Not seeing enough progress from the pair, the Orioles have demoted Brad Bergesen and Chris Tillman to Triple-A Norfolk. "There comes a point where we got to get better there," manager Buck Showalter said. "Some things aren't good enough. We had a pretty good sampling of things, and if we are not pitching and taking the experience and making strides, then we need to go back down to Norfolk and work on it. Sometimes it's just not good enough." Bergesen was 1-6 with a 5.36 ERA in 10 games (nine starts). Tillman was surprised by the move. "Yeah, it's a shock, but they got to do what they got to do," Tillman said. "I've been wearing down the bullpen, and they need the bullpen guys with Matusz coming back. It kind of makes sense. I haven't felt right, I haven't felt like me. I'm going [out] there and thinking about everything, what I need to do to throw this pitch, what I need to do to throw that pitch. I just need to go out there and have fun and do my thing."
