The Orioles already have made spring training plans as they move through the remaining weeks of the 2019 season.

Pitchers and catchers report to spring training in Sarasota, Fla., on Feb. 11, with position players due on Feb. 16. The first full-squad workout is held the following day.

A much shorter drive than Disney.

The spring schedule contains 16 home dates, with the Orioles playing their final game on Sunday, March 22, against the Phillies in Sarasota.

The Orioles will face 10 different teams over the 16-game home schedule, hosting the Red Sox (twice), Ray (twice), Braves (twice), Pirates (twice), Twins (twice), Phillies (twice), Marlins (once), Yankees (once), Blue Jays (once) and Nationals (once).

Sixteen road games are included, with two trips to play the Braves, Phillies, Red Sox, Pirates, Rays and Twins, and one each to face the Nationals, Marlins, Yankees, and Blue Jays.

The Nationals and Marlins require a lengthy trip to the east side of Florida.

The 2020 exhibition season marks the Orioles' 11th spring training at the Ed Smith complex and 10th since extensive renovations. Attendance has exceeded one million fans.
