Baumann, a former middle reliever, had a tumultuous season with five teams, displaying struggles with earned run average and control, and recently signed with the Yakult Swallows.
Despite a stronger performance in 2023 with a 3.76 ERA for the Orioles, Baumann's overall season average of 5.55 reflects significant challenges. His transition to Japan is a pivotal move for his career.
The Marlins' release of Baumann, dropping their roster count to 39, seems strategically timed for the upcoming Rule 5 draft, hinting at potential plans or trades.
