The Baltimore Orioles placed outfielder Dwight Smith Jr. on the 10-day injured list Monday, and manager Brandon Hyde isn't sure if left-hander John Means will be able to start the opener at Boston on Friday night.Baltimore will start the season without outfielder Stevie Wilkerson, who fractured a finger on his left hand in an exhibition game at Philadelphia on Sunday night and will miss “significant time," Hyde said Monday night after the Orioles' 4-2 exhibition loss to Washington.The loss of Wilkerson and Smith's uncertain status leaves the Orioles lacking outfield depth. Smith recently returned to the team after testing positive for the coronavirus and still needs time to get into baseball shape.Hyde said the Orioles have the option of activating Smith “at any time” and that he could still be on the opening day roster.
