Meanwhile an O’s official did confirm tonight that minor league pitcher Vito Frabizio has been released. The soon to be 21-year-old right-hander from West Islip, New York, was signed by the O’s as a non-drafted free agent in January of 2008.

Last year he went 4-4, 2.96 in 12 starts for Bluefield. This year he reportedly had some arm problems and his velocity was down and he was never assigned to a minor league team before his recent release.

I wrote a story on Vito over this past winter and enjoyed talking to him. I sure wish him well.
