Richard Bleier Activated, Jimmy Yacabonis Optioned
6 years agoThe Baltimore Orioles did some bullpen shuffling Thursday, activating relief pitcher Richard Bleier from the 10-day injured list and sending pitcher Jimmy Yacabonis to Triple-A Norfolk. Bleier earned his first career save on April 1, but only has a 14.54 ERA in 4 1/3 innings this season. Even if he works his way into more saves, opportunities will be few and far between in Baltimore, so there isn't value to be had here. Yacabonis had a 6.11 ERA in 17 2/3 innings with a mediocre 9-to-7 K-BB ratio and was not a fantasy entity even when in the Majors.
