Orioles Acquire Jack Flaherty from Cardinals Before Trade Deadline to Bolster Rotation

The Baltimore Orioles have acquired right-hander Jack Flaherty from the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Orioles gave up prospects Cesar Prieto, Drew Rom, and Zack Showalter in exchange for Flaherty.
Flaherty has been a key part of the Cardinals' rotation since 2017 but has battled injuries recently.
The first-place Orioles wanted to strengthen their starting pitching for a playoff push.
The struggling Cardinals continued their deadline sell-off, focused on acquiring young talent.
