Rumor has it that the Orioles are considering promoting prospect Denny Bautista to the majors to potentially serve as a right-hander out of their pen. Bautista is 2-4 with a 5.10 ERA and 42/24 K/BB through 42 1/3 innings at Double-A Bowie this season. Bautista’s command is not where it needs to be to succeed in the majors at this time. He'd be better off left in the minors to continue to develop. I hope the rumors prove false.
