The Baltimore Orioles signed right-hander Dalfy Emmanuel to a minor league contract on Monday, Nov. 2.
Emmanuel, 18, is a native of Higuery, Dominican Republic. He has not yet made his major league debut.
A minor league contract doesn't put a player on the 40-man roster, so the signing adds organizational depth without costing Baltimore a roster spot.
Also on Nov. 2, outfielder Heston Kjerstad elected free agency, right-hander Jackson Kowar elected free agency and right-hander Edgar Portes elected free agency.
