Player Outlook
The two things working against Connor Norby for 2024 are his middling defense at second base and in left field and Baltimore's impressive depth. If he were on a team like the White Sox, he could be ticketed for everyday work at second base to start the season and he might even climb to the first or second spot in the lineup. He is a professional hitter and enters his age-23/24 season with a career .295/.362/.498 slash line, 25 home runs, 10 steals and a 21 percent strikeout rate in 147 games at Triple-A. Norby bats right-handed and Oriole Park at Camden Yards had the second-worst overall 2023 Statcast park factor for right-handed batters and was third-worst for righty homers, so the depth chart isn't the only reason he could benefit from a trade. Norby has average speed and could chip in a handful of steals if he is playing every day.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Reassigned to minor-league camp

    Rotowire
    The Orioles reassigned Norby to minor-league camp Friday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports. Norby was limited early on in camp by a side issue but hit well once he got healthy, posting an .806 OPS with one homer. Ultimately, there just isn't space for him on the Orioles' talented roster, so he'll head to Norfolk to play regularly for now.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Set for spring debut Sunday

    Rotowire
    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Norby (side) will make his spring debut as a reserve in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Pirates, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports. Norby has been slowed in camp due to slight left side soreness, but the injury shouldn't be anything that prevents him from being ready to go for the start of Triple-A Norfolk's season in April. Hyde didn't say whether Norby would be deployed in the field or eased back in as a designated hitter Sunday, but the 23-year-old is likely to check into the contest in the later innings.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Nearing game action

    Rotowire
    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Friday that Norby (side) is 3-to-4 days away from his Grapefruit League debut, Matt Weyrich of the Baltimore Sun reports. Norby had previously expressed optimism that he would be ready for game action this weekend, but he's not quite ready for that yet. The 23-year-old could still have time to get ramped up for Opening Day, but he's expected to begin the season back at Triple-A Norfolk.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Expects to play this weekend

    Rotowire
    Norby (side) expects to begin playing in games this weekend, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports. After taking some cuts recently, Norby is now on the verge of making his Grapefruit League debut. The 23-year-old is a well-regarded prospect, though he's not seen as a realistic candidate to break camp with the big-league team. He hit .290/.359/.483 with 21 homers and 10 steals in 138 games with Triple-A Norfolk last season.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Back to hitting

    Rotowire
    Norby (side) is feeling betting and will hit Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Norby should continue to ramp up his workouts if he can avoid any setbacks.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Battling side soreness

    Rotowire
    Norby is dealing with soreness on his side, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports. The Orioles don't seem to consider Norby's injury much of an issue, and he's expected to return within a couple of days. Norby is considered one of the better prospects in Baltimore's farm system, but he's unlikely to break camp with the major-league squad given the Orioles' already-crowded infield.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Back in action

    Rotowire
    Norby has gone 5-for-24 across five games since returning from a lower leg injury. Norby was hurt June 24, but he was back in the lineup four days later. The infield prospect has done fairly well with Triple-A Norfolk this season, slashing .277/.329/.439 with nine home runs, 46 RBI, 57 runs scored and four stolen bases through 75 contests. The 23-year-old likely still needs more time with Norfolk before being in contention for a call-up, especially given the Orioles' already-crowded infield.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Removed with shin injury

    Rotowire
    Norby was removed from Saturday's game for Triple-A Norfolk after fouling a ball off his left shin, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports. Norby is considered day-to-day after being removed due to the injury. The 2021 second-round pick has enjoyed a solid season in Norfolk with a slash of .284/.335/.446 along with eight homers over 289 at-bats coming into Saturday's contest. He has an outside chance of making his major-league debut for Baltimore in 2023.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Reassigned to minor-league camp

    Rotowire
    The Orioles reassigned Norby to minor-league camp Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports. Norby received a brief taste of Triple-A ball last season and made the most of it, slashing .359/.405/.718 through 42 plate appearances. As impressive as his minor-league numbers have been, he will still start the year in Triple-A Norfolk. However, the 22-year-old infielder could very well make his major-league debut at some point during the season if he continues to produce.

    Rotowire
    Norby (hand) was held out of the Double-A Bowie's lineup Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports. Norby exited Saturday's contest with an apparent hand injury after he was hit by a pitch and will be held out for at least one game. The 22-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

    Rotowire
    The Orioles promoted Norby from High-A Aberdeen to Double-A Bowie on Monday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Norby was sidelined for around two and a half weeks after experiencing swelling around one of his eyes.

  • Orioles' Connor Norby: Dealing with swollen eye

    Rotowire
    Norby is expected to remain out of the lineup at High-A Aberdeen for a few days due to swelling around his eye, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports. Assuming Norby is able to make his return to the Aberdeen lineup before the end of the weekend, he should avoid a trip to the 7-day injured list. The 21-year-old infielder is hitting .264 with five home runs and four stolen bases across 104 plate appearances at Aberdeen this season.
