Roansy Contreras has been outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk after clearing waivers following his sixth designation for assignment this offseason. Previously, he was claimed multiple times by different teams, indicating a fluctuating status within the league. Contreras, a former top prospect, showed promise in his rookie season but has faced difficulties in maintaining effectiveness as a pitcher. As the Orioles plan to utilize him as a starter in Norfolk, he aims to regain momentum and adapt after a modest performance in the previous year.
Contreras finally went unclaimed after his sixth and final DFA of the offseason, reflecting the challenges he faced in securing a permanent major league spot.
The Orioles suggested early in camp that Contreras would be built up as a starter, indicating their ongoing faith in his potential despite recent struggles.
