Orioles pitchers have developed their own version of a long-popular home run guessing game to pass the time.

Rutschman got 48 percent of the vote and lost out to Texas' Jonah Heim.

If it feels like Jordan Westburg took forever for a call-up, he did. But the Orioles have shifted from an organization prioritizing development to one prioritizing winning. And as the team tries to stay near the top of the standings, players in the minor leagues are going to feel the squeeze.

With Jordan Westburg finally ascending to the majors, the natural question — who’s next? — has a clear answer: The No. 5 pick in the 2021 draft is ready. And he's gotten here not through a detailed routine, but by learning to laugh at himself along the way.

This move is akin to Gunnar Henderson’s and Adley Rutschman’s promotions — that is, the Orioles don’t promote top prospects unless they’re going to receive regular plate appearances.
