Baltimore Orioles: Making Sense Of The Ryan Mountcastle Conundrum

Last Sunday (March 10th), the Baltimore Orioles announced their second round of spring training cuts. Among the eight players reassigned to the minor league camp was 2015 first round draft pick Ryan Mountcastle. Following the moves on Sunday I penned a piece about my surprise that Mountcastle didn’t stay in camp longer.

A recent social media post by Baltimore Orioles beat reporter Joe Trezza of MLB.com got me thinking more about what the plan is for Mountcastle.

Brandon Hyde said the #Orioles are viewing Ryan Mountcastle as a 3B/1B going forward.
