Left-hander Zach Britton and infielder Cesar Izturis will join the Orioles in New York, which means the 25-man roster will undergo another transformation. Britton is slated to pitch the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Yankees, so he'll be recalled over the weekend. He was 0-2 with a 5.40 ERA in three games with Double-A Bowie, with 14 hits, two walks, 15 strikeouts and three home runs allowed in 11 2/3 innings. Izturis has been on an injury rehab assignment at Bowie after undergoing elbow surgery. He's also been bothered by a sore knee. Izturis was 3-for-15 with a double, a run scored and three strikeouts with the Baysox. Britton tweeted the following a few minutes ago: "NY bound w/ izzy!" Sounds official to me. If the Orioles activate Izturis from the disabled list, they could option infielder Blake Davis to Triple-A Norfolk. It depends how many backup middle infielders manager Buck Showalter wants to keep on his bench. Down on the farm, Mike Flacco hit a two-run homer today, his first with Single-A Frederick.
