftees seemingly always on the roster, Dan Duquette and company have turned roster manipulation into an art form over the past six seasons. Heading into Opening Day 2018, it looks to be no different this time around.

While it’s no guarantee, you can usually count on the Orioles allowing optionless players to fully exhaust their chances to make the team on Opening Day. It may sometimes come at the detriment to some more worthy players who happen to be on minor league deals, but that’s life with baseball contracts.
