The Orioles have made moves with two of their veteran non-roster invitees

On Thursday, the Baltimore Orioles announced moves involving Matt Harvey and Wade LeBlanc, two veteran pitchers the team signed to minor league deals this offseason. The moves include adding Harvey to the team’s 40-man roster and LeBlanc exercising his opt-out.

The Orioles had 39 players on their 40-man roster before adding Harvey this morning, meaning a corresponding move wasn’t necessary to make room for the veteran right-hander.
