Walter Pennington News: Headed to Baltimore

The Orioles claimed Pennington off waivers from the Rangers on Monday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Pennington hasn't pitched this season, but he isn't dealing with an injury and was instead working on his mechanics with Triple-A Round Rock before the Rangers designated him for assignment last week, per Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. Pennington will occupy a spot on the Orioles' 40-man roster and will report to Triple-A Norfolk to begin his time in the organization.
