The Orioles signed right-handed reliever Hans Crouse to a minor league contract on Tuesday. Crouse, who’s 27 was 4-3 with a 2.84 ERA in 25 games with the Los Angeles Angels in 2024.
He allowed 14 hits, but walked 17 in 25 1/3 innings for the Angels. In 2021, he was 0-2 with a 5.14 ERA in two starts for Philadelphia.
Crouse pitched in only two games for Triple-A Salt Lake City in the Angels’ organization before suffering a torn lat muscle.
