Should the Orioles keep Povich, Kremer and Rogers in the organization for 2025?

We open with a 4 game series in Toronto with no open dates, and the next day (game 5) is the home opener vs Boston.  So they might save someone half decent for the 5th start in the home opener.

But this discussion is so ridiculously premature... let's not even START to talk about it until that first day of pitchers and catchers reporting where they have to fess up and tell us who has been secretly hurt since November, because it would become obvious when guys aren't having throwing sessions the first couple days of camp.

Once we get that annual dose of bad news, THEN we can start thinking about the opening week rotation.

You're a bundle of good thoughts.

Hey, it's happened 2 years in a row:

1st day of training camp 2023:  https://www.masnsports.com/blog/tate-to-begin-season-on-injured-list-bautista-and-hall-also-ailing

1st day of training camp 2024:  https://www.masnsports.com/blog/health-updates-on-bradish-means-henderson-and-basallo

Both times we hadn't heard anything about these injuries even though the team had known for weeks and months.

So yeah, I'll be pretty nervous for that first day of pitchers and catchers in mid February.

There is no doubt in my mind that all three will be in the organization. IMO, Kramer and Povich are locks for the rotation. The wildcard is Roger’s, but he has options.
