Orioles' Pedro Araujo: Won't return in 2018

Araujo (elbow) will not pitch again this season, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Manager Buck Showalter said in late August that Araujo was nearing a throwing program but will instead be shut down for the season. It remains unclear if there was a specific setback or if the Orioles are simply remaining cautious with the 25-year-old. Araujo will finish the season with a 7.71 ERA and 1.68 WHIP over 28 innings with Baltimore this season.
