Thursday Bird Droppings: Spring training is now less than three weeks away

Hello, friends.

There are now 63 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day. In uniform number terms, we have arrived at Kevin Gregg days to go until real baseball returns. Andy MacPhail really wasn’t good at signing free agent relievers. Just 20 days remain until pitchers and catchers report to Sarasota. That’s a much more fun former Oriole number.

You already know that nothing has changed with the Orioles rotation since the last season ended. It is starting to look like a trade for a top-end starting pitcher is not happening, and it has long seemed like if there was a signing instead, that this would be a third-tier starting pitcher.
