|
Brad Brach |
 |
Tagged for a homer in his lone appearance for the week - a two inning stint during a 5-1 loss to the New York Mets. |
Zach Britton |
 |
Two straight two out appearances against the New York Yankees. Recorded his 6th save of the year without allowing a run. |
Wei-Yin Chen |
 |
Dominated the Yankees to the tune of one earned run on just five hits over seven innings. Not generally known for his swing and miss stuff, but did notch 7Ks. |
Jason Garcia |
 |
Continues to struggle with control and walked four batters in just an inning. |
Miguel Gonzalez |
 |
After a dominating start last week against the Tampa Bay Rays, Gonzalez regressed, allowing 5 runs on 5 hits in just 4 innings. |
Tommy Hunter |
 |
Only run allowed this week was unearned. Other than that, four strikeouts in 2+ innings of work. |
Ubaldo Jimenez |
 |
Inefficient Ubaldo was back for this game, a 5-1 loss to the Mets. Defense behind him was questionable, however, and he was lifted for a PH after just 4 innings. |
Brian Matusz |
 |
Actually managed 4+ innings of relief this week without allowing too much damage. Although his ERA hangs below 3.00 for the season, FIP and WAR don't like BMat much. |
T.J. McFarland |
 |
First taste of action this season went pretty well for TJ. Three innings and just one hit allowed. |
Bud Norris |
 |
A two start week for Bud started out okay (7 IP, 7 H, 3 ER), but ended in much less exciting fashion (3.1 IP, 6 H, 4 ER). He needed 88 pitches in the second start to record 10 outs. |
Darren O'Day |
 |
Lack of leads means lack of setup man appearances. |
Chris Tillman |
 |
Tillman has never put up outstanding numbers in April, but these are worse than usual. In just over 5 innings, Tillman allowed 4 earned runs on 10 hits. He walked and struck out three batters each. |
Catchers |
|
|
Caleb Joseph |
 |
He's not lighting the world on fire, but you can't really complain about they guy picking up 5 hits in 18 trips, including a double and a homer. OPS sits at .874 for the season. |
Rod Lavarnway |
 |
What you can complain about is this guy hitting .136 in his backup role. When is Wieters due back? |
Infielders |
|
|
Chris Davis |
 |
A couple of homers is nice, but the Orioles really need more than four hits from Davis in a week. |
Ryan Flaherty |
 |
Getting a week pass since he's just back from the DL, but the 0-3 with 3Ks yesterday wasn't pretty. |
J.J. Hardy |
 |
Not an amazing return from the DL, but he does already have his first homer of the year. |
Manny Machado |
 |
Another solid week for Machado, who has been hitting far better of late. His numbers now sit about where he was at last year, although he's taking a few more walks this year. |
Jimmy Paredes |
 |
Continues to stroke the ball with authority, picking up nine hits in 25 AB. Had a double, triple, and two home runs while walking twice. |
Steve Pearce |
 |
Struggles have kept him out of the lineup. |
Outfielders |
|
|
Alejandro De Aza |
 |
Did hit his third homer of the year, but has, for the most part, struggled to hit. No different this week at 2-12. |
Adam Jones |
 |
Without a doubt, his worst week of the young season. Just 5 hits in 25 AB (only one for extra bases) and a walk. |
David Lough |
 |
0-4 |
Travis Snider |
 |
Certainly not a bad week at 4-14. Crowded outfield and platoon splits keeps playing time somewhat limited. |
Delmon Young |
 |
Surprisingly decent at both the plate and in the field. Seven hits and a couple of RBIs and perhaps the best shocked face of the week. |
Disabled List |

Kevin Gausman |
 |
(Shoulder) - Will have an MRI tomorrow in order to help determine the root cause of his shoulder issues. |
Jonathan Schoop |

Matt Wieters |
 |
(Elbow) - Transferred to the 60 day DL and still not ready for a return. June seems a more likely target at the moment. |
