Latches on with Baltimore Webb (elbow) signed a two-year, minor-league contract with the Orioles on Wednesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact The deal includes an invitation to major-league spring training, although Webb will be limited after having Tommy John surgery in late March. Webb has never appeared in the majors but was on the Royals' 40-man roster at one point. He holds a career 6.11 ERA in the minors but has struck out 301 over 268 innings.

Reassigned to minor-league camp The Pirates reassigned Webb to minor-league camp Tuesday.

Impact Webb struggled heavily on the mound last season to the tune of a 12.24 ERA and 2.51 WHIP across 28.2 frames between Double-A and Triple-A. Between his numbers from last season and his inability to limit baserunners during spring training, it's not a surprise to see him in the minors once again.

Inks MiLB deal with Pittsburgh Webb agreed to a minor-league contract with the Pirates on Sunday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact The Royals recently declined to tender the 25-year-old a contract for 2023, but it didn't take long for him to latch on elsewhere via a minor-league deal. Webb received an invite to big-league spring training but is a longshot to make the Opening Day roster.

Denied big-league contract The Royals declined to tender Webb a major-league contract for 2023.

Impact Webb and Jake Brentz were both designated for assignment earlier in the week, and neither were tendered contracts for 2023, making them free agents. Webb was added to the 40-man a year ago almost to the day, but he handed out 20 free passes in 26.1 innings at the Double-A level last season and the Royals decided to move on.

Booted from 40-man Webb was designated for assignment by the Royals on Tuesday.

Impact The 25-year-old righty gave up 34 runs in 28.2 innings across Double-A and Triple-A last season, so it's no surprise to see him fall off the 40-man roster. He walked 24 batters over that span, which was his main undoing.

Yet to make season debut Webb (undisclosed) was placed on the minor-league 7-day injured list April 12 and has yet to pitch this season.

Impact It's unclear what injury Webb is dealing with. The right-hander was added to the Royals' 40-man roster in November to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.

Beginning year at Double-A The Royals optioned Webb to Double-A Northwest Arkansas on March 21.

Impact Kansas City thought enough of Webb to protect him from the Rule 5 draft by adding him to the 40-man roster over the winter, but he's unlikely to reach the big leagues in 2022. The 24-year-old right-hander split the 2021 campaign between Low-A Columbia and High-A Wilmington, producing a 3.94 ERA while striking out 89 batters over 59.1 innings.

'My grandson was drafted by the Royals!': One pitcher's path from Kauffman Stadium groundskeeper to prospect Nathan Webb used to work on the field at Kaufman Stadium. Now, the grandson of a Kaufman Stadium security guard is aiming to play there.

Added to 40-man roster Webb was added to Kansas City's 40-man roster Friday.

Impact Webb was a strikeout machine as a 23-year-old reliever at Low-A and High-A, and the Royals wanted to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. He should spend 2022 pitching in the upper levels of the minors.
