The Baltimore Orioles will have right-hander Trey Gibson make his major league debut Sunday in a start against the New York Yankees, manager Craig Albernaz confirmed Saturday.
The Orioles have a rotation vacancy after left-hander Trevor Rogers went on the injured list this week with an illness. Baltimore also has righty Dean Kremer (quad) on the IL, while fellow right-hander Zach Eflin (Tommy John surgery for his right elbow) is out for the season.
Gibson’s first opportunity to pitch in the major leagues comes after the 23-year-old spent four seasons in the minors. He is 2-2 with a 5.84 ERA in six starts for Triple-A Norfolk this season.
Gibson went undrafted after two seasons at Liberty and signed with the Orioles in 2023. He is the club’s No. 3 overall top prospect, according to MLB Pipeline.
