Orioles Re-Sign Albert Suárez, Option Cameron Weston to Triple-A

Suárez returns to Baltimore's bullpen on a new big-league contract just one day after electing free agency, with Weston heading to Norfolk.

Nunez walks cost Orioles in 2-1 loss to Blue Jays

Baltimore's rookie reliever Anthony Nunez issued critical walks in the 8th inning, surrendering the game-winning run in a pattern that has emerged through May.

Anthony Nunez, a rookie reliever for the Orioles, walked in the decisive run during the eighth inning of a 2-1 loss to Toronto on May 28. Nunez had earned a high-leverage late-inning role after strong early-season outings but has struggled with control throughout May. The walk-off walk represents a recurring issue that may prompt the Orioles to reconsider his role in close games.
