Bruce Zimmermann is scheduled to be the latest Orioles prospect to make his debut in the second game of Thursday’s doubleheader as the club plans to add him to the roster between games and make him the third rookie in their starting rotation.
The first set of roster moves made ahead of the 4:35 p.m. first game were more for pitching depth purposes behind starter Dean Kremer, with Branden Kline recalled from the Bowie site and Evan Phillips added as the 29th man for the doubleheader. The Orioles also designated for assignment right-hander Asher Wojciechowski, who was dropped from the rotation to make room for Kremer.
