Orioles placed OF Aneury Tavarez on outright waivers

[Chuck]

"The Orioles selected Tavarez from the Red Sox using the No. 12 pick in December's Rule 5 draft. Assuming he manages to pass through waivers unclaimed, he will remain in the Orioles' organization -- though not as part of the active 40-man roster. The soon-to-be 25-year-old outfielder slashed a marvelous .335/.379/.506 with seven homers, 47 RBI and 18 steals over the course of 385 at-bats with Double-A Portland in 2016."

Clean peanut for Eppler?

He swiped 8 bags this spring with a .292 average and a homer.

Worth a look

He's a Rule V player.  He'd have to stay in the majors all year if claimed.

[Second Base]

We're pretty set in terms of OF depth in the majors right now. It's a travesty Ben Revere doesn't have a starting spot.

Yeah you're either bumping Marte or Revere for Tavarez at this point.

It's good that the Angels will pass. It means that there are more talented players than him in a position to be potentially bumped. It was not too long ago that the Angels would pick up anything and be improved.
