Orioles Option Bruce Zimmermann
1 year agoThe Baltimore Orioles optioned left-hander Bruce Zimmermann to Triple-A Norfolk on Friday and recalled left-hander Nick Vespi in a corresponding move. Vespi will give the Orioles some left-handed short relief after Zimmermann provided long relief on the team's road trip. Baltimore will get some reinforcements in the bullpen after Zimmermann threw 61 pitches in three innings of relief on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers. The 28-year-old southpaw has tossed just five innings over two relief appearances for the O's so far this year and has allowed four runs on eight hits (one homer) while walking none and striking out six. Vespi, meanwhile, will be making his 2023 debut when he gets into a game.
