Slugging prospect Seamus Curran hopeful health leads to bigger things

By Craig FordeMay 9, 2019

Seamus Curran
Seamus Curran cracked five home runs in his first 100 at-bats this season with the Delmarva (Md.) Shorebirds.

For much of Seamus Curran’s career, he has played alongside and against more seasoned players.

Drafted by the Baltimore Orioles out of Agawam (Mass.) High School in 2015, the 6-foot-6-inch slugger began his career at just 17, some 2½ years younger than the average player in the rookie Gulf Coast League.

Now 21, Curran is finding more comfort in being closer in age to the rest of his Class-A Delmarva (Md.) Shorebirds clubhouse.

“This is going to be my Rule 5 year this year and I’m still only 21,” Curran noted. “It’s good to finally play with guys that are kind of my age. Mostly, I was playing with and against guys that were 3-4 years older, just graduating college. It’s good to have guys my age in the locker room.”
