JACOB WEBB NEWS

Returns from IL The Orioles reinstated Webb (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.

Impact Webb will rejoin the Baltimore bullpen for the first time since early August after completing his recovery from right elbow inflammation. Prior to being activated, Webb made four rehab appearances between Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Norfolk, tossing 3.1 innings while allowing four earned runs on five hits and two walks. He'll likely serve as a lower-leverage or middle-relief option in relief for the Orioles.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for rehab assignment Webb (elbow) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Webb, who has been on the 15-day injured list since Aug. 7 with right elbow inflammation, will likely require at least another rehab appearance after Sunday before the Orioles would feel comfortable activating him. The right-hander has been a key late-inning arm for Baltimore in 2024, notching one win, two saves and 12 holds while compiling a 3.08 ERA and 1.17 WHIP over 49.2 frames.

SEPTEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Beginning assignment soon Manager Brandon Hyde said Tuesday that Webb will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk within the next several days, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Webb landed on the injured list Aug. 7 with elbow inflammation and has been throwing since Aug. 17, and he has now been given the green light to return to a competitive environment. The Orioles skipper didn't say exactly how many appearances Webb will make in the minors before returning to Baltimore's bullpen, though it shouldn't take him very long to build back up.

Resumes throwing Webb (elbow) played catch Saturday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Webb has been on the shelf since Aug. 7 due to elbow inflammation and Saturday appears to be the first time he's played catch since. Initial indications were that Webb wouldn't need to miss much more than the minimum 15 days, but he seems to be at least a week or two away from returning.

Avoids structural damage Testing on Webb's right elbow showed no structural damage Saturday, and his stay on the injured list is expected to be short, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Impact Webb was placed on the injured list Wednesday with inflammation in his throwing elbow and further testing confirmed that he isn't dealing with anything severe. General manager Mike Elias said Saturday that Webb's elbow was "barking" but it seems like Webb could return shortly after the minimum 15 days. The Orioles called up Bryan Baker from Triple-A Norfolk to fill Webb's spot on the active roster.

Impact Webb kept runs off the board in the sixth inning but put a runner on base to start the seventh. Cionel Perez then walked one and gave up two hits as the Marlins rallied for a 6-3 lead, with the decisive run ending up on Webb's line. Prior to Wednesday, Webb had allowed just two hits and two walks while striking out eight over seven scoreless innings in July. The right-hander is at a 2.64 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 44:22 K:BB while adding two saves and 12 holds through 44.1 innings this season.

Takes loss in suspended game Webb (0-3) allowed a run on one walk over two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss in Tuesday's game versus the Cardinals after it resumed Wednesday.

Impact Webb walked Ivan Herrera before exiting the contest in the sixth inning. Keegan Akin proceeded to give up a two-run home run to Nolan Gorman, but Webb was responsible for the go-ahead run. Over seven innings in May, Webb has allowed five runs (three earned) with a 6:9 K:BB. He's still earned some high-leverage looks despite his shaky control, and he's sporting a 2.66 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 21:12 K:BB through 20.1 innings overall. He's added two saves and four holds over 24 appearances, but the bulk of the closing duties are expected to belong to Craig Kimbrel or Yennier Cano.

Impresses with Baltimore Webb pitched to a 3.27 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB over 22 innings after he was claimed off waivers by the Orioles.

Impact Webb also had six holds after joining Baltimore. The 30-year-old right-hander pitched fine with the Angels to begin the year with a 3.98 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 34:20 K:BB across 31.2 innings, but he was able to improve his efficiency while becoming a trusted part of the Orioles' bullpen. They'll look for that to continue in the postseason.

Claimed by Orioles Webb was claimed off waivers by the Orioles on Monday.

Impact Webb, who turns 30 later this month, had a 3.98 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and a 34:20 K:BB in 31.2 innings for the Angels this season before getting designated for assignment over the weekend. He is out of minor-league options, so he will assume a low-leverage role once he is able to join the team in Baltimore for this week's series against the Astros.

Removed from 40-man roster The Angels designated Webb for assignment Saturday.

Impact Webb made it through Friday's appearance without allowing a run, but he walked three batters, and that was apparently the last straw for Los Angeles. The 29-year-old righty has handed out 20 free passes and served up six homers in 31.2 innings in the majors this season. Kenny Rosenberg was added in a corresponding move.

Earns first save Webb picked up the save Thursday against the Rangers. He allowed one walk while striking out one over a scoreless inning.

Impact Webb stepped into a high-leverage situation after Carlos Estevez walked the first three batters of the ninth to load the bases with no outs. However, he managed to escape the jam allowing just one run to pick up his first save of 2023 and the fourth of his career. In 11 appearances (13.1 innings) this season, Webb sports a 2.03 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP to pair with a 2.8 K/BB as one of the Angels' top bullpen arms.

Contract selected from Salt Lake The Angels purchased the contract of Webb from Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday.

Impact Webb signed a minor-league contract with the Angels in November, and while he didn't make the Opening Day roster, the right-hander will now have a chance to work in the middle innings. He's one of several new additions to the Angels' bullpen, and he'll be a mid-innings option for the Halos while with the club.
