Orioles prospect season in review: Hunter Harvey

It feels like Hunter Harvey has been part of the Orioles organization for eternity, and in baseball terms, he pretty much has been. The 24-year-old pitcher was selected in the first round of the 2013 draft, and has spent the last seven seasons bouncing around the minor leagues and appearing in alarmingly few games during that time.

As is always a concern for young pitchers, Harvey has struggled with injuries throughout his development. He missed the 2015 season with elbow tightness and then pitched in only 12.2 innings in 2016 before having Tommy John surgery.
