The Orioles transferred Westburg (elbow) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday.
The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Albert Suarez, who was called up from Triple-A Norfolk. Westburg is working his way back from a partially torn UCL in his right elbow and has progressed to swinging a bat and playing catch, manager Craig Albernaz said Wednesday, per Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. As a result of his move to the 60-day IL, Westburg won't be eligible for activation until May 21 as Baltimore brings him along slowly. Coby Mayo will continue to fill in at third base for the Orioles while Westburg is sidelined.
