The Orioles optioned Gibson to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.
The move corresponds with the Orioles selecting Josh Walker's contract from Norfolk and the team transferring Heston Kjerstad (hamstring) to the 60-day injured list. Gibson made his major-league debut May 3 in a spot start against the Yankees and was used in long relief against the Athletics on Friday. Across those two outings, he has allowed four runs on seven hits (including two homers) and three walks while striking out four across 6.2 frames.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Needed in long relief Friday
Rotowire
Gibson gave up one run on three hits and one walk over two innings of relief in Friday's 4-3 loss to the A's. He struck out two.
Called back up from Triple-A Norfolk earlier in the day, Gibson was immediately deployed by manager Craig Albernaz in a long-relief role. It's a vote of confidence in Brandon Young's ability to hold down a spot in the rotation as injuries pile up on Baltimore's staff, but Gibson also hasn't done much to push for a bigger role. The 23-year-old right-hander has a 4.01 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 25:12 K:BB over 24.2 innings for Norfolk, and in two big-league appearances (one start) he's managed a 5.40 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 4:3 K:BB in 6.2 frames.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Back with big club
Rotowire
The Orioles recalled Gibson from Triple-A Norfolk on Friday.
The right-hander was briefly up with Baltimore for a spot start last weekend and will now rejoin the major-league club with Cade Povich (shoulder) landing on the injured list. Gibson is one of the organization's top prospects and gave up three runs across 4.2 innings during his big-league debut. With Trevor Rogers (illness) nearing his return from the IL, Gibson could be available out of the bullpen Friday versus the Athletics, according to Andy Kostka of TheBanner.com.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Goes 4.2 innings in debut
Rotowire
Gibson did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Yankees, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out two.
Making his major-league debut, Gibson gave up a solo home run to Ben Rice in the first inning before Aaron Judge added a two-run blast in the third. Overall, it was a decent debut for Gibson against one of the league's premier offenses. Still, he'll likely return to Triple-A with Trevor Rogers (illness) expected to rejoin the rotation soon.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Contract selected for MLB debut
Rotowire
The Orioles selected Gibson's contract from Triple-A Norfolk, and he will start Sunday's game against the Yankees.
Gibson will fill the rotation spot vacated by Trevor Rogers, who recently landed on the injured list due to an illness. The 23-year-old righty is one of the organization's top prospects and has a 4.01 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 25:12 K:BB across 24.2 innings to begin the season with Norfolk. Gibson is likely in line for just one start with the Orioles, but a strong debut could give himself a chance of getting a longer look in the majors.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Tapped for start Sunday
Rotowire
Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said that Gibson will be called up from Triple-A Norfolk to start Sunday's game against the Yankees in New York, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
The 23-year-old ranks as one of the top pitching prospects in Baltimore's system and has posted a 4.01 ERA and 1.65 WHIP through 24.2 innings (six starts) with Triple-A Norfolk this season. The Orioles don't have an opening in their rotation past Sunday and could get Trevor Rogers (illness) back from the injured list in mid-May, so Gibson will likely return to Triple-A after making his MLB debut.

Orioles' Trey Gibson: Joins taxi squad
Rotowire
Gibson joined the Orioles' taxi squad Saturday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
The Orioles haven't announced a starter for Sunday's series finale against the Yankees, and Gibson joining the big club in the Bronx on Saturday is a sign that he'll end up getting the nod to make his MLB debut. The 23-year-old righty has made six starts this season at Triple-A Norfolk and owns a 4.01 ERA and 1.65 WHIP as well as a 25:12 K:BB through 24.2 innings.
Gibson has a 3.12 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 12:1 K:BB in 8.2 innings across two starts since getting promoted to Triple-A Norfolk on Aug. 12.
Gibson has a 2.34 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 119 strikeouts in 77 innings over his last 16 starts across Double-A and Triple-A. The 23-year-old righty has always had success missing bats and generating groundballs, but this year Gibson's control took a step forward. He had never logged a walk rate below 9.7 percent coming into the year, but in 2025 he's had a walk rate below 9.0 percent at all three stops and holds an 8.0 percent walk rate on the season. While Gibson isn't on the 40-man roster, he could make his big-league debut either late this year or early in 2026.
