Undoubtedly, the Orioles organization’s player of the year is GUNNAR HENDERSON. The rookie rock star of an infielder will almost certainly win the O’s minor league player of the year, but his 2022 stacks up with any at the big league level as well. The consistency of GUNNAR’s awesomeness makes it easy to forget that he rose from starting for High-A Aberdeen to starting for the Orioles in less than a year. His play since arriving in Baltimore has routinely given Birdland enough reason to question, “Is GUNNAR HENDERSON even better than we thought?”
More than just showcasing his individual brilliance, HENDERSON has been the epitome of the Orioles organization’s ability to take raw talent and develop it into impact MLB players.
