Heston Kjerstad continuing to turn heads with raw power with Baltimore Orioles.
OAKLAND, Calif. — Every coach the "Silent J" has come across has said it, Former Arkansas Razorback and Baltimore Orioles outfielder Heston Kjerstad can hit a baseball a long way. First, it was coach Dave Van Horn and now it's Orioles manager Brandon Hyde.
The Orioles system is crowded with the likes of Austin Hays, Cedric Mullins, Kjerstad and Anthony Santander all vying for outfield playing time. Ryan O'Hearn and Adley Rutchman also split time at designated hitter. Kyle Stowers, who has produced in his own right, is still stuck in AAA. As Arkansas looks for their next feared slugger, their most recent one is taking his college success and translating it into MLB power and forcing his way onto the 26-man roster. Just in time for the Orioles, who are stuck in a division race with the New York Yankees and came into the day just two games ahead of New York in the AL East.
