Heston Kjerstad set to get on a baseball field as Orioles announce fall camp roster

The long wait for Orioles top 2020 draft pick Heston Kjerstad to get into organized activities is finally about to be over. The team announced a roster for its fall instructional camp, running from today through November 20 at the team’s spring training complex in Sarasota, and among the 50 players set to appear in the camp is Kjerstad. This will mark his first significant group activity since being drafted last year, with his debut having been delayed this long due to Kjerstad developing myocarditis.

Along with Kjerstad, another 18 players from the current MLB Pipeline Top 30 Orioles prospect list will be in the camp, as well as 17 players from the 2021 draft class.
