The Orioles placed Wolfram on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a lower-back strain, retroactive to Saturday.
Wolfram hasn't pitched since he gave up one run in two-thirds of an inning against the Marlins last Wednesday, and it appears his absence has been due to a back injury. His move to the injured list will rule him out until at least May 24, and the O's will recall Tyler Wells from Triple-A Norfolk to fill the vacancy in their bullpen.

Orioles' Grant Wolfram: Registers fifth hold
Rotowire
Wolfram picked up a hold Wednesday against the Marlins, allowing one run on two hits and no walks in two-thirds of an inning.
The 29-year-old left-hander has now given up five earned runs in his last nine appearances, so he appears to be well out of contention for save chances in the absence of closer Ryan Helsley's (elbow). Although Wolfram has a superb 20:1 K:BB with five holds over 13 innings, he also has a rocky 4.85 ERA and 1.54 WHIP.

Orioles' Grant Wolfram: Rebounds in scoreless appearance
Rotowire
Wolfram allowed one hit and no walks in two-thirds of an inning Friday against the Dodgers.
The Orioles hadn't called upon Wolfram in a week after he threw a season-high 42 pitches and yielded five runs his last time out, but the hurler was able to bounce back with a scoreless outing Friday. Although the southpaw had a ghastly 9.28 ERA through July, he's shown great improvement at run prevention recently. Over his last 11.1 innings, Wolfram has overcome a 1.50 WHIP to post a 0.79 ERA and 15:3 K:BB.

Brewers' Grant Wolfram: Gets first MLB call-up
Rotowire
The Brewers recalled Wolfram from Triple-A Nashville ahead of Sunday's game against the Reds.
With the Brewers placing lefty Nestor Cortes (elbow) on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move, Wolfram will move up to the big leagues for the first time in his career. The 28-year-old lefty turned in a 3.34 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 61:26 K:BB over 56.2 innings at Triple-A Round Rock in the Rangers organization in 2024, but he hadn't been as sharp through his two relief appearances at Nashville this season, allowing two earned runs on one hit and four walks over three innings. He'll likely work in middle relief during his stint with Milwaukee.

Brewers' Grant Wolfram: Bumped from majors camp
Rotowire
The Brewers optioned Wolfram to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Wolfram got a major-league contract from the Brewers this offseason even though he's never spent time in the big leagues, but he didn't look like a major leaguer this spring in yielding five runs (four earned) on seven hits and five walks over five innings. The lefty reliever will try to impress at Nashville to earn a look by the big club later on.
