Who's hot and who's not among the Orioles this week
| Rotation | ||

Would like to see him walk fewer to get him deeper into games (and prevent the bullpen from even getting the chance to lose the game), but can't complain about the effort this week. Two games this week with 5 H and 3 ER got him his third win of the season. | |
|
|
Looked pretty darn good in his lone start this week, allowing just 2 R on 6 H over 6 innings, but did not get anything to show for it (besides an up arrow). | |
|
|
Two starts, two earned runs, two wins. Yea...that'll do, Zach. That'll do. | |
|
|
Nothing to see here, folks. | |
|
|
A solid six innings of work and nothing to show for it. Allowed just four free passes this year compared to 19 Ks. | |
|
|
Felt good in a side session this week, which is fantastic news. | |

Didn't miss any bats this week, but can't complain about the effort. |

3 innings of work and 2 ER. At least the Orioles won both game he pitched in. | |
|
|
What happened to the Berken from the beginning of the season? Is he lost already? Went from mowin' em down to making every at-bat an adventure. His effort yesterday (among others) nearly cost the Orioles a five run lead. | |
|
|
Good grief. Almost positive this guy has absolutely no clue where the ball is going once it leaves his hand. Worked against Chicago (hard-pressed to say that's a big achievement), but not against Boston, where he allowed 2 ER and recorded just one out. | |
|

|
Three straight saves. Good man. |
| -- | Roller coaster week for JJ. Two runs here, no runs there. Two runs here, no runs there. Two of those runs net him his first loss of the year. | |
|
|
This guy has creepy teeth. This guy also has a 16.88 ERA. Hmmm...same as last week. | |
|
-- |
Just 1 IP this week. Guess that's what happens when you don't pitch effectively. | |
|
-- |
Blew a save against Boston and gave up another run against the White Sox. What's up with the bullpen these days? | |
| Lineup | ||
|
|
Hitting the ball pretty darn hard and has an .824 OPS to show for it. | |
|
|
Sigh. The catcher should, by definition, be able to catch the ball. Oh and how 'bout that .504 OPS..... | |
|
-- |
Rapidly approaching a record for plate appearances without a walk. | |
|
|
Remains on the DL, but is apparently progressing. | |
|
-- |
More DNPs than Jones had hits this week..... | |
|
|
Looked as though the bat was starting to show up, but then follows with a two hit week. Gotta love his arm though. | |
|
-- |
Decent series against Boston, but a real stinker over the weekend. OPS actually increased, however (up to .591 from .570) | |
|
|
Fewer hits than Izturis DNPs this week. Ouch. Three-run double yesterday was nice and definitely something we need to see more of. | |
|
-- |
Started once and had hits. Ironically, the same number of hits Adam Jones picked up this week. | |
|
|
K Tracker: 25 | |

Pretty solid week for B-Rob. Nothing special, but did a little of everything including 5 hits, 2 stolen bases, 4 RBI, and 4 walks. | |
|
|
Found his stroke this week and watched three swings leave the park. Also added 6 RBI which more than doubled his previous yearly total. | |
|
|
Failed prospect had a decent week for himself including 5 hits and 5 RBI. OPS hanging right around .800 for the season. |
