Orioles acquired LHP Boston Bateman, RHPs Tyson Neighbors and Tanner Smith and INFs Brandon Butterworth, Victor Figueroa and Cobb Hightower from the Padres for 1B/DH Ryan O’Hearn and OF Ramon Laureano.
Bateman, a 19-year-old southpaw, was the fourth ranked prospect in the Padres’ system according to MLB Pipeline. He has registered a 4.08 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and a 75/25 K/BB ratio over 68 1/3 innings over 15 starts at Single-A Lake Elsinore in his first professional season. He’s a nice get for the Orioles.
