Jerry Crasnick of ESPN.com reports that the Orioles will sign Dontrelle Willis to a minor league contract. Willis was released by the Phillies last week after allowed five runs over 2 2/3 innings while walking four and striking out none this spring. The 30-year-old had a rough 5.00 ERA over 75 2/3 innings last year with the Reds, but held left-handed batters to a .127 batting average. He could function as starting pitching depth in the minors or the O's could move him into a lefty specialist role.
