The Orioles didn't wait long to fill a void in their starting rotation.
Baltimore announced on Wednesday they have signed free agent Steve Trachsel to a one-year contract with an option. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Trachsel fills a huge need in the rotation after it was reported on Monday that his former Mets teammate, Kris Benson, will require surgery for a partially torn rotator cuff.
