Between their two veteran additions and the trio of minor league call-ups summoned with expanded rosters Friday, the Orioles hope they’ve added enough to their experienced core to push back into playoff contention.
In new outfielders Michael Bourn and Drew Stubbs, plus catcher Caleb Joseph and pitchers Tyler Wilson and Jayson Aquino, each hopes they have what it takes to put these Orioles over the edge.
“It’s always kind of a whirlwind whenever you get shifted around from one team to the next, but landing here for the month of September and being right in the thick of things is always exciting,” said Stubbs, who the Orioles claimed off waivers from the Texas Rangers.
