Orioles interested in signing Randy Wolf
The Baltimore Orioles are reportedly interested in signing left-handed pitcher Randy Wolf. Wolf is a 36-year-old veteran who last pitched for the Milwaukee Brewers. Wolf has been a successful starting pitcher in the past posting a 130-117 winning record in his career.
Wolf has not pitched well this year, he is 3-10 with a 5.69 era. I am surprised at the interest in Wolf, but the Orioles have proved me wrong before. The starting rotation seems to be intact for now so he will best fit in the bullpen.
Orioles need to figure out their playoff roster soon and I doubt Wolf would be in those plans. The Orioles are waiting for Troy Patton to return from the DL and probably just want another lefty in the bullpen.
Who knows, maybe Randy Wolf has enough left in the tank to help the Orioles in their playoff run.
Here are some tweets from Brittany Ghiroli about Wolf.
