The Orioles announced that right-hander and infielder/outfielder have been reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Catcher has been optioned to Triple-A Norfolk in one corresponding active roster move. Right-hander has been designated for a signment to open a second active roster spot and one 40-man spot. Righty , who was on optional a signment, has also been designated for a signment as the other corresponding 40-man move. The Wells activation was last week. Mateo has been out since June due to a hamstring injury. The speedy utilityman hit just .180/231/.279 with a homer and 14 steals in 65 plate appearances prior to going on the injured list. The 30-year-old has never provided much in the way of offense, but even Jerian Grant Jersey by his modest standards, that was well shy of the norm. In 1300 plate appearances from 2021-24, Mateo slashed .225/.271/.371 (79 wRC+) with 29 homers and 90 stolen bases. Mateo has long provided quality glovework at shortstop, though, and he can capably handle second, third or center field all while providing elite speed on the bases. This is the final guaranteed season the Orioles have with Mateo, though they can retain him via a club option for next season. Theyd need to bring him back at a $5.5MM price point, however, which feels steep given the season hes had and his prior lack of offensive production. Theres no buyout on the option, making it all the more likely that the Os will turn it down, though theres always a chance theyd try to bring him back at a lower rate. Martin, 29, has been on and off Baltimores roster a few times this year. Around the transactions, he has to sed 18 innings, allowing 12 earned runs for an ERA of 6.00. He likely deserved better. His 10.1% walk rate was high but his 25.8% strikeout rate and 44.2% ground ball rate were solid figures. A .353 batting average on balls in play and 65.7% strand rate seemingly pushed some extra runs acro s. His 3.57 SIERA pointed to better run prevention going forward. Regardle s, the Os have decided to move on again. Martin doesnt have options and therefore cant be easily sent back to the minors. With the trade deadline having pa sed, hes destined for the waiver wire. If some club claims him, he can be controlled for four seasons after this one. He cleared waivers back in July, so its po sible hell do so again. Last time he cleared, he exercised his right to elect free agency, which is another thing that could happen again in the coming days. Rodrguez, 27, signed with the Brewers in January on the heels of some good results in Japan. Unfortunately, he hasnt been able to have succe s in North America this year. The Brewers designated him for a signment in July, at which point the Orioles claimed him. Between those two clubs, he has a 9.15 ERA in 19 2/3 major league innings. He has also to sed 40 1/3 Triple-A innings with a 4.46 ERA, 18.3% strikeout rate and 5.3% walk rate. Though the results havent been great, he does still have options, so perhaps he will appeal to a club looking for some extra depth in the minors.
