Connor Norby News
Baltimore Orioles infield prospect Connor Norby was one of three Baltimore farmhands featured in our Hot Prospects list this week. He makes good contact, showcasing a strong awareness of the entire strike zone. He also has plenty of power for a second baseman, boasting the potential to go yard 30-plus times in a single season. He's slightly above-average in the field, possessing the necessary glovework to play second base long-term. He can also patrol left field in a pinch. Norby logged a hit in every game last week, building a six-game hitting streak. He ultimately went 11-for-28 with three homers, three doubles, 10 RBI, three walks, and nine strikeouts. Ideally, he'll be drawing more walks with fewer strikeouts by the time Baltimore summons him to the majors.
Baltimore Orioles second base prospect Connor Norby went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's Grapefruit League contest versus the Toronto Blue Jays. Norby was the designated hitter on Tuesday, but the second baseman has also seen time all over the infield this spring. The 23-year-old had a late start to spring with side soreness, but has been productive over his 24 at-bats with a healthy .292 batting average and three RBI. Norby spent 2023 in Triple-A Norfolk where he hit .290 with 21 homers, 92 RBI and 10 stolen bases in 138 games. Norby is another impressive prospect that the Orioles have in their franchise, but with no clear opening for him on the diamond, he is likely to open 2024 in Triple-A. Even with an injury to a member of the O's infield, it would be no guarantee he'd be the first man up. Although he offers good power at second base, he may need to be dealt to have value in 2024.
Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that infield prospect Connor Norby (side) won't play in Grapefruit League action on Saturday, but he's expected to get back into the spring training lineup in the next three to four days. There's still time for Norby to get ready for the start of the 2024 season, but even if he impresses when he gets back to game action this spring, he's fully expected to open the year at Triple-A Norfolk. The 23-year-old can play second base and the outfield, although he's not a standout defensively at either position, and he's blocked by a strong major-league roster. Norby's bat is what is intriguing after he hit .290/.359/.483 with an .842 OPS, 21 home runs, 92 RBI and 10 steals in 138 games at Norfolk in 2023. A trade may be his best bet for immediate fantasy value.
