Atlanta and Baltimore are rearranging deck chairs with their end-of-bullpen moves. The Orioles designated George Soriano for assignment back in January and then claimed Jose Suarez off waivers from the Braves. Now, the Orioles have designated Suarez for assignment, so the Braves claimed him back and designated Soriano for assignment. The 26-year-old has a 7.64 ERA in 66 innings over his last two seasons, so we’ll see where he lands next.

Soriano was booted from the roster by the Orioles on Monday, and Atlanta will give the 26-year-old reliever a look this spring — assuming he doesn’t get the boot to clear room on the 40-man roster himself.

The Orioles claimed Soriano off waivers from the Marlins back in November, but he’ll be waived without throwing a pitch for Baltimore. The 26-year-old has a 7.64 ERA in 66 innings over his last two seasons. There’s a good chance he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Soriano, who turns 27 in March, had some success for the Marlins as a rookie in 2023, but he’s struggled with the home run ball since and amassed a 7.64 ERA in 66 innings during his time in the majors the last two seasons. If he sticks on the roster, he’ll compete for a bullpen spot in spring training.

Lombard earns the promotion to the upper minors after tearing the cover off the ball at the outset of the season for High-A Hudson Valley, batting .329/.495/.488 with 10 extra-base hits and 11 steals through 24 games. The 19-year-old top prospect has made tremendous strides since being selected 26th overall in the 2023 MLB Draft. He’s not quite an elite dynasty prospect yet for fantasy purposes, but he’s certainly on that trajectory, especially as he continues to improve at the plate.

Kirby is going to need multiple rehab starts after missing the first month-plus of the 2025 season with shoulder inflammation. The 27-year-old has been a strong fantasy option over the last few years, and he should be back with Seattle — assuming all goes well in those rehab outings — by the end of May.

The Mariners are hopeful that Kirby can make a rehab start shortly, and Dipoto told reporters that the right-handed hurler will need at least two of those outings with a possibility of a third. Assuming no setbacks, the 27-year-old should be back pounding the strike zone for Seattle in the coming weeks, and is obviously a fantasy get in leagues where fellow fantasy managers didn’t have patience/roster room.

As long as he rebounds well from that outing, he’ll be cleared to face live hitters his next time out. Kirby is still going to require a long buildup before he’s ready to join the Mariners’ rotation, but the 27-year-old right-hander is definitely making strides in the right direction.

It’s a big step in his throwing progression as Kirby appears on track to rejoin Seattle’s rotation at some point in late May or early June following a handful of minor league rehab outings. The 27-year-old righty was shut down back in early March with right shoulder inflammation. There should be some additional clarity later this week regarding his return timetable.
