Pitchers and catchers reported last week to their respective clubs for spring training, and now the full squads have shown up ready to get back into playing shape.
The Baltimore Orioles will be looking to get right back into things, as they will be looking to defend their AL East division crown from last season and will be striving to be serious contenders once again in a much improved American League.
Across the board, there is a lot of talent in the Orioles’ organization including those in the minor leagues. Several starting pitchers and hitting prospects will be looking to impress manager Buck Showalter and company in hopes of earning one of the final spots on Baltimore’s 25-man roster.
Nearly all starting positions have clear-cut locks as to who should be starting, but there are still a few spots here and there that are up for grabs.
What follows is a position-by-position breakdown for the Baltimore Orioles at 2015 spring training.
