Making 1-to-2 more rehab starts
Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias said Friday that Bassitt (back) will make 1-to-2 more rehab starts before rejoining the active roster, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
Bassitt gave up one run over 3.1 innings in his first rehab outing with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday. He got his pitch count up to 46 in that start and will continue to stretch out with at least one more rehab outing. Bassitt has been out since early June following surgery to remove bone spurs from his back, and he posted a 5.27 ERA in 56.1 innings before getting hurt. The 37-year-old isn't a given to go back into the Orioles' rotation once he's deemed physically ready, though that could depend on what the club does at the trade deadline.

Impressive in rehab start
Bassitt (back) tossed 3.1 innings, allowing one run on one hit and a walk while striking out three batters in Tuesday's rehab start with Triple-A Norfolk, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
Bassitt surrendered a solo home run to Franklin Arias (No. 1 prospect for Red Sox) on the first pitch of the game, but he quickly settled in, retiring 10 of the next 11 batters. The right-hander registered 28 strikes over his 46 total pitches, and he'll likely build up past 60-plus pitches in his next outing with Norfolk. Bassitt has been on the injured list since June 8 while recovering from lower-back discomfort, which ultimately required surgery. He's eligible to be activated from the 60-day IL on Aug. 4, though he'll likely return to the major-league roster in mid-to-late August.

Ready for rehab assignment
Bassitt (back) will embark on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
Bassitt has been shelved since early June due to a back injury, which required a minor procedure to remove bone spurs. He's ready to take the next step in his recovery program, and he'll likely need a lengthy rehab assignment before returning to the Orioles' rotation. Bassitt appeared in 12 games (10 starts) before his IL stint and had a 5.27 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 37:22 K:BB across 56.1 innings.

Throws bullpen session Saturday
Bassitt (back) threw a bullpen session Saturday, per MLB.com.
Analiz
It's a significant step forward for Bassitt, who's continuing his throwing progression as he works his way back from an extended absence with lower-back tightness. The veteran right-hander received a facet injection in mid-June and then underwent a minor procedure to have a bone spur removed shortly thereafter. Bassitt is likely to require a lengthy rehab assignment once he's cleared for game action, so his return to Baltimore's rotation is unlikely to come until sometime in mid-to-late August.
