  • Orioles Sign Andrew Cashner To 2 Years $16 Million

    Andrew Cashner agrees to two-year deal with Orioles

    The Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Andrew Cashner have agreed to a two-year, $16 million contract, a source told ESPN, confirming multiple reports.

    The deal also includes a vesting option for the 2020 season. The news was first reported by MASN Sports.

    The Orioles have been in search of starting pitchers as Dylan Bundy and Kevin Gausman were the only certainties for the team's rotation.

    Cashner, 31, has pitched seven seasons in the big leagues, most recently in Texas. He was 11-11 with a 3.40 ERA in 28 starts for the Rangers last season after missing most of spring training and the start of the season with soreness in his right bicep.

    Cashner's best season was 2013, when he was 10-9 with a 3.09 ERA for San Diego, where he spent five-and-a-half years before being traded to Miami. He has a 42-64 career record with a 3.80 ERA.

    Cashner, a Texas native who was a first-round draft pick out of TCU in 2008, was drafted 19th overall by the Chicago Cubs in 2008. He made his major league debut two years later with 53 appearances for Chicago. The Cubs traded him to San Diego after the 2011 season, in the deal that sent first baseman Anthony Rizzo to Chicago, and Cashner eventually became a starter for the Padres.
