Remember that time when the Orioles were just going to send pitching prospect Hunter Harvey to Double-A Bowie to start the season and leave him alone for a while so that he could build up his innings towards a starter’s workload? That was a fun time. It’s gone now. Facing a short-term bullpen need, the Orioles have recalled Harvey prior to Monday’s game against the Blue Jays.
Harvey had been scheduled to start for Bowie on Monday night anyway, and the team was only going to have him pitch three innings in that start.
