Is Orioles' Zach Britton the next late-inning reliever to be swapped as trade deadline looms?

Whether Saturday’s one-inning outing marked closer Zach Britton’s final appearance in an Orioles uniform remains to be seen, but it definitely appears these are among the final days for the organization’s longest-tenured player.

The Orioles have reportedly received interesting from several contenders for Britton – the Cubs, Dodgers and Astros among them.

Britton recorded his eighth straight scoreless appearance on Saturday in Toronto, issuing a walk and getting a double-play ball for a scoreless eighth. With the Orioles down 4-1, it wasn’t a very high-leverage situation, but it continued Britton’s progress from a rocky return from the DL.
