A few years ago, the Orioles were a young team that lost regularly, but now they are one of the best teams in the majors. The Angels manager says that his young team will also learn to win.
Angels manager Ron Washington watches his team during a baseball spring training workout in February. After two lopsided losses, Washington says his young team will learn and get better. BALTIMORE — As Ron Washington watched the Baltimore Orioles beat up the Angels over the first two games of this season-opening series, he flashed back to what he’d seen from the Orioles earlier in their rebuilding.
Of course, the Orioles of a few years ago were very different from the current Angels in one significant way. The Orioles had built one of the best farm systems in the majors, thanks in part to the draft. Catcher Adley Rutschman was the No. 1 overall pick. Right-hander Grayson Rodriguez was the No. 11 pick. Shortstop Jackson Holliday, who is expected to be a boost to the team when he comes up this season, was the No. 1 pick.
“We’ve got a lot of youth that’s out there,” Washington said. “And every time they go out there it’s a learning experience. They just have to learn how to be able to deal with the ups and downs and let their assets grow. And all assets will continue to grow. We’re not going to stop working. We’re not going to stop talking baseball. We’re not going to stop getting after baseball. And then somewhere along the line, we’re going to find who we are and what we can do, and then we’ll get consistent.
As he grew up, he said he enjoyed going to the ballpark, especially because it was often mostly empty.
