Mychal Givens has been activated by the Baltimore Orioles from the 15-day injured list after an absence for inflammation in his left knee throughout this season. Pitcher Cole Irvin has been sent to Triple-A to make room for Givens. Last December, Givens signed a one-year contract for $3 million with Baltimore, rejoining the team after having pitched for them between 2015 and 2020. Givens has played for a range of other teams including the Colorado Rockies, Cincinnati Reds, and the Chicago Cubs. Throughout his career he has accumulated 419 appearances, all but one in relief, with a 3.40 ERA and 31 saves, and continues to accumulate experience pitching in a variety of playing environments.
