Orioles' Cooper Hummel: Rejoining Baltimore
Hummel agreed to a major-league contract with the Orioles on Friday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The 30-year-old elected free agency after being designated for assignment by the Orioles earlier this week, but that was more of an administrative decision as he's now back with the club. Hummel isn't likely to have an everyday role, but the placement of Cedric Mullins (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list leaves Baltimore with significant at-bats to fill.

Orioles' Cooper Hummel: Gets deal with Baltimore
Hummel signed a one-year contract with the Orioles on Sunday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Before opting out of his minor-league deal with the Yankees a few days earlier, Hummel had seen action in 10 games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, slashing .258/.415/.290 with no home runs and a stolen base over 41 plate appearances. The switch-hitting Hummel will immediately head to the big leagues with his new organization and could emerge as a short-side platoon player for the Orioles at either designated hitter on in a corner outfield spot.
