SARASOTA, Fla. – Matt Wieters is serving as the designated hitter for tonight’s game against the Tigers at Ed Smith Stadium.

Rule 5 pick Joey Rickard is tied for first in the American League with 23 hits this spring. His six doubles, 14 runs scored and five steals are tied for second.

Catcher Audry Perez no longer as a locker in the clubhouse.

I’m told that Hunter Harvey, who left yesterday’s start at Twin Lakes Park in the third inning with a slight groin strain, felt better this morning when he reported to camp. He didn’t do anything physical, but his condition apparently has improved.

The Orioles obviously are being careful with their top prospect, who hasn’t pitched since 2014 due to a strained right flexor mass and fractured fibula.
