Orioles recall left-hander Nick Raquet from Norfolk, option Weston

Needing a second left-hander for the bullpen, the Orioles recalled Nick Raquet from Triple-A Norfolk and optioned right-hander Cameron Weston to Norfolk after Sunday’s game.

Raquet joins Grant Wolfram as left-handed relief help. In three games earlier this season, Raquet had a 10.13 ERA in three games.

The Orioles also have left-handers Dietrich Enns, who was with the Orioles earlier this season and Andrew Magno at Norfolk, but neither is on the 40-man roster. Josh Walker is on the 40-man roster, but was ineligible for a recall since he hasn’t been at Norfolk for 15 days.

Weston, who was recalled for Wednesday’s game, did not pitch in any of the four games he was active for. Earlier this season, Weston threw a scoreless inning.
