"The 24-year-old was originally signed as a shortstop by San Diego in 2019. After a pair of uninspiring seasons at the lowest rungs of the minors, he converted to pitching. The Mets signed Nunez in 2024. He tossed 10 innings between the Complex league and Single-A that season. High-A hitters were no match for Nunez in 2025, as he dominated with a 0.63 ERA and a 46.2% strikeout rate over 14 1/3 innings."
"The Orioles announced a series of roster tweaks on Thursday. Baltimore has selected right-hander Anthony Nunez to their 40-man roster. Right-hander Shawn Dubin and outfielders Dylan Carlson and Daniel Johnson have been outrighted off the roster. Left-hander Josh Walker and right-hander Carson Ragsdale were designated for assignment. Baltimore claimed outfielder off waivers from the Astros, while left-hander Jose Castillo was claimed by the Mets."
"The team also exercised its club option on right-hander Andrew Kittredge, whom they acquired from the Cubs earlier this week. The Orioles declined their club option on utilityman Jorge Mateo, who is now a free agent. They also announced the signing of outfielder Leody Taveras, a deal that had been reported yesterday. The litany of moves brought Baltimore's 40-man roster to 40 players."
Baltimore completed a series of roster moves that filled its 40-man roster. The club selected right-hander Anthony Nunez and claimed an outfielder off Astros waivers while Jose Castillo was claimed by the Mets. Shawn Dubin and outfielders Dylan Carlson and Daniel Johnson were outrighted, and Josh Walker and Carson Ragsdale were designated for assignment. The Orioles exercised Andrew Kittredge’s club option, declined Jorge Mateo’s option making him a free agent, and signed outfielder Leody Taveras. Nunez converted from shortstop to pitcher and produced dominant minor-league numbers across levels before advancing to Triple-A Norfolk.
