Austin Hays Making Progress
6 years agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (thumb) remains in Florida but has advanced to taking practice on the field, and he will begin playing in games later this week. A healthy Hays could be the Orioles starting center fielder eventually. Expect Hays, the team's No. 4 prospect per MLB Pipeline, to play in the minors for a bit before he's even a consideration for the major league roster. But the 23-year-old could help owners out in deep mixed and AL-only leagues if he's playing everyday for the Orioles at some point this year. Injuries have been Hays' biggest enemy so far in his career.
