Orioles to non-tender reliever Jacob Webb; decisions loom ahead of deadline Jacob Webb, who posted a 3.09 ERA in 78 2/3 innings in two seasons with the Orioles, will become a free agent.
NOVEMBER 22 • BALTIMORESUN.COM
Non-tendered by Baltimore The Orioles non-tendered Webb on Friday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Impact Webb spent most of the 2024 regular season in the majors and posted a 3.02 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 56.2 innings, though he did pitch with Triple-A Norfolk in September while on rehab assignment due to right elbow inflammation. His ERA and WHIP numbers were his best since the 2019 season with Atlanta, but the 31-year-old will now enter free agency and should draw interest from teams looking to bolster its bullpen with right-handed pitching.

Picks up win Webb (2-5) allowed two hits and struck out one over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the win over the Yankees on Wednesday.
Impact A rare inefficient start from Zach Eflin saw Webb take over to get the final out of the fifth inning with the Orioles leading 8-3. They held on the rest of the way, giving Webb his first victory since June 1. He's been a little shaky with two runs allowed over 4.2 innings since he returned from a six-week absence due to an elbow injury. Webb is now at a 3.15 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 55:27 K:BB while adding two saves, 13 holds and a blown save over a career-high 54.1 innings this season.
SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
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.
SEPTEMBER 15 • 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.
AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE
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.
AUGUST 17 • ROTOWIRE
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.

AUGUST 7 • ROTOWIRE
Takes loss versus Marlins Webb (1-5) allowed a run on a hit and a walk over one inning, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Marlins.
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.
