The Baltimore Orioles are calling up top pitching prospect Trey Gibson to start against the New York Yankees on Sunday, with manager Craig Albernaz confirming the plan. Gibson, 23, will be opposed by Max Fried as the Orioles deal with multiple pitching injuries, including Trevor Rogers, Dean Kremer and Zach Eflin on the injured list.

Gibson, ranked as Baltimore's No. 3 prospect by MLB.com and Baseball America, has a 4.01 ERA in six Triple-A starts this season. The 6-foot-5 right-handed pitcher was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2023 and has progressed steadily through the minor-league system. palladian.co.za
