"Ramos had a solid camp, batting .316 with a home run in 15 games. However, he hasn't hit much over 36 regular season contests, nor is he coming off a good year in the minors."
"Kowar, 29, has draft pedigree as a former supplemental first-round pick. He throws hard but hasn't found much success at the big league level, allowing more than eight earned runs per nine innings."
The Orioles outrighted reliever Jackson Kowar and infielder Bryan Ramos to Triple-A Norfolk after both cleared waivers. They were designated for assignment when the team set its Opening Day roster. Kowar, a former first-round pick, has struggled in the majors, while Ramos had a solid spring but underperformed in the minors last year. The Orioles chose to keep a more versatile player, Jeremiah Jackson, on the roster instead of Kowar or Ramos.
