Fantasy Impact
Henderson is expected to return to the Orioles spring training facility on Sunday. It should have no impact on his status for the start of the season.
Henderson stole 30 bases in 2025 and ranked in the 79th percentile in sprint speed. He spent the offseason working out at Tinsley Performance with a focus on increasing his speed.
Fantasy Impact
The training has concentrated on Henderson's first few steps out of the batter's box, specifically maintaining a more horizontal body position rather than becoming too vertical too quickly. Henderson dealt with a shoulder impingement throughout much of 2025 but is now fully healthy heading into the 2026 season.
Gunnar Henderson and the Orioles have agreed on an $8.5 million deal to avoid arbitration.
Fantasy Impact
The Orioles star will avoid arbitration and will be ready to go for the 2026 season. He'll look to improve on his 2025 season now, likely hitting in front of Pete Alonso.
