McFarland was recalled by the Orioles on Tuesday, MASN's Roch Kubatko reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lefty Ashur Tolliver was sent down to Triple-A on Sunday, but the Orioles waited until after their day off to make a corresponding move by recalling McFarland. The left-handed McFarland will likely serve in a long relief role during his stint with the Orioles, especially in the absence of Vance Worley (groin). That said, McFarland has made four starts at Triple-A Norfolk this season and could make a spot start if the Orioles suffer an injury in the rotation.
