Orioles manager Buck Showalter made a small adjustment to his roster for the American League Championship Series.

Left-hander T.J. McFarland has been excluded again, with Showalter choosing to add only one southpaw to his bullpen.

The position players remain the same. Jimmy Paredes and Kelly Johnson stay on the roster.
