Sox Trade Deadline Plans + Surprise Sellers to Watch \ud83d\udc40<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<div class=\"article-content\">\n<p>Following the\u00a0trade of Bryan Baker to the Tampa Bay Rays\u00a0late last week, the impression is that the Baltimore Orioles are getting ready to have an active MLB trade deadline season.<\/p>\n<p>Once the MLB Draft is completed on Monday, the focus of front offices will shift to the deadline at the end of the month.<\/p>\n<p>The Orioles are seemingly preparing their 40-man roster for multiple moves, as evidenced by the team&#8217;s decision to open a spot by\u00a0designating Corbin Martin for assignment on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n<p>If you blinked, you likely missed Martin&#8217;s lone appearance for the Orioles this season.<\/p>\n<p>Pitching an inning and a third against the Texas Rangers on July 2, Martin only gave up 1 hit while striking out 2 during the Orioles&#8217; 6-0 loss. For Martin,\u00a0his appearance with the Orioles\u00a0marked the first time he&#8217;s been back at the Major League level since 2022 with the Arizona Diamondbacks.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Orioles drop another player as trade deadline overhaul heats up<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">With less than five years of service time, Martin wouldn&#8217;t be able to block an outright assignment if he clears waivers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Prior to his work with the Major League team, Martin posted a 5.29 ERA in 32 1\/3 innings pitched at the Triple-A level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">That said, given his abbreviated but successful outing with the Major League team, there could be a team that takes a gamble on him if a need exists in the bullpen.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Taking Martin&#8217;s spot on the 26-man roster for the Orioles is left-hander Grant Wolfram, who was the extra player added to their roster for their\u00a0doubleheader sweep of the New York Mets last week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">In 3 appearances out of the Orioles&#8217; bullpen this season, Wolfram has allowed 2 runs on 4 hits while striking out 5.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">The moves made by the Orioles in the last week are likely only setting the stage for the deadline. Assuming the Orioles sell at the deadline, their in a position to be among the most active teams considering the rental players they have to offer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">After the move on Sunday, the Orioles&#8217; 40-man roster now sits at 39.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Orioles continue to shake things up (or at least shuffle paperwork) with DFA Baltimore Orioles v Texas Rangers | Sam Hodde\/GettyImages &nbsp;
