The Orioles must set their Opening Day roster by noon today, about 2 ½ hours before they begin working out at Camden Yards in preparation for Thursday afternoon’s game against the Twins.

The only move yesterday was a minor league agreement with reliever Elvis Peguero for 2026 and 2027. He’s injured and out of options.

President of baseball operations Mike Elias still has time to add a player, maybe via waiver claim or trade, who jogs down the orange carpet. Important health updates should be coming later today that could influence the last remaining decisions.

The rotation is set with Trevor Rogers, Kyle Bradish, Shane Baz, Chris Bassitt and Zach Eflin. Manager Craig Albernaz confirmed it on Sunday.

Most mocks probably had Bradish ahead of Rogers. I thought the rest of it would be Baz, Bassitt and Dean Kremer, who found out Saturday in Sarasota that he was going to be optioned.

I’ll say again that it’s probably a short-term assignment for Kremer, until the off-days dry up. The Orioles play 13 days in a row until April 23, and they have a stretch of 16 in a row until getting another break on May 14. So, maybe somewhere in there.

The bullpen has locks and likely inclusions that still leave it an arm or two short.

Ryan Helsley, Tyler Wells, Yennier Cano, Dietrich Enns and Rico Garcia are safe picks, and Grant Wolfram appears to have earned a spot with his scoreless spring.

Keegan Akin’s adductor injury could open the door a little wider for the lefty. That’s one of the pending health updates after Akin underwent an MRI on Monday.

Akin on the team appears to leave one available spot. Akin on the IL leaves two.

Jackson Kowar is out of options and still throwing that upper-90s fastball. It’s a big arm that could get claimed if the Orioles try to sneak him through waivers.

Albert Suárez and Yaramil Hiraldo also remain on the camp roster. Suárez can cover multiple innings, and not just 1 1/3. He’s the guy who comes in if the starter is knocked out early and prevents too much baton passing. He’s stretched out much more than other relievers.

Suárez is on a minor league deal and Hiraldo has options.  

The infield has its locks with Pete Alonso, Ryan Mountcastle, Gunnar Henderson, Coby Mayo and Blaze Alexander. The outfield has four with Taylor Ward, Tyler O’Neill, Colton Cowser and Dylan Beavers if he’s able to avoid the IL.

Beavers is taking batting practice to test the knee. Let’s assume that he’s on the club.

Leody Taveras would be the fifth outfielder, which seems more important now with Beavers’ knee. Let’s assume that he’s on the club.

Two catchers raise the position total to 12, leaving room for a utility infielder. The only way to fit two is if Beavers or Taveras is subtracted. Let’s assume they aren’t subtracted.

Jeremiah Jackson, Bryan Ramos and Weston Wilson began yesterday in the competition for the one roster spot that’s left in this scenario. Ramos was on the 40-man roster and out of options. Jackson has three. Wilson is a non-roster invite.

Ramos will be designated for assignment after failing to make the club, a source confirmed late last night. Baseball reporter Francys Romero reported it first.

The camp roster is at 38 players when the Ramos move becomes official, and it’s really 36 with Félix Bautista and Colin Selby on the 60-day injured list. And it’s really 32 with Jackson Holliday (hamate), Jordan Westburg (elbow), Andrew Kittredge (shoulder) and Luis Vázquez (thumb) also injured.

Vázquez was in the utility competition until Sunday, when a 92 mph cutter busted his right thumb.

Catcher Maverick Handley was reassigned to minor league camp on Monday and catcher Sam Huff is expected to follow him. That’s 31. It becomes 30 if Akin’s adductor, also known as a groin injury, prevents him from pitching. It’s 29 if Heston Kjerstad is optioned or goes on the IL with a strained hamstring.

Reassigning infielder José Barrero makes it 28 and leaves two more cuts, but again, that’s if Akin is on the IL. We don’t know.

Now, it comes down to those last competitions. Having Beavers and Taveras on the roster leaves the Orioles to choose between Jackson and Wilson.

The other cut is in the bullpen.

Of course, Elias could mess with the math by making a late transaction.
