I'd roll the dice and bring up the big arm.

Yes it's a risk.

Are you talking about Sedlock or someone else?

Scott.

Sedlock doesn't have that big an arm.

His strikeouts have been way down recently and I don't think putting him on the 40 would cause any long term issues.

What about Yacabonis?

I'd rather see if Scott can be a difference maker.

If I am Yacabonis, I am wondering who Tyler Wilson has paid off to keep getting the callup.

It's a matter of what role is needed.  With our starters barely averaging 5.1 IP, long relievers have been at a premium.

 O'day is a one inning, later inning guy so Yacabonis hopefully should be next up.

How soon can he get here?

We are in trouble. This team better start pounding the ball like last June.

The O'Day deal is looking to be an awful one in the next two seasons.

Ton of injuries for every team..Kiermaier maybe out for the year.Yankees have injuries to Chapman,Ellsbury and Bird.As Bordick says Duquette is so good at giving the Orioles deep depth. This should not bother the Orioles. In Duquette we trust.

It wouldn't have hurt so much in past seasons, when the O's had more depth in their bullpen, but the O's had only 4 decent relievers to start this season with, and now they are down to two.  They've run through a panoply of options for middle relief and none of them have worked out.  They need to make a trade if they want to contend this season.

This club is dead. O'Day out, Britton out, Castillo out, Machado struggling and now out, Jones hobbled. A schedule from hell. There's only so much you can overcome.

That is why you don't resign them when they are over 30.

Also why you should have paid for Andrew Miller instead who is younger and has an elite bullpen arm.  Of course that all depends on if Miller wanted to sign back with the team.

Yeah who possibly could have foreseen that signing a 32 yo reliever who had pitched many innings to a four year extension was a really bad idea. This team has been buried by the DD lifetime achievement award contracts (Hardy, O'day, Davis, and Trumbo)

I reported this post. Because it makes me feel afraid.
