The Orioles Opening Day roster may not have been finalized yet, but there are not many players left who are still in limbo. After the conclusion of the final O’s spring training game on Monday afternoon, manager Brandon Hyde told reporters that several players have been informed that they’ve made the team.
Included among that group are both of the Rule 5 picks, Mac Sceroler and Tyler Wells, as well as infielders Pat Valaika and Ramón Urias. Add to that the pregame announcement that Jorge López and Dean Kremer will round out the five-man rotation in the fourth and fifth spots and the Orioles roster picture became a lot more clear today, even if it hasn’t been set in stone yet.
