SARASOTA, Fla. – The Orioles won’t sit still.
They made another roster move early this evening, acquiring right-hander Kaleb Ort from the Phillies in another cash considerations deal.
Ort, who turned 32 earlier this month, made 21 appearances with the Red Sox last year and posted a 6.26 ERA and 1.565 WHIP in 23 innings. He allowed 16 earned runs (19 total) and 27 hits with 24 strikeouts.
The Mariners selected Ort off waivers in October, the Marlins claimed him in December and the Phillies claimed him six days ago.
Now he’s an Oriole and the latest bullpen candidate after making 47 relief appearances over the past three seasons – all with the Red Sox - and his only two major league starts in 2023.
