Friday Bird Droppings: Where the bubble players are making their case

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

The Orioles are on an upswing in their young Grapefruit League season, winning their second straight game yesterday in a six-inning contest, 6-3, over the Red Sox in Sarasota. If you were one of the 1,702 fans at Ed Smith Stadium yesterday who paid full admission to watch two-thirds of a regular baseball game, well, sorry about that. I guess that’s spring training for you. There are worse things than getting to enjoy some baseball in 71 degree weather, even an artificially truncated game.

We’re just five games into exhibition play, so it’s way too early to speculate about which roster-bubble players have helped or hurt their cases.
