Orioles Sign Clay Rapada

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | January 25, 2011 at 3:11pm CDT

The Orioles signed Clay Rapada to a minor league deal and invited him to Spring Training, according to Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun (on Twitter).

The 29-year-old appeared in 13 games for the Rangers last year, but hasn't spent considerable time on a big leaugue mound since 2008. The left-hander posted a 4.22 ERA with 6.3 K/9 and 5.9 BB/9 in 21 1/3 innings for the Tigers that year.

The Rangers released Rapada earlier in the month after designating him and Max Ramirez for assignment.

      Ugh. Does someone have to post something so not clever, useless and unoriginal in every comment thread? I guess it’s just the way of the world.

    Rapada is NASTY against lefties. It really looked like he clicked it into gear last year. I saw him in Spring Training and immediately said he’d fit with a rebuilding club that needs a LOOGY, Baltimore will like him.
