It's obvious that he and others in this Norfolk lineup are ready for regular playing time in the Majors, but Baltimore can only put nine players on the field at one time. Unfortunately for Kjerstad, Colton Cowser is already up with Baltimore and playing sparingly as their 4th outfielder. As of now, it's really hard to predict when Kjerstad will get his shot, but whenever that time comes, he could make an impact in the power department.
