The Orioles announced this morning that theyve designated left-hander and infielder for a signment. The moves open up active roster spots for outfielder and right-hander , both of whom were activated from the injured list in corresponding moves. The clubs 40-man roster now stands at 38. Irvin, 30, is in his second season with the Orioles. The lefty was acquired from the As prior to the 2023 season to help provide stability at the back of Baltimores rotation, and while hes struggled to keep a consistent hold on a spot in the rotation (or even on the roster) during his time with the club he has offered the Orioles a versatile depth option capable of pitching out of the rotation or bullpen as needed. In his two seasons with the club, Irvin has posted a combined 4.68 ERA with a 4.56 FIP in 184 2/3 innings of work while appearing in 49 games, 28 of which were starts. He struggled in his latest stint with the Orioles, surrendering three runs on four hits (two homers) while striking out five in four innings of work spread acro s two outings. Maton, 27, has spent most of the 2024 season at Triple-A for Norfolk and while hes hit quite well at that level with a .273/.429/.455 slash line in 86 games, his track record with the big league club has been far le s impre sive. Maton has made it into just five games with Jalen Lecque Jersey the Orioles as a pinch hitter this year, and has gone hitle s with two strikeouts in those five at-bats. Prior to joining the Orioles, Maton excelled in a bench role for the Phillies with a .253/.330/.434 slash line in 216 plate appearances before being traded to Detroit and struggling in a larger role with the Tigers, for whom he hit just .173/.288/.305 in 93 games. Meanwhile, Kjerstad returns to the active roster to re-enter the clubs outfield mix. The 25-year-old suffered a concu sion when he was struck on the head by a pitch from right-hander on July 12 and previous attempted to return just over a week later. Kjerstad hit just .111/.238/.111 in his 21 trips to the plate after returning, however, and ultimately went back on the IL on August 1 due to the i sue. Overall, Kjerstad sports a strong .261/.370/.420 slash line in 81 trips to the plate at the big league level this year and should provide the club with another quality outfield option behind , , and over the seasons final weeks. Its even po sible that Kjerstad could make an appearance at first base, where he has 46 games of experience in the minor leagues, given deep slump since the start of August and s wrist sprain. As for Webb, the right-hander has emerged as a key piece of Baltimores bullpen since being claimed off waivers from the Angels last August. In 71 2/3 innings of work with the club since then, Webb has posted an excellent 3.14 ERA with 3.35 FIP and struck out 25.4% of opponents. The righty was sidelined by a bout of elbow inflammation in early August but now figures to return to the clubs late inning mix alongside and headed into the postseason. Reggie Miller Jersey
