Orioles land C Jake Rogers from Tigers in minor-league swap
Baltimore adds catching depth by trading minor league RHP Zane Barnhart to Detroit, a move prompted in part by Chadwick Tromp's recent mound appearance.
The Detroit Tigers traded catcher Jake Rogers to the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for minor league right-handed pitcher Zane Barnhart. Barnhart will report to Double-A Erie in the Tigers organization. The deal adds catching depth for Baltimore, whose need was highlighted when Chadwick Tromp was used as an emergency pitcher in a recent game. The trade was reported by Detroit Tigers beat reporter Jason Beck.
