The operation will be a debridement surgery meant to remove bone, thus correcting an impingement Rodriguez has felt since spring training.

As Ryan O’Hearn and Ramón Laureano grasped the sudden change in their situation — a late Thursday trade that sent the two Orioles players to the Padres — they stayed close to one another.

Rodriguez may undergo season-ending elbow surgery to solve a recurring impingement issue, general manager Mike Elias said Friday.

Here’s how The Baltimore Banner’s Orioles writers grade the work done ahead of the deadline.

The Orioles sent cash in the trade and received six prospects.

In return, the Tigers are trading left-hander Micah Ashman to Baltimore.

Baltimore drafted Mullins in the 13th round out of Campbell University in 2015, and he debuted in 2018.

“A huge part of the turnaround,” interim manager Tony Mansolino said. “Just to be a part of the turnaround, you don’t ever lose that label. That means something.”

The Orioles expanded beyond just their impending free agents by agreeing to a deal that will send infielder Ramón Urías to the Houston Astros, a source confirmed.

The returning player, one source confirmed, is right-hander Juaron Watts-Brown.

“It’s incredibly disappointing. He’s going to be out for a while," interim manager Tony Mansolino said. "It’s a really important part of the Baltimore Orioles. Very unfortunate set of circumstances.”

The previous mark was a 17-0 win in 1969.

Per a source, the Orioles will receive right-handers Wellington Aracena and Cameron Foster.

Laureano hit three home runs during a four-game series in Cleveland and could be a coveted trade chip for the Orioles.

Before the game, interim manager Tony Mansolino said Baltimore wouldn’t have a set replacement at closer; instead, the Orioles will rely on matchup-based decisions in late-game scenarios.
