O’s get LHP Rogers from Marlins for Norby, Stowers

44 minutes ago

BALTIMORE — The Orioles swung another trade for a starter, and this time, their rotation mix is getting the left-handed option it had been missing.

Baltimore acquired southpaw Trevor Rogers from Miami, the teams announced on Tuesday, with infield prospect Connor Norby and outfielder Kyle Stowers heading to the Marlins.

TRADE DETAILS
Orioles to receive: LHP Trevor Rogers
Marlins to receive: 2B Connor Norby ( O’s No. 5 prospect per MLB Pipeline), OF Kyle Stowers

Rogers has a 4.53 ERA in 21 starts this year, with 85 strikeouts and a 1.53 WHIP over 105 1/3 innings. The 26-year-old southpaw has a 4.23 ERA in 80 career starts over five big league seasons, although he was limited to four outings in 2023 due to injuries (left biceps strain/right lat strain). Rogers placed second in NL Rookie of the Year balloting in 2021, his only season as an All-Star.

The move comes on the heels of the O’s trade for right-handed starter Zach Eflin with the Rays on Friday. Their rotation lost three starters in June, when Kyle Bradish, John Means and Tyler Wells all underwent season-ending UCL surgeries.

Like Eflin (who is under contract through the end of the 2025 season), Rogers comes with some team control, as he isn’t set to hit free agency until after the ‘26 campaign.

Here’s how Baltimore’s rotation currently stands:

1. RHP Corbin Burnes
2. RHP Grayson Rodriguez
3. RHP Zach Eflin
4. LHP Trevor Rogers
5. RHP Dean Kremer

Norby and Stowers had both been blocked in the Orioles’ deep farm system, with each getting only sporadic time in the Majors this season. Norby (who had been on the 26-man roster) went 6-for-32 with two homers over his first nine MLB games this year, while Stowers slashed .229/.274/.369 with four homers in 67 big league games over the past three seasons.
