The Orioles’ trade-deadline sell-off continued full steam ahead on Sunday, with the club sending former closer Mychal Givens to the Colorado Rockies for prospects Tyler Nevin and Terrin Vavra and a player to be named later. MLB Network’s Jon Heyman first reported the Givens deal and MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand first reported the return package. It was the Birds’ second deal of the day after trading lefty Tommy Milone to Atlanta for two PTBNLs.
The 30-year-old Givens is in the midst of a career-best season out of the Orioles’ bullpen, albeit in an exceedingly small sample size.
