Orioles' Terrin Vavra: Not in major-league camp

Vavra (shoulder) is on a throwing progression at the Orioles' minor-league complex and won't begin spring training at major-league camp, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Vavra's target date for game action is mid-March, and it's possible he could be invited to major-league camp at that time. That said, the utility player faces an uphill battle to begin the year with the Orioles given the team's depth. It's more likely he starts at Triple-A Norfolk once he completes his recovery from a right shoulder strain that cost him the second half of 2023.
