----------

Irvin is released

RH Smith gets sent down?

Kjerstad gets sent down?

Livan Soto appears to have options, but you need some kind of IF, does Vavra stay? (at least until Holliday?)

Slater I guess has options so he's down and Pache stays?

Jiminez needs to be on the bench but where does he gets anything other than PH PAs?

Is JIminez here to leave Mayo down? 

Did someone say Holliday may be coming up??

Someone said he was pulled from game in Norfolk, I think.

Someone break the news to NMS that his boy Irvin was DFAd

Did someone say Holliday may be coming up??

I said that Roch pointed it out in his tweet earlier. And they just noted that as well on the broadcast so something to watch for potentially.

I mean Vavra is not long for this roster so makes sense

To be fair, Irvin seemed like a good teammate. He just wasn't a very good pitcher most of the time. He'll probably end up in Norfolk.

Not sure what his salary is but I  see a team claiming him. Even a 2nd division team who just needs someone to eat innings the rest of the year

After a rough early April Irvin was a solid starter for about two months when the Orioles really needed him to be. Be thankful for that and move on.

So I guess when you look at the roster moves (pre-deadline to today)...

RP Burch Smith stayed,

RP GSoto added, Akin sent down

RP Dominguez added, Hunt sent down/Irvin released

OF: Slater added, Pache was DFA

Bat: Eloy Jiminez added, Kjerstad sent down

2B Holliday added, Westburg to IL

MI : Soto added, Norby traded

I guess they don't wanna put emergency SS on Holliday's plate as he re-debuts here.  Otherwise I don't see the point of Livan Soto on the roster.  Once Holliday settles in I hope they use him as the backup SS.  

Kjerstad can return to replace Slater if Slater continues to stink.

Mayo can debut if Jimenez continues to stink or if Urias struggles or if Mountcastle struggles.  I think they've just told us a lot about their evaluation of his defense at 3B, but still a slim chance that they think its ok and are just delaying him for '25 ROY reasons.

Hopefully no more injuries to think about next man up to replace.
