Tyler Wells Tyler Wells Cruises to second win
Wed, Sep 17, 2025, 4:02 PM
Wells (2-0) earned the win Wednesday against the White Sox, allowing one run on four hits over six innings. He struck out four.

Wed, Sep 17, 2025, 10:56 AM
Cowser is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
Analysis: The left-handed-hitting Cowser will take a seat for Wednesday's matinee while the White Sox send southpaw Martin Perez to the bump. Jorge Mateo will check in for Cowser in center field and will bat ninth. |

Samuel Basallo Samuel Basallo Taking seat Wednesday
Wed, Sep 17, 2025, 10:55 AM
Basallo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
Analysis: With the Orioles closing out their series in Chicago with a day game after a night game and with a lefty (Martin Perez) on the hill for the White Sox, the left-handed-hitting Basallo will get a breather. Alex Jackson will step in behind the plate in place of Basallo, who is batting .186 with two home runs, seven RBI and five runs through 12 games in September. |

Ryan Mountcastle Ryan Mountcastle Fading into reserve role
Wed, Sep 17, 2025, 10:51 AM
Mountcastle is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
Analysis: Mountcastle is on the bench for the fourth time in five games and looks like he'll be limited to a part-time role down the stretch. Since returning from the injured list Aug. 8, Mountcastle has posted a .702 OPS, nearly 100 points above Coby Mayo's mark during that same stretch (.612 OPS). However, because Mayo is seen as a core building block for the Orioles, he'll continue to be prioritized as the team's everyday first baseman ahead of Mountcastle, who is entering his final year of arbitration in 2026 and could be a possible trade or non-tender candidate this offseason. |

Trevor Rogers Trevor Rogers Good to go for next start
Wed, Sep 17, 2025, 10:33 AM
Rogers (toe) will start Friday's game against the Yankees at Camden Yards, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Analysis: Rogers was removed from his most recent start in last Friday's loss to the Blue Jays after developing a blood blister under the nail of his left big toe, but he's responded well to treatment and won't end up missing a turn through the rotation. The southpaw has been a pleasant surprise for the Orioles since returning to the big club after being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on June 18. Over his ensuing 15 starts, Rogers has gone 8-2 with a 1.53 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 88:24 K:BB in 94.1 innings. |

Dylan Carlson Dylan Carlson Rare multi-hit game in win
Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 10:31 PM
Carlson went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 8-7 win over the White Sox.
Analysis: The double was Carlson's first extra-base hit in the month of September, and the multi-hit game was his first since Aug. 16 in Houston. Despite having plenty of opportunities to seize a more significant role in the Orioles' outfield -- Ramon Laureano, Ryan O'Hearn and Cedric Mullins were all traded away back in July -- Carlson has struggled to find his footing in Baltimore throughout 2025. Since the start of August, Carlson is slashing .186/.293/.337 with two home runs and five RBI over his last 99 plate appearances (30 games) en route to posting a putrid .622 OPS for the year. |

Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 10:21 PM
Kremer (10-10) allowed two runs on four hits and three walks over 5.2 innings Tuesday, striking out four and earning a win against the White Sox.
Analysis: It wasn't Kremer's sharpest outing, but he got the job done after allowing a two-run shot to Kyle Teel in the first inning. Despite striking out only four batters, Kremer racked up 16 whiffs on 97 total pitches, including eight with his splitter. However, it was the first time he issued more than two walks since July 19. Kremer is now sporting a 4.39 ERA with a 136:44 K:BB through 164 innings. He's lined up for a home start against the Rays next week. |

Gunnar Henderson Gunnar Henderson Knocks three hits
Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 10:03 PM
Henderson went 3-for-5 with a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's win against the White Sox.
Analysis: Henderson delivered RBI singles in the third and fifth innings for his first multi-RBI game since Aug. 18. Over his previous 24 games since Aug. 18, he had driven in just five runs while producing a .592 OPS. Henderson is still in a power slump and has extended his homerless drought to 20 games. He's slashing .272/.348/.440 with 64 RBI and 82 runs scored through 604 plate appearances. |

Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 6:01 PM
O'Neill is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.
Analysis: O'Neill has gone 2-for-11 with a walk and an RBI in three games since coming off the injured list Friday and will take a seat for Tuesday's contest.

Ryan Mountcastle Ryan Mountcastle Role diminishing
Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 5:42 PM
Mountcastle is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.
Analysis: The 28-year-old is sitting for the fourth time in the past six contests, as Coby Mayo is operating as Baltimore's primary first baseman. Samuel Basallo and Tyler O'Neill have been picking up at-bats at designated hitter over the past week, which has pushed Mountcastle into a less consistent role. He hasn't helped his cause at the plate in September with a .194/.231/.222 slash line in nine games. |

Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 3:31 PM
The Orioles designated Rivera for assignment Tuesday.
Analysis: Baltimore selected the 29-year-old's contract from Triple-A Norfolk in late August to fill the roster spot of Jordan Westburg, but Westburg is making his return from the IL on Tuesday. Rivera played 16 games during his two-plus weeks in the majors and had a .580 OPS, which is on par with his production in the majors earlier in 2025. |

Dietrich Enns Dietrich Enns Earns second save
Mon, Sep 15, 2025, 10:34 PM
