Overview of the Series of Orioles Rames: leave the second half

Orioles begin the second half of the season on the road to Tampa, where temperatures will work in the mid -90s and the sun will be cut. It will be sweaty.

When the Orioles and the Rays met for the last time less than a month ago, the rays were on the edge of first place in the Al East. They were half a game from first place and had a good range on the first point of Joker. Their defeat of 22-8 against the Orioles launched a round of 4-12, the worst record of the AL at that time. They fell in fourth place in the Al East and now have 1.5 Joker match.

They lost the series against the Orioles as well as the series against the A, the twins, the Tigers and the Red Sox to close the first half.

Aside from two solid losses against the Orioles (22-8 and 5-1), the Rays were not blown away in their cold sequence. Eight of their 12 defeats were one or two points. They simply cannot conclude the agreement. This is partly of the enclosure of the lifts, because the team has undergone an supplement and three departure losses. Overall, their emergency launchers allowed 37% of runners inherited to score, the worst of the American League.

This could be the reason why Rays have chosen to trade against Bryan Baker. Baker has only made one appearance for rays since trade, just after it happened. He did badly. How many Orioles do you think he will go out this weekend? And is he going Moonwalk?

Match 1: Friday July 18, 7:35 p.m. – Masn2

Charlie Morton (14 GS, 5.18 ERA, 88 k / 38 bb) vs Taj Bradley (19 GS, 4.60 ERA, 90 k / 40 bb)

How many departures do you think that Charlie Morton left with the Orioles? His time is still horrible, but he has an ERA of 3.05 since April 29. He has returned to full -time rotation since May 26, and at that time, his time was 2.76. You must think that it will soon be exchanged. Morton left the Rays this year, and it was a good one. He gave a point on six strokes in six sleeves without walking and seven stick withdrawals.

The Taj Bradley faced the Orioles twice this season and has done very badly twice. On June 18, Bradley was eliminated from the match after only 1.1 rounds. He was overthrown for seven points at that time. And on June 29, he launched the sixth round but granted five points.

Match 2: Saturday July 19, 7:05 p.m. – Masn 2

Dean Kremer (18 GS, 4.24 ERA, 88 k / 27 bb) against Zack Littell (19 GS, 3.56 ERA, 80 K / 17 BB)

Dean Kremer is Dean Kremer, right? He will abandon five points or zero races, roughly. And you never know what it will be given one day. His latest start before the stars break was a beautiful against the marlins with seven laundry rounds. Maybe he can start again. Or maybe he will be bad. It is the excitement of Dean. So far this year, he has set up two good starts compared to the shelves.

Zack Littell has a solid era but its 4.96 FIP does not support it. He sold 24 circuits, which leads the league. He doesn’t eliminate it much but he keeps his walks. Like Kremer, Littell faced this opponent twice this year. On June 17, Littell launched a start of quality of 6 rounds and three points. On the 28th, he won the victory with seven ball handles at a point.

Match 3: Sunday July 20, 12:10 p.m. – Masn2

Trevor Rogers (6 GS, 1.53 ERA, 32 k / 10 BB vs Ryan Pepiot (20 GS, 3.38 ERA, 110 K / 37 BB)

Don’t look at now, but it’s the ACE Trevor Rogers team. Rogers has made six departures for the Orioles since his arrival of minors, and five of them were very good. Unfortunately, his only Clunker came against the shelves. It will be his chance to overthrow the steam. Whenever he starts, it’s another chance to imagine him as an important part of the 2026 team.

Ryan Pepiot has a good season, but his two departures against the Orioles were opposed. He started the 22-8 defeat and was eliminated in the second round. He also launched eight rounds of a round with 11 stick withdrawals during a Ray victory on June 16. What pepiot will we see this weekend? Well, it’s a fairly high guy, which makes me think that the Orioles will wade. But two of his last four departures have been disappointing, so maybe he is on a swing down.
