Randall Kade Strowd (born September 17, 1997) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2025.
Career
[edit | edit source]Strowd was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 12th round, with the 348th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[1] He made his professional debut with the Low–A Aberdeen IronBirds. Strowd did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] He returned to action in 2021 with High–A Aberdeen, making 21 appearances and struggling to an 0–3 record and 8.05 ERA with 45 strikeouts over 38 innings pitched.[3]
Strowd split the 2022 campaign between Aberdeen and the rookie–level Florida Complex League Orioles. In 13 games split between the two affiliates, he compiled a 2–1 record and 1.06 ERA with 24 strikeouts over 17 innings of work.[4] Strowd spent the 2023 season with the Double–A Bowie Baysox, registering a 4–1 record and 5.20 ERA with 67 strikeouts and 2 saves across 55+1⁄3 innings pitched.[5]
In 46 appearances split between Double–A Bowie and the Triple–A Norfolk Tides, he compiled a 6–3 record and 5.44 ERA with 71 strikeouts across 51+1⁄3 innings pitched. On November 19, 2024, the Orioles added Strowd to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[6]
Strowd was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk to begin the 2025 season.[7] On April 28, 2025, Strowd was promoted to the major leagues for the first time;[8] and was optioned back to Triple-A the following day without making an appearance, briefly becoming a phantom ballplayer.[9] On May 18, Strowd was recalled to the major leagues after Kyle Gibson was designated for assignment,[10] and subsequently made his major league debut.[11]
