The Orioles promoted Honeycutt from High-A Frederick to Double-A Chesapeake on Sunday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Honeycutt put his speed on display at Frederick with 28 stolen bases and also slugged 10 home runs in 65 games, but he hit just .182 and struck out a 42.8 percent clip over 275 plate appearances. Though he'll move up to Double-A, Honeycutt's poor plate skills cast doubt on his ability to find success in the higher levels of the minors.

Rotowire
Honeycutt was placed on High-A Frederick's 7-day injured list Tuesday due to a left oblique strain, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

The 23-year-old will be on the shelf for at least the next week, but a longer absence wouldn't be surprising given the nature of the injury.

Orioles' Vance Honeycutt: Power surge in Grapefruit League
Rotowire
Honeycutt went 1-for-1 with a solo home run during Wednesday's Grapefruit League against Houston.
The 22-year-old center fielder is taking the Grapefruit League by storm -- he's now gone yard in each of his four at-bats so far this spring. Honeycutt was a first-round pick during the 2024 MLB Draft, and he's looking to put a discouraging 2025 campaign in the rear-view mirror as he continues his development in the minor leagues in 2026. Last season with High-A Aberdeen, Honeycutt batted just .171 with just five homers, 12 doubles and 24 RBI over 374 at-bats.
