The night before Dylan Bundy was set to make his first major league start, the Orioles saw another health concern arise with the top pitching prospect in the organization.

Right-hander Hunter Harvey left Saturday’s start with short-season Single-A Aberdeen with right forearm soreness. The 21-year-old lasted just 1 2/3 innings and threw 23 pitches before being removed from the game.

Manager Buck Showalter didn’t offer many specifics regarding Harvey prior to Sunday’s series finale at Tampa Bay, but he noted that his velocity was in the mid-90s and expressed hope that it was more of a precautionary move. Of course, this isn’t the first time that Harvey has experienced arm problems as he was shut down with right flexor mass soreness in 2014 and again experienced elbow discomfort last year.

Those concerns coupled with a fibula fracture in 2015 and sports hernia surgery earlier this year have limited the 2013 first-round pick to just 12 2/3 minor-league innings since July of 2014.
