Five Beavers Make MLB Opening Day Rosters
July 23, 2020 | Baseball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Five former Oregon State baseball players have made Major League Baseball Opening Day rosters, which were unveiled by the 30 clubs on Thursday.
Left-handed pitchers Matt Boyd (Detroit Tigers), Jace Fry (Chicago White Sox) and Josh Osich (Boston Red Sox), right-handed pitcher Sam Gaviglio (Toronto Blue Jays) and outfielder Michael Conforto (New York Mets) are all set to open the 2020 season on Friday.
Boyd will be the Tigers' Opening Day starter when Detroit visits Cincinnati. Conforto's Mets are visiting Atlanta, while Gaviglio and the Blue Jays will be in Tampa Bay. Osich and the Red Sox are hosting Baltimore while Fry and the White Sox will be taking on Minnesota in Chicago.
Overall, the Beavers had 11 players at MLB Summer Camps. Five of the six who did not make MLB's 30-man Opening Day rosters will report to their respective clubs' alternate sites. Those Beavers include catchers Adley Rutschman (Baltimore) and Caleb Hamilton (Minnesota), right-handed pitcher Drew Rasmussen (Milwaukee), infielder Nick Madrigal (Chicago White Sox) and outfielder Trevor Larnach (Minnesota). Andrew Susac, meanwhile, will open on the Pittsburgh Pirates' taxi squad. He will travel with the team but will not be on the 30-man active roster.
