Nick

Vespi

The 29-year-old had been with the Orioles previously and had posted a 3.88 ERA in 53 1/3 innings over the last three seasons. He should provide organizational relief depth for the Phillies.

The 28-year-old southpaw had been designated for assignment last weekend, but he passed through waivers unclaimed and accepted the assignment. Vespi will continue to provide bullpen depth from the left side for the Orioles.

Vespi is off the 40-man roster, and the Orioles are using that room to claim Brooks Riske off waivers from the Reds. Vespi will now hit the waiver wire himself, and if he’s unclaimed he likely will report back to Triple-A Norfolk.

Vespi was optioned as a corresponding move for the Orioles to activate Keegan Akin from the paternity list. He has a 2.92 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and nine strikeouts in 12 1/3 innings out of the bullpen for Baltimore this year.

Selby pitched well for the Orioles, allowing two earned runs in six innings while walking four and striking out four. However, he threw 59 pitches in two games during the series against the Mets, so the Orioles will call up Nick Vespi as a fresh arm for the bullpen.

The Orioles are reshuffling their bullpen after a tough series against the Mets, so they’ll bring Vespi back up. The left-hander has a 3.18 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 10 appearances out of the bullpen for Baltimore this season. Colin Selby was sent to the minors in a corresponding move.

Vespi was the corresponding move with the Orioles activating Dean Kremer from the injured list. Vespi had a 3.18 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 10 appearances out of the bullpen for Baltimore this season.

Vespi gets the call back to the majors with Kyle Bradish heading to the injured list with a UCL sprain in his right elbow. The 28-year-old lefty has made a pair of relief appearances this season for the Orioles.

Vespi was called up on Monday but will be sent back to the minors to make room for Cade Povich, who is starting Thursday’s game. The 28-year-old has thrown two scoreless innings for the Orioles this season and will likely be back in the Baltimore bullpen at some point this season.

The news of Povich’s promotion broke yesterday, and now it’s official. The left-hander is the 9th-ranked prospect in Baltimore’s system according to MLB Pipeline and their 2nd-ranked pitching prospect. He had a 3.18 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and a 75/21 K/BB ratio over 56 2/3 innings in his 11 starts in Triple-A this year. He’ll make his MLB debut against the Blue Jays on Thursday and has a chance to stick in the rotation with John Means out for the season and Dean Kremer working back from an arm injury. The team optioned Nick Vespi to Triple-A in a corresponding move.
