Another Southern Arizonan has made the big leagues.
The Baltimore Orioles announced Tuesday that they're calling up Manny Barreda, a 2007 Sahuarita High School graduate who recently pitched for Mexico in the Olympics. The right-hander will join Baltimore's bullpen.
We have made the following roster moves:-Recalled RHP Mike Baumann from Triple-A Norfolk.-Selected the contract of RHP Manny Barreda from Triple-A Norfolk.-Optioned RHP Zack Burdi to Triple-A Norfolk.
— Baltimore Orioles (@Orioles) September 7, 2021
The 32-year-old Barreda has impressed in minor-league ball this season, posting a 4.08 ERA in 24 appearances at Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Norfolk, two of them starts. He signed with the Orioles organization out of the Mexican League, where he was pitching for Tijuana.
Barreda made 277 minor-league appearances in 11 seasons with the Yankees, Brewers, Braves and Orioles organizations. He has also pitched with Tijuana, Culiacan and Los Mochis.
Barreda is the second Southern Arizona high-school product to make the big leagues this season. Right-hander Andre Jackson, a Cienega High School graduate, made his major-league debut with the Dodgers last month. Former Arizona Wildcats Alfonso Rivas and Tylor Megill joined the Cubs and Mets, respectively, earlier this season.
Andrew Nardi is the 34th Arizona Wildcat to make the big leagues since 2009. Here are all of them:
