William Woods - Returning to action at Low-ALow-A Rome activated Woods (undisclosed) on Monday.

ImpactThe 22-year-old right-hander is ready to make his 2021 full-season debut after an unspecified injury had kept him on the shelf for the entire campaign before he began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League last week. He made just one one-inning starts in the FCL before moving up to Rome, so he'll likely have his pitch counts capped for at least his initial appearances at Low-A.

Conner Greene - Returns to BaltimoreThe Orioles claimed Greene off waivers from the Dodgers on Monday and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

ImpactGreene will return to the Baltimore organization just two weeks after Los Angeles scooped him up off waivers. The right-handed reliever tossed two scoreless innings for the Dodgers, but he was quickly moved off the 40-man roster after Los Angeles upgraded from him with a more battle-tested option in Shane Greene. Though he'll head to Norfolk as he begins his second stint in Baltimore, expect Greene to get a call-up to the big leagues before season's end.

Jahmai Jones - Moves up to big leaguesThe Orioles recalled Jones from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

ImpactBaltimore will shake things up in the infield after losing its 18th straight game Sunday, bringing in Jones and Kelvin Gutierrez from Norfolk while sending Richie Martin to Triple-A and designating Maikel Franco for assignment. Franco's removal from the 40-man roster should open up reps at third base for Ramon Urias and Gutierrez, while Jones will be in the mix for playing time at the keystone if the Orioles elect to shift the hot-hitting Jorge Mateo over to shortstop. Over 289 plate appearances with Norfolk on the season, Jones has slashed .238/.329/.417 with 10 home runs and nine stolen bases.
