Bryan Baker Claimed by Baltimore

Date:  Source: Prospect Collegiate Baseball LLC

Former Dan Bryan Baker made his debut this past MLB season with the Toronto Blue Jays pitching a scoreless inning during a win over the Oakland Athletics. He exhibits a 95 MPH fastball and an appealing Triple-A track record, tossing 41 1/3 innings with the Bisons to a 1.21 ERA and a 28.9% Strike out rate this past year. Baker still has a pair of minor league option years remaining, meaning he can be moved between the majors and minors for the next couple of years, as long as he stays on the 40-man roster. The Baltimore Orioles claimed Baker November 8th bringing their 40-man roster up to 32.
