Orioles acquire Odrisamer Despaigne from Padres for low-level minor leaguer

The Orioles picked up Cuban pitcher Odrisamer Despaigne from the Padres on Thursday, reported Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal. To get him, they only had to give up low-level minor league pitcher Jean Cosme.

The Orioles have acquired a pitcher from the San Diego Padres after all, reports MASN's Roch Kubatko. Who is the pitcher is a great question to ask and one which Ken Rosenthal was the first to answer: the O's will receive the excellently-named Odrisamer Despaigne, a right-handed pitcher, from the Padres in exchange for 19-year-old minor leaguer Jean Cosme.
