The Baltimore Orioles wrap up their three-game series with the Texas Rangers this afternoon as they look to avoid being swept. Ahead of today’s game, the Orioles transferred third baseman Jordan Westburg from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list with a right elbow UCL sprain. They also placed right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin on the 15-day injured list with right elbow discomfort after Eflin left last night’s game in the fourth inning. They selected the contract of Albert Suarez from Triple-A Norfolk.
