NEW YORK (AP) — Baltimore put closer Ryan Helsley on the 15-day injured list Friday because of right elbow inflammation.
A 31-year-old right-hander signed to a $28 million, two-year contract in December, Helsley is perfect in seven saves chances. He is 0-2 with a 2.53 ERA in 12 appearances, striking out 15 and walking seven in 10 2/3 innings.
While with St. Louis, Helsley was sidelined between June 7 and Sept. 1 in 2023 because of a strained right forearm.
Baltimore announced the move, which is retroactive to Wednesday, after manager Craig Albernaz's media availability before a series opener at the New York Yankees.
In other moves, the Orioles recalled left-hander Cade Povich from Triple-A Norfolk to start against the Yankees, selected the contract of right-hander Albert Suárez from the Tides and optioned right-hander Cameron Foster to A Norfolk.
