Outside of the attention that is given to the Baltimore Orioles at the Major League level with them second in the American League standings and potentially winning back-to-back division titles, people are invested in what is taking place on their farm.
With the best pipeline in all of baseball, many of their top prospects are knocking on the door to get promotions to The Show.
Past track record that has seen Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson turn into bonafide stars and Grayson Rodriguez emerge as one of the top young arms in the sport has people excited about what their next crop can do.
Jordan Westburg earning his first All-Star appearance, Colton Cowser leading in the AL Rookie of the Year race during parts of the season, and Heston Kjerstad flashing limited shades of prominence only adds to the wonderment of what their current Triple-A players can do.
Ranked as the Orioles’ fifth-best prospect, he has routinely been considered one of their top guys since he was taken in the second round of the 2021 draft.
Unlike others in Baltimore’s pipeline, though, he hasn’t gotten very many opportunities to showcase what he can do in the bigs despite performing well in the minors.
That changed this year when Norby was called up for his debut on June 3, but after only four games, he was sent back down to Triple-A where he continues to play well as he waits for another Major League opportunity.
