Orioles' Kyle Lobstein: Traded to Orioles

Lobstein was traded to the Orioles on Wednesday.

Lobstein had been designated for assignment by the Pirates on Tuesday, but is now be a member of the Orioles organization. Baltimore has yet to say if they'll bring Lobstein up to the big club or have him spend some time with Triple-A Norfolk before their season ends on September 5. In exchange for Lobstein, the Orioles sent Zach Phillips to Pittsburgh.
