After making just one move at this year’s trade deadline, sending RHP Dan Straily to the Philadelphia Phillies for cash considerations, it was safe to assume that the Baltimore Orioles would make at least one move, if not more, after monitoring the influx of movement on the waiver wire, post-trade deadline craziness.
In a constant state of needing fresh arms to get through the final few weeks of the season and hoping to maybe hit on someone who can step up and contribute next year, Mike Elias has not been shy about scouring the waiver wire, even claiming Jose Rondon off waivers from the White Sox last week, despite already having a large handful of middle infielders on the active roster.
