Rookie right-hander Yefry Ramírez will return to the Orioles rotation, receiving the start in the team’s penultimate game before the All-Star break Saturday against the Texas Rangers.
Ramírez was recalled before Wednesday’s game as part of a corresponding disabled list move — the Orioles placed right-hander Andrew Cashner on the DL with a neck strain — so he was able to return before serving the mandatory 10 days in the minors after being optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.
The Orioles will continue to get a closer look at the 24-year-old Ramírez, who was acquired at last July from the Yankees for international bonus slots, by giving him his fourth major league start.
