Orioles call up Odrisamer Despaigne from Norfolk

Someone is going to get sent down, DL’d, or DFA’d. But we don't know who yet. Just that Odrisamer is coming.

Odrisamer Despaigne, acquired from the Padres in February, is on his way to join the Orioles from Norfolk. Tides beat writer David Hall reported that Despaigne left Norfolk for Boston during Monday’s Tides game.

The 29-year-old Despaigne last pitched on Wednesday, so he’ll be rested for whatever it is the Orioles want him to do. It’s not immediately clear who will be the corresponding roster move for Despaigne, or even what role the Orioles will use him in.
