Gunnar Henderson is coming off the IL to make season debut

Who cares:

  • My Orioles group chat
  • The guy in the AL-only Dynasty fantasy league who drafted Gunnar in 2019
  • Governor Wes Moore

Why do you care:

  • The Orioles are in a free fall spanning two seasons and need a spark
  • It’s April, we’re reaching here

Gunnar Henderson will make his season debut tonight against the Royals after missing the team’s first 7 games on the IL with an oblique injury. Batting leadoff, Henderson adds to an Orioles line up desperately searching for a spark (and a soul?).

Billionaire private-equity magnate/Declaration of Independence owner David Rubinstein purchased the Orioles from The Angelos family last year giving Birds fans hope of sunnier, higher spending days to come. The first offseason with Daddy Warbucks, however, felt insignificant compared the team’s rivals in the deep pocketed AL East.

Keep the crushes flowing, Governor. We need you now more than ever.
