This season will be remembered for Baltimore’s surprise run, but it will also mark the year that the prospects arrived in Birdland. Adley Rutschman, Gunnar Henderson, DL Hall and Kyle Stowers led an impressive class of rookies making their way to Camden Yards.
Each player added something different to the team. Now, with the season winding down, it’s fair to wonder whether any other prospects could make their major league debut this season.
Henderson forced his way to Baltimore with a dominant season that started at Double-A Bowie. The 21-year-old leapfrogged several infield prospects to become the youngest player in the majors.
