Aquino will attend the Orioles' big-league camp as a non-roster invitee, Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Aquino appeared in four games for Baltimore in 2017, two of which were starts. He struggled during that brief sample and allowed 11 runs on 15 hits and six walks over 13.1 innings. The 25-year-old southpaw could compete for a spot in the bullpen, but may need to show some improvement at Triple-A Norfolk before earning another shot with the big club.

Aquino agreed to a minor-league deal with the Orioles on Friday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Aquino made four appearances with Baltimore in 2017, posting a 7.43 ERA and 1.58 WHIP over 13.1 innings. During 21 starts with Triple-A Norfolk -- where he'll likely begin next season -- the southpaw sported an 89:41 K:BB and held a 4.24 ERA. The 25-year-old has struggled during his brief opportunities in the big leagues, but it appears as though the Orioles still have some confidence that he can find success at the next level.

Aquino was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
This move clears room on the 40-man roster for Austin Hays, the Orioles' top prospect, to join the big club. Aquino compiled an unsightly 7.43 ERA and 1.58 WHIP in 13.1 major-league innings this season. The 24-year-old will now head through waivers to determine his next landing spot.

Aquino was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
As has been the case numerous times this season, Aquino will head back to the minors now that his arm is unavailable for the coming days. He's made a number of spot starts for Baltimore this season, although with Chris Tillman (personal) nearing a return to the rotation, there may be limited opportunities for his services in the rotation for the foreseeable future. Infielder Johnny Giavotella will fill his roster spot.

Aquino (1-2) allowed four runs -- three earned -- on five hits in Milwaukee on Wednesday, though he struck out seven without a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Aquino hadn't missed many bats in his prior MLB appearances this season, so those whiffs are a surprise. He's been a high-WHIP pitcher in the upper minors, and that doesn't offer a lot of hope for Aquino, who was only up for a spot start and will likely be sent down promptly.

Aquino was called up by the Orioles on Wednesday, and will make his second start of the season against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Aquino is taking the place of Chris Tillman, who was placed on paternity leave prior to Wednesday's contest. During three appearances with Baltimore this season, Aquino has given up eight earned runs off 10 hits and six walks in just eight innings on the mound. He will have his hands full against a hot Milwaukee offense for his second career start at the big-league level.

Aquino will be recalled from Triple-A Norfolk to start Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Aquino will step in to start for Chris Tillman, who is expected to be on placed on the paternity list prior to the contest. The 24-year-old held his own in a spot start earlier in the season for the Orioles -- allowing two runs over 6.1 innings -- but he struggled in a pair of relief appearances afterwards, which ultimately resulted in him returning to the minors. He owns a 4.46 ERA and 55:24 K:BB through 12 starts (66.2 innings) at Triple-A this season.

Aquino was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Donnie Hart was recalled in a corresponding move Saturday as Aquino heads back to the minors. Aquino did not make any appearances during his most recent call-up and has not made any major league outings since April 28. He'll be on a short list of left-handed options down in the minors should Hart struggle.
