By Roch Kubatko
The Orioles have set their 25-man roster for opening day, and it includes outfielders Hyun Soo Kim and Nolan Reimold.
Xavier Avery has been reassigned to minor league camp and will report to Triple-A Norfolk.
Kim wouldn't give his consent to a minor league assignment and the Orioles wouldn't cut him and eat $7 million.
The bullpen currently holds eight pitchers, including Tyler Wilson and Vance Worley. Manager Buck Showalter will announce a fifth starter for the April 10 game against the Rays.
Pitchers Kevin Gausman and Brian Matusz and infielder Jimmy Paredes have been placed on the 15-day disabled list, their assignments backdated to March 25.
