IronBirds 2013 Roster- Pitchers

The IronBirds released their 2013 training camp roster today, so we've decided to break down the pitching staff first and give you some info on your 2013 IronBirds!

With the IronBirds season opener just four days away, the IronBirds released their training camp roster today! Worth noting, this isn't the official opening day roster, players are sure to be added to the roster as more 2013 Orioles draft picks sign on the dotted line. First, we take a look at the pitchers.

 - RHP Luc Rennie: A 16th round pick in 2012, the 19-year-old San Diego, California native went 1-1 with a 3.04 ERA in 12 games for the GCL Orioles in 2012

- LHP Jorge Rivera: Signed in 2008, the 22-year-old lefty went 1-3 with a 3.26 ERA in 8 starts for the IronBirds in 2012.

- RHP Williams Louico: Signed in 2008, Louico, 23, was a 2-time DSL mid-season All-Star before playing for the Delmarva ShoreBirds in 2012 and 2013.

-RHP Austin Urban: Urban was a 27th round pick by the O's in 2010, but did not sign because he was heavily committed to Penn State University, the 20 year old was then drafted in the 41st round in 2011 by the Chicago Cubs before missing all of 2012 with an injury and getting let go by the Cubs. The O's liked him coming out of Richland HS, so keep an eye on him in 2013.

- RHP Alexander Santana: Signed as a non-drafted FA in 2009, the 21-year-old Dominican impressed with the GCL Orioles and IronBirds in 2012, going 6-4 with a 2.45 ERA in 19 games (6 starts).

- P Jose Figueroa: Relatively unknown, Figueroa is going into his 1st season with the O's organization.

- P Michael Joseph: Signed out of Middlebury College in August 2012, the 6-7, 215 pound pitcher is going into his 1st season with the Orioles Organization, and went 0-1 with a 3.28 ERA while posting 3 saves in 21 games for the Middlebury Panthers in 2012.

 -LHP Harrison Marino: The 22 year old lefty out of Williams College is going into his 1st season with the organization. He was a former Arizona Diamondbacks prospect, going 2-0 with a 2.60 ERA in 16 games with the AZL D'Backs.
