De Aza (personal) is expected to rejoin Orioles camp Thursday night, MLB.com reports. Manager Buck Showalter gave De Aza permission to leave camp Wednesday for his grandfather's 99th birthday in the Dominican Republic, which happened to also fall on his daughter's birthday. De Aza will look to improve upon his 3-for-24 spring mark this weekend.
