Twins' Chandler Shepherd: Signs minor-league deal with Twins
Shepherd signed a minor-league contract with the Twins on Monday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.
Shepherd's only big-league experience to date came in 19 innings for the Orioles in 2019, where he struggled to a 6.63 ERA and 1.53 WHIP but at least produced a respectable 17:6 K:BB. He failed to make the team's active roster at any point last season and will likely serve as organizational depth this year.

Shepherd cleared waivers and was sent to Baltimore's alternate camp site Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Shepherd will remain in Baltimore's organization after being cast of the team's 40-man roster earlier in the month. He has yet to make an appearance in the majors this season, though he posted a 6.63 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 17:6 K:BB across 19 innings last season.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Pushed off 40-man roster
The Orioles designated Shepherd for assignment Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Shepherd found himself as the odd man out after Baltimore needed to clear spots on the 40-man and active rosters for John Means, who was activated from the COVID-19 injured list ahead of his scheduled start Sunday against the Nationals. The 27-year-old Shepherd didn't see any action with Baltimore this season, but he made five appearances (three starts) for the big club in 2019, posting a 6.63 ERA and 1.53 WHIP in 19 innings.

Shepherd will be a part of the Orioles' 60-man player pool this season.

Shepherd was sent outright to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
Shepherd made five appearances (three starts) for the Orioles during the second half of the season, posting a 6.63 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 17:6 K:BB across 19 innings. He figures to compete for a spot on the team's Opening Day roster in 2020.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Strikes out six in no-decision
Shepherd allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits with one walk and six strikeouts across five innings during a no-decision against the Red Sox on Sunday.
His six strikeouts set a new career high along with his five frames. Because he allowed six runs in his last start, his numbers are elevated in his small sample, but Shepherd held the opposition to under three runs in three of his five starts this season. He finishes 2019 without a decision along with a 6.63 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 17 strikeouts in 19 innings.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Starting season finale
Shepherd will start Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Dan Connolly of The Athletic reports.
He gave up six runs in three innings in his most recent start Sept. 23 in Toronto. Shepherd has thrown either three or four innings in all four of his MLB outings this season, so he is highly unlikely to go deep enough to qualify for the win.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Hit hard in short start
Shepherd gave up six runs on six hits and one walk while striking out two through three innings in a no-decision against the Blue Jays on Monday.
Shepherd allowed three home runs in the first two innings before exiting early after allowing six runs. Shepherd is not guaranteed to make any more starts for the Orioles, especially after this outing. The 27-year-old has a 7.71 ERA with an 11:5 K:BB through four appearances this season (two starts).

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Gets Monday's start
Shepherd is slated to start Monday's game against the Blue Jays.
Shepherd will receive a second turn through the Baltimore rotation despite working only four innings in his first MLB start last week against the Blue Jays, giving up three runs on four hits and a walk during the outing. The Orioles play six games during the final week of the season, but Shepherd isn't certain to make any starts beyond Monday with manager Brandon Hyde seemingly leaning toward finishing the campaign with a six-man rotation.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: To make another start
Shepherd will make another start this season, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
Shepherd wasn't great in his first start of the season Tuesday against Toronto, allowing three runs in four innings, but it was evidently enough for him to earn another look. He's not scheduled to start any of the next five games but will presumably get another look at some point in the final week of the season.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Takes no-decision in first start
Shepherd allowed three runs on four hits with one walk and four strikeouts across four innings during a no-decision against the Blue Jays on Tuesday.
While Shepherd gave up two homers in his first major league start of his career, the game was tied when he left. Then the Orioles' bullpen blew up, leading to a loss for Baltimore. Shepherd hasn't pitched terribly in his small sample this year, but he has given up at least a run in all three of his appearances. He doesn't have a decision with a 4.91 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and nine strikeouts versus four walks in 11 frames. Shepherd will pitch next at home against the Mariners on Sunday.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Entering rotation Tuesday
Shepherd is scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
Shepherd drew 19 starts at the Triple-A level between Norfolk and the Red Sox's affiliate in Pawtucket this season, wrapping up the International League campaign with a 6.18 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 103:39 K:BB in 102 innings. Aside from offering some decent strikeout upside, Shepherd's move into the Baltimore rotation likely won't come with much fantasy intrigue. Whether or not Shepherd receives any additional starts beyond Tuesday likely hinges on his performance versus Toronto.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Joining Orioles on Tuesday
Shepherd will be recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Shepherd has spent most of the season at Triple-A, posting a combined 6.18 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 103:39 K:BB across 102 innings with Norfolk and Pawtucket (Boston's affiliate). He's impressed across his past five starts for the Tides, notching a 1.62 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 30:9 K:BB in 33.1 innings. The right-hander has made one appearance out of the bullpen for the Orioles, allowing one run one five hits and three walks across four innings. Shepherd will likely fill a long-relief role down the stretch, though he could get a start should an opening arise.

He'll serve as a replacement on the active roster and in the Baltimore bullpen for Branden Kline, who was optioned to Norfolk following the first game of Monday's doubleheader. Shepherd was previously called up to the big leagues July 30 but didn't make an appearance during his two-day stint with Baltimore. If he ends up pitching in his upcoming stint in the majors, he'll become the 53rd player to appear in a game for the Orioles this season.

Orioles' Chandler Shepherd: Promotion official
The Orioles officially recalled Shepherd from Triple-A Norfolk ahead of Tuesday's game against the Yankees.
Since he was scheduled to start for Norfolk on Tuesday before being informed he would be promoted, Shepherd should be available to cover multiple innings in relief for the Orioles right away, if needed. The right-hander, who has posted a 7.22 ERA across 81 frames at the Triple-A level this season, has yet to make his MLB debut.
