Orioles Pitcher Tyler Wells Placed on 15-Day Injured List Due to Elbow Inflammation.

Tyler Wells, the Orioles' No. 3 starter, is sidelined with right elbow inflammation, complicating the team's rotation plans ahead of their game against the Minnesota Twins.

  • Tyler Wells was placed on the 15-day injured list retroactive to Saturday, after his last start resulted in a loss with four runs allowed in four innings.
  • The Orioles must now adjust their rotation, potentially relying on their bullpen or calling up a pitcher from Triple-A Norfolk for Wednesday's game.
  • David Banuelos has been selected from Triple-A Norfolk to fill Wells' roster spot, while infielder Livan Soto was designated for assignment.
  • This marks Wells' first injury since shoulder inflammation in September 2022, following a midseason demotion last year.
  • The Orioles have several other pitchers on injury rehabilitation assignments, adding further strain to the team's pitching resources.
