Orioles Outright Jordyn Adams

By Darragh McDonald | August 19, 2025 at 4:35pm CDT

The Orioles announced that outfielder Jordyn Adams has cleared waivers and been sent outright to Triple-A Norfolk. He had the right to elect free agency but has accepted the assignment. It wasn’t previously reported that Adams had been designated for assignment, so this move drops Baltimore’s 40-man count to 39.

Adams, 25, signed a minor league deal with the Orioles in the offseason and has been on and off the roster this year. He was selected to the 40-man in late May but was designated for assignment and outrighted a few days later. He was added back to the roster August 1st, after the O’s made a number of deadline trades.

Around those transactions, he has appeared in ten big league games but mostly as a pinch runner or defensive replacement. He has only been sent to the plate five times, going hitless in those with two strikeouts.

He has received more playing time in the minors with his speed being his biggest asset. He only has 11 steals this year but has gotten that figure as high as 44, which came back in 2023. He has slashed .252/.332/.405 in 1,272 minor league plate appearances since the start of 2023.
