Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson doesn't seem too far off returning to the lineup as he rehabs an injury.

Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson will begin the season on the 10-day injured list, general manager Mike Elias told reporters Sunday morning. Henderson, 23, has been battling an intercostal strain this spring training; he's taken just six at-bats in exhibition play, with one hit to his name.

Gunnar Henderson is gearing up for what could be a defining season in his young MLB career. Coming off a breakout year in 2024, the Orioles' shortstop is striking a pose on the cover of "MLB The Show" alongside two other breakout stars, Paul Skenes and Elly De La Cruz.
