Denoyer was optioned to minor-league camp Friday by the Orioles, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Denoyer appeared in 21 games in the minors last year, tossing 71.2 innings across three levels with a 2.89 ERA and 99:17 K:BB, and he was protected by the Orioles from the Rule 5 draft this offseason by being added to the 40-man roster. The right-hander could make his big-league debut in 2023, but for now will likely begin the season with Triple-A Norfolk.
