Emmanuel Rivera News: Headed to majors

Baltimore selected Rivera's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

The move comes after the Orioles placed Jordan Westburg (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list and transferred Colton Cowser (thumb) to the 60-day IL. Rivera accepted an assignment to Triple-A after being designated for assignment by the Orioles in late January. He's started his season in Norfolk slashing .308/.370/.338 with one stolen base and 13 RBI in 73 plate appearances.
