He is out of options.

He is out of options.

He is on a minor league deal.

Right. But he is not a candidate for the Norfolk shuttle without going through waivers. He can come up once. Then waivers are required.

Luckily Bowden barely looks like a MLB quality pitcher so that shouldn't be much of a worry.

Nothing wrong with getting more depth. Shocked I haven't seen any posts yet about this being the best AAA team of all time. Guess they aren't jinxing themselves again. Minus the sarcasm, they do have a hell of a staff.

Norfolk may have a better pitching staff than the Texas Rangers.

Is this our first day Davis replacement? Put him through waivers day two?

No. He was on minor league deal. Already at Norfolk.

According to a post from Steve Melewski from earlier today, Berry is slated to start in Bowie, with Wright, Davies, Wilson and Gamboa in Norfolk's rotation.

But, I'm not sure if McFarland or Drake will get the fifth spot. And, if Gausman gets optioned, two of the previously mentioned players will be headed to the pen.

Drake is not a starter.

Yeah, it's good to hear you say that. How long have we waited for a solid AAA team... with a superb rotation? I wouldn't be surprised if three (maybe even more) of them made MLB contributions before leaving the game... A tribute to the whole organization.

It's good to be an Orioles fan right now.

Former first rounder, Dan likes his change up.

Our Triple-A team is going to look like a major league team.

I sure am glad the O's didn't let Duquette go to Toronto. Imagine how good that team would be if he was up there signing players who most likely will never set foot inside a major league dugout.
