Making spring debut Chirinos (oblique) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports.

Impact Chirinos will be making his spring and Orioles debuts Monday after he had been eased along to begin camp while coming off a left oblique injury that kept him sidelined for the final week of the 2021 campaign. The 37-year-old has served mainly as a part-time backstop across stops with the Mets, Rangers and Cubs over the past two years, but he appears on track to open the 2022 season as Baltimore's likely No. 1 catcher. Don't expect Chirinos to remain atop the depth chart all season, however, as top prospect Adley Rutschman (triceps) should be ready to take over as the primary option at some point in the late spring or summer.

C Robinson Chirinos agrees to $900,000 deal with Orioles

Catcher Robinson Chirinos and the Baltimore Orioles agreed to a $900,000, one-year contract

MARCH 14, 2022 • Associated Press

Joins Orioles on one-year deal Chirinos (oblique) signed a one-year, $900,000 deal with the Orioles on Saturday, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.

Impact Chirinos hit the injured list with an oblique strain at the tail end of last season, but it should become clear once he reports to camp whether or not the injury is still bothering him. He's seemingly merely keeping the seat warm for Adley Rutschman until the 2019 first-overall pick makes his debut, which is expected to come very early in the season if not on Opening Day. He'll be a high-end backup once Rutschman arrives, as he owns a slightly above-average 102 wRC+ for his career.
