Friday Bird Droppings: Where everyone gets a non-roster invite to spring training
Hello, friends.
There are now 55 days to go until Orioles Opening Day. This number was used most recently by Dan Johnson in 2013, and most memorably by Ramon Hernandez from 2006-08. So go ahead and bat flip a home run that lands in the front row of seats today.
We're also now down to just 11 days until pitchers and catchers report to Sarasota to begin Orioles spring training. We are really running out of time for some starting pitcher to get signed and into camp at the start of workouts. This does not appear to be a concern for Dan Duquette and company, as it has not been a concern for them for the past several seasons. Maybe it should be. Maybe it doesn't matter.
