Gophers in the Pros: 2020 Round-Up (Terrin Vavra | SS, Baltimore Orioles)

On Aug. 30, the Colorado Rockies traded Vavra to Baltimore as part of a package to acquire right-handed relief pitcher Mychal Givens at the MLB Trade Deadline. Vavra, who won the Single-A South-Atlantic League MVP in 2019, was coming off a stellar season in which he slashed .318/.409/.489 with ten home runs, 32 doubles, 79 runs scored, 52 RBI and 18 stolen bases. Since his trade to the Orioles, Vavra has been working on his defensive versatility, taking reps in centerfield in addition to the middle infield. Vavra now joins a select number of other Baltimore prospects at Instructional League camp, where he will be able to get some live game reps after missing out on a 2020 season.
