Who's hot and who's not for the Baltimore Orioles:
Rotation | ||
|
Jake Arrieta | Here's his line for the last 7 days: 8.2 IP, 13 H, 13 ER, 4 BB, 8 SO, 13.50 ERA. Yeah, the number 13 is not lucky. |
|
Wei-Yin Chen | Scattered a bunch of hits against Boston, but allowed just 1 to score. Didn't walk anybody in that start as well. |
|
Jason Hammel | Didn't have his best stuff yesterday, but was stronger in his first start over the past seven days. Totaled 5 ER, but walked 8 to 11 strikeouts. |
|
Tommy Hunter | Numbers for Saturday's start weren't awful, but cool it with the home runs, dude. Days in the rotation are likely numbered with Zach Britton on his way back. |
|
Brian Matusz | Lasted just 2 innings in his most recent start against Boston. Walked 5, did not K a single batter, and was tagged for 4 ER. |
Bullpen | ||
|
Luis Ayala | Tagged for an earned run, but was mostly solid over 3.1 IP. |
|
Dana Eveland | Pitched three scoreless in relief of Jake Arrieta against Philly on Friday. Can't really ask for any more out of your long man. |
|
Miguel Gonzalez | Solid 4 innings of long relief (for Brian Matusz), but ended up back in the minors to make room for Hunter. |
|
Kevin Gregg | Oh, is he still here? |
|
Jim Johnson | Got his first blown save after a home run that possibly wasn't. Went right back out and got the win an inning later, then picked another save (his 18th on the year). |
|
Darren O'Day | Yeah, he gave up a run in that 7-0 loss to Boston, but can't complain much since he followed up with 3 scoreless innings over 2 more appearances. |
|
Troy Patton | Outing in Boston was rough, but recovered in yesterday's game. |
|
Pedro Strop | Blown save in a game the O's would eventually win, but was solid otherwise. |
Lineup | ||
|
Robert Andino | Numbers continue to dip as the slump rolls on. OBP has now dropped below .300 for the season after a 6 for 26 week with no BBs. |
|
Wilson Betemit | After a 3 for 14 week, Betemit is now 4 for 21 in June. Ugly. |
|
Endy Chavez | A decent 8 for 27 (.296) week, but no XBHs. |
|
Chris Davis | Among the most solid O's at the plate this week. Went 5 for 15 with a double, home run, 2 BB, and 3 RBI. |
|
Ryan Flaherty | A 4 for 12 week (all singles) essentially makes up one of Flaherty's best weeks of the season. Eek. |
|
J.J. Hardy | Pretty dismal week for Hardy, who went 3 for 29 (.103), but did have a home run and triple. Homer was his first since May 14th. |
|
Nick Johnson | Not really serving any purpose, as he never plays. Went 2 for 4 this week. |
|
Adam Jones | We'll ignore the 5 for 27 week on account of the sweet walk-off homer on Saturday (and the fact that his OPS is still .913). |
|
Ronny Paulino | Just 2 for 9 this week, but did manage to reach base in all three games he played in. |
|
Steve Pearce | Like Paulino, Pearce hit 2 for 9 this week, but hey, this is way better than watching Wilson Betemit in the OF. |
|
Mark Reynolds | Ugly 2 for 15 week at the plate. Pretty ugly in the field too. |
|
Steve Tolleson | Just 1 for 8 on the plate (home run yesterday was sweet), but comments about importance of Roberts to team were pretty classy. Keep it up, bud. You'll be back to the team soon. |
|
Matt Wieters | Continues his slump busting with an 8 for 24 week including a walk-off double in yesterday's game that was pretty close to leaving the park. |
