Scouting Report: Layne Henderson
St Louis Cardinals | RP
Overall
Summary
Gunnar Henderson is experiencing a significant early-season slump for the Baltimore Orioles. Through the season's quarter pole, he owns a .211/.269/.421 batting line with a 91 wRC+. Since April 15, his OPS has dropped to just .580, with his batting average dipping into the .190s twice. Henderson recently acknowledged he has "been pretty terrible for about a month now." He missed time with an oblique injury at the start of 2025 and dealt with a shoulder impingement during the winter, which may have residual effects. Despite his work ethic and desire to succeed, Henderson remains under scrutiny as his performance is directly tied to the Orioles' offensive production and team success.
