Wednesday Bird Droppings: Pitchers and catchers, baby!

Good morning, Birdland!

One of the best days of the year has arrived. It can be considered as the first unofficial day of the 2024 baseball season. It is time for pitchers and catchers to report to the Orioles’ spring training facility in Sarasota!

There is admittedly little action on this day. After all, there is no actual team workout planned. The players just need to show up, sign in, and likely go through some HR paperwork like any other job. The highlights from the day tend to include the players simply walking into the team facility with their beverage of choice, most often an iced coffee.
