Who's hot and who's not for the Baltimore Orioles:
| Rotation | ||
|
|
Jake Arrieta |
Most recent start was an improvement (no walks, 3 ER over 7 innings), but still allowed 2 home runs. |
|
|
Brad Bergesen |
Torched for 6 runs (4 earned) by Boston, but followed up with a nice start against Anaheim, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits. |
|
|
Jeremy Guthrie | Two starts, 14 innings pitched, 5 earned runs, and only one win to show for it. Pitched better than his line suggests in yesterday's game, as he wasn't getting many of the calls Tyler Chatwood received. |
|
|
Alfredo Simon | He's been the Orioles' best starter over the past two weeks. No, seriously! Gave up just 2 earned runs this week, but still took the loss thanks to a completely anemic showing from the offense. |
| Bullpen | ||
|
|
Jason Berken |
Appeared in three games, but only pitched 1 inning. In two of three outs, he was brought in, gave up a hit, and was removed. |
|
|
Mike Gonzalez |
Wonder if any teams out there want some left-handed relief help.... |
|
|
Kevin Gregg |
Every appearance is an adventure. |
|
|
Mark Hendrickson |
Did not record an out. |
|
|
Chris Jakubauskas |
Liked it much better when he would start, pitch 5 innings and give up 3 runs. |
|
|
Jim Johnson |
Solid as always. Three innings, one hit, no runs. |
|
|
Troy Patton |
Curious as to why he didn't get more looks considering the other guys the O's have been trotting out there. |
|
|
Koji Uehara |
One inning, no runs. Will he still be here following the deadline? |
|
|
Mark Worrell | Currently sporting an ERA of 36.00......need I say more? |
| Lineup | ||
|
|
Robert Andino | Three singles this week in eleven ABs |
|
|
Matt Angle | Did not have a hit in his short stay. Returned to the minors after Luke came off of the disabled list. |
|
|
Josh Bell |
Nugget has two hits so far in his return to the bigs. |
|
|
Blake Davis |
When is Brian Roberts supposed to return? |
|
|
J.J. Hardy | Over halfway (14) to his career best in home runs (26 with Milwaukee). |
|
|
Adam Jones | Hit the ball very well for the second week in a row. Added three home runs and 6 RBI. |
|
|
Derrek Lee | Added a triple and a home run this week, but little else. |
|
|
Nick Markakis | Struggled early in the week, but finished with a bang. |
|
|
Felix Pie | OPS is drifting down toward .500, but will probably get additional playing time with Luke Scott likely out for the season. |
|
|
Nolan Reimold | Getting some more playing time and needs to show he can play (otherwise he'll end up stapled to the bench again). |
|
|
Mark Reynolds | Fighting off Josh Bell for starts at 3B saying that he needs to be in the field to maintain the flow of the game. This comes as a surprise to anyone who has watched him try to play defense. In other news, finally getting some swings in the cleanup spot. K Tracker: 110 |
|
|
Craig Tatum | Grabbing some hits, throwing some runners out. |
|
|
Matt Wieters | Thought a lot of his swings over the weekend were pretty lazy. Had a nice start to the week, but tailed off. Maybe it was the heat. |
