Dean Kremer, Orioles bullpen unable to show 2022 form in 8-4 loss to Athletics

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:25:05 GMT

Part of the reason the Orioles could justify not being more aggressive in adding starting pitching this offseason was their confidence in their incumbent group.But then top pitching prospect Grayson Rodriguez wasn’t deemed ready for their season-opening rotation. He arrived only because Kyle Bradish exited his season debut in the second inning with a bruised right foot. On Wednesday, Dean Kremer, who opened the year as Baltimore’s No. 2 starter, continued to struggle in an 8-4 defeat to the Oakland Athletics.The Orioles’ bullpen joined Kremer in not looking like the 2022 version, as an Oakland team that entered the night as baseball’s worst struck for four runs over the final two innings, while Kremer again was unable to perform as the pitcher who was perhaps the most improved member of Baltimore’s breakout season.Overcoming a disastrous rookie season to become the most dependable member of the Orioles’ rotation in the year’s second half, th...

Kiké Hernández in center field? Raimel Tapia in left? Yu Chang at second base? Bobby Dalbec at shortstop!?This, obviously, is not what anyone had in mind heading into the season.As injuries keep piling up it’s getting harder for the Red Sox to patch together a functional roster. Wednesday night things took a turn for the ridiculous when Masataka Yoshida was scratched due to right hamstring tightness, forcing the club to trot out its most unorthodox lineup yet.Even without several of their best hitters, the Red Sox still managed to put together one of their best offensive performances of the season, but at the end of the day they didn’t have the firepower to keep up with the high-powered Tampa Bay Rays, who won 9-7 to stay unbeaten at 12-0.Much of the pregame attention fell on Dalbec, who played 33 innings at shortstop during spring training but who had hardly any prior experience at the position entering the year. Naturally the first two balls put in play found their way...
