HOUSTON (AP) — Touted prospect Dylan Beavers is set to make his major league debut after the Baltimore Orioles selected the outfielder’s contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.
Beavers was set to bat sixth and play right field against the Astros on Saturday night.
“It’s super exciting. It’s what I’ve been working for my entire life,” Beavers said.
Beavers, rated Baltimore’s No. 3 prospect by MLB.com, was the 33rd overall pick by the Orioles in the 2022 amateur draft. The left-hander slugger spent this season at Norfolk, where he hit .304 with 18 homers, 51 RBIs and 23 stolen bases in 94 games.
The 24-year-old found out he was getting called up after Friday’s game in Jacksonville. Beavers said he didn’t sleep much after getting the news, but he did grab a quick nap Saturday upon arriving in Houston on Saturday.
“It’s been exciting seeing a lot of familiar faces and guys I’ve played with during spring or rehab assignments,” Beavers said. “Definitely a little nerves and a little sped up since last night.”
Beavers is expected to boost an outfield that sent center fielder Cedric Mullins to the Mets at the trade deadline. The 6-foot-5, 206-pound Beavers was drafted by Baltimore after three college seasons at California.
The Orioles designated outfielder Greg Allen for assignment to make room for Beavers on the roster.
