The San Diego Padres have signed Bud Norris, who was recently designated and released by the Baltimore Orioles.

The right-hander has a 7.05 ERA over 66 1/3 innings on the year, with 6.8 K/9 against 3.4 BB/9.

Baltimore will pay the balance of his $8.8 million salary, less a pro-rated portion of the league minimum for whatever time he spends on San Diego's active roster.
