ARLINGTON, Texas – The Orioles announced their roster moves this afternoon, which includes the decision to option outfielder Henry Urrutia to Triple-A Norfolk.

The Orioles are facing three left-handed starters in this series, which makes the right-handed hitting Alvarez more valuable than Urrutia, who gave up switch-hitting and bats only from the left side.

Still no lineup posted in the visiting clubhouse. Adam Jones has been put through a series of tests after leaving yesterday’s game and experiencing dizziness. He carried two bats out of the clubhouse a few minutes ago and is taking some swings.
