Orioles Claim Jake Cave Off Waivers
2 years agoThe Baltimore Orioles claimed outfielder Jake Cave off waivers from the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday and designated pitcher Jake Reed for assignment in a corresponding move. Cave hit .213/.260/.384 with five home runs, 20 RBI, 17 runs scored and two stolen bases in 177 plate appearances and 54 games in his fifth season with the Twins in 2022. He'll likely come into spring training next year trying to compete for a bench role in Baltimore. Reed spent time with the Orioles, New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers this year, posting a combined 7.02 ERA (5.09 FIP), a 1.50 WHIP and 13 strikeouts in just 16 2/3 relief innings.
