Orioles Acquire Andrew Kittredge From the Cubs

The Baltimore Orioles acquired right-handed reliever Andrew Kittredge from the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations, according to Jesse Rogers of ESPN. Kittredge will return to Baltimore after opening the 2025 season with the O's. The 35-year-old veteran was traded from Baltimore to Chicago at the trade deadline over the summer. Now that he's back with the Orioles, the team will likely pick up his $9 million option for the 2026 season. Kittredge had a 3.45 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, and 32:8 K:BB in 31 1/3 relief innings in Baltimore before he was traded to the Cubbies, where he posted a 3.32 ERA, 0.83 WHIP, five saves, 32 strikeouts, and only three walks in 21 2/3 relief innings in the regular season. Right now, Kittredge could be the favorite for closing duties for the O's next season, although that could easily change after more moves are made this offseason.

Andrew Kittredge Named Game 2 Opener

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge has been named the opener for Game 2 of the wild-card series against the San Diego Padres on Wednesday. Clearly, the Cubs don't have much faith in their starting rotation right now. Shota Imanaga was expected to start, but now might come in to piggyback off Kittredge. It's worth noting that Kittredge did pitch during Tuesday's victory. He tossed a scoreless inning with one strikeout in the 3-1 victory. However, Kittredge only threw 14 pitches, so he should be able to give the Cubs an inning or two for Game 2. It'll be interesting to see how manager Craig Counsell manages his pitching staff without Cade Horton (ribs) for this Wild Card series.

Andrew Kittredge Notches Fifth Save on Sunday

Chicago Cubs reliever Andrew Kittredge threw a scoreless ninth inning on Sunday to pick up his fifth save of the year in a 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Kittredge was perfect aside from a two-out walk, as the right-hander struck out the other three hitters he faced - including 44-home run man Junior Caminero. Notably, Kittredge has picked up all three of the Cubs' saves since they placed closer Daniel Palencia (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Sept. 8. As long as Palencia's out, Kittredge could be manager Craig Counsell's go-to choice for saves. The 35-year-old has pitched to a solid 3.31 ERA with a .98 WHIP, 56 strikeouts, and 11 walks in 49 innings this season.

Andrew Kittredge Secures Save on Wednesday

Chicago Cubs reliever Andrew Kittredge collected his third save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday. The right-hander retired the side in order and struck out one during an 11-pitch ninth inning to log the Cubs' first save since closer Daniel Palencia (shoulder) went on the 15-day injured list on Monday. Both Kittredge and fellow righty Brad Keller, who pitched a scoreless eighth and racked up his 24th hold, are strong candidates to receive save opportunities in Palencia's absence. Acquired from Baltimore in July, Kittredge has recorded a 3.45 ERA with a 1.00 WHIP, 52 strikeouts, and 10 walks in 47 innings this season.

Andrew Kittredge to Continue "Getting High-Leverage Work"

The Athletic's Sahadev Sharma writes that along with Chicago Cubs right-hander Brad Keller, right-hander Andrew Kittredge will "continue to get high-leverage work from the right side." Daniel Palencia (shoulder), who had been operating as the closer, blew a save on Sunday and got hurt before being put on the injured list on Monday. Kittredge has a 3.57 ERA with a 33.3% strikeout rate and 3.7% walk rate in 14 innings since joining the Cubs this year. Instead of going with a traditional closer with Palencia out, Sharma says that manager Craig Counsell will "likely go inning by inning." In addition to Keller and Kittredge from the right side, Counsell has lefties Caleb Thielbar and Drew Pomeranz, who have both been dominant. While the 35-year-old Kittredge could see some save chances down the stretch, Keller is still probably the best waiver-wire pickup for fantasy managers.

Andrew Kittredge Earns Save on Sunday

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge was tasked with holding a one-run lead against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. On Saturday, manager Craig Counsell said Daniel Palencia was unavailable because he was feeling under the weather. That was likely the case again as Kittredge was asked to close out this game. He tossed a perfect ninth inning to earn himself his first save of the season. Since joining the Cubs, Kittredge has thrown a scoreless outing in six of his seven appearances. If Palencia misses an extended period of time, Kittredge and Brad Keller figure to be the favorites to record saves in Chicago.

Andrew Kittredge Traded to the Cubs

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Andrew Kittredge has been traded to the Cubs to fortify Chicago's bullpen for the stretch run. Kittredge pitched for the Cubs' rivals in St. Louis in 2024 before joining the Orioles this year. He got a late start to the season after a knee injury but has been very effective lately, allowing just one run over 7 2/3 innings in his last nine appearances. He has an impressive 41.3% chase rate, mostly due to his slider, and his 25.2% strikeout rate makes him an effective option when he comes into tight spots with runners on base. The 35-year-old righty is a solid pickup for the Cubs' bullpen and has a 2026 club option as well. Chicago had interest in Kittredge as a free agent before he signed with the Orioles, and will now add him to a solid bullpen as they look to claim the NL Central in what should be a great race to the finish with the Brewers.

Orioles Activate Andrew Kittredge

Per the team, the Baltimore Orioles have activated pitcher Andrew Kittredge (knee) from the 15-day injured list. To make room for him on the roster, pitcher Chayce McDermott was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk. The 35-year-old underwent arthroscopic knee surgery back in spring training, but he's finally ready to rejoin the big-league club. Kittredge pitched well over his last five appearances with the Tides in Triple-A, yielding four hits and two walks while striking out four across five innings. It may take him some time to work back up to it, but the veteran should slot back into his role as a late-inning, high-leverage bullpen piece for Baltimore.

Andrew Kittredge To Begin Rehab Assignment On Sunday

Baltimore Orioles right-handed reliever Andrew Kittredge (knee) will start a minor-league rehab assignment on Sunday at High-A Aberdeen. Kittredge is ready to pitch in minor-league games after having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee back in spring training. Because of the long layoff, the Orioles probably will not be in any rush to bring the 35-year-old back off the injured list. However, barring a setback with his surgically-repaired knee, Kittredge should make his 2025 debut sometime in May. Felix Bautista is the club's unquestioned closer when healthy, but Kittredge figures to be a high-leverage, late-inning setup man for Baltimore when he returns. He was a first-time All-Star back with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2021 and has 16 career saves in eight MLB seasons. Kittredge had a 2.80 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with a save and 67 K's in 70 2/3 innings last year with St. Louis.

Andrew Kittredge To Throw Live Bullpen On Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that right-handed reliever Andrew Kittredge (knee) will throw a live batting practice session on Wednesday. It will be the first time that Kittredge will face live hitters since having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee during spring training in March. The 35-year-old veteran reliever began the 2025 season on the 15-day injured list but is making good progress and could be ready to come off the IL for his season debut in May. When healthy, Kittredge could develop into a key late-inning setup man for the Orioles in front of closer Felix Bautista. If he's able to get through a couple live batting practice sessions, Kittredge should be cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment sooner than later. He has yet to pitch in 2025 for Baltimore but was an All-Star in 2021 with the Rays and had a 2.80 ERA with 67 strikeouts in 70 2/3 frames a year ago.
