With the official moves confirming what we figured might happen - Mark Hendrickson, Jair Jurrjens and Conor Jackson re-assigned to AAA Norfolk - the Orioles have set their roster for Opening Day.

Here's the first version of your 2013 Orioles roster - which, knowing Dan Duquette as we do, will not be the only version of the Orioles roster. Indeed, one of the following names will be shuffled off before the fifth game of the season, as things stand right now, when Chris Tillman returns from the disabled list.

INFIELDERS

Alexi Casilla
Chris Davis
Ryan Flaherty
J.J. Hardy
Manny Machado
Brian Roberts

OUTFIELDERS

Adam Jones
Nick Markakis
Nate McLouth
Steve Pearce (I guess he goes here)
Nolan Reimold

Jason Hammel
Tommy Hunter
Jim Johnson
