Souza went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Sunday's 8-8 spring tie with the Orioles

EDGE Analysis

The power-hitting outfielder, mired in a spring slump coming in to Sunday, launched a one-out fifth-inning T.J. McFarland offering out of the yard for his first homer of the exhibition slate. Despite the power display, Souza went hitless in his other three at-bats, and is now tallying a .150 average over 20 plate appearances. The 26-year-old continues to have the inside track on the starting right-field role, but with backup Brandon Guyer having a red-hot spring, Souza's grasp on the spot could grow increasingly tenuous.
