SARASOTA, Fla. (AP) — Right-hander Dylan Bundy has agreed to a $1.64 million, one-year contract with the Baltimore Orioles, the same as his salary last year.Bundy is in an usual situation because he was in the last class allowed to sign major league contracts directly from the amateur draft and made his major league debut in 2012, but does not have enough service time to be eligible for salary arbitration.He had Tommy John surgery in 2013 and did not return to the major leagues until 2016, when he was 10-6 with a 4.02 ERA. After agreeing to a $6.25 million, five-year contract that ran through 2016, Bundy had a split contract last year calling for $1.64 million in the majors and $500,000 in the minors. He went 13-9 with a 4.24 ERA.The 25-year-old was the fourth overall pick in 2011. He is on track to be eligible for arbitration next winter.In other moves Wednesday, the Orioles optioned outfielder Joey Rickard to Triple-A Norfolk and reassigned infielder and left-hander Ruben Tejada to their minor league camp.___More AP baseball: https://apnews.com/tag/MLBbaseball

BALTIMORE -- Rookie outfielder Joey Rickard cooled off following a very hot start, but Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter remains very happy with how the Rule 5 pick is faring overall.Rickard, who did not start the series finale against the New York Yankees on Thursday, has a solid .269 average, batting mostly in the leadoff spot and playing left and right field.He is giving the Baltimore lineup a boost and helping the team get off to a good start this year.The Orioles picked him from the Tampa Bay Rays in the Rule 5 draft in the winter, looking for outfield depth, but Rickard hit .397 in spring training to win a starting outfield spot.Despite his offense slowing a bit in recent games, Rickard has two homers and seven RBIs."Joey's been good," Showalter said. "He's living the American dream. He's fine. We're real proud of him."Rickard, 24, shows both patience and aggressiveness at the plate -- and he doesn't change his approach. "When he's still taking that walk late in the (Wednesday) game, down 7-0, that's what I want to continue to see," Showalter said. "He'll make the adjustments. He's too athletic and too smart not to."
