It looked like the Baltimore Orioles<\/a> found their new ace last season, but this year has painted a different picture.<\/p>\n

The Orioles acquired the New Mexico native from the Miami Marlins<\/a> in 2024, and he went 9-3 with a 1.81 ERA over 18 starts last season. However, he’s 2-3 with a 4.75 ERA over six starts so far this year, and now he’s not healthy.<\/p>\n

Baltimore announced roster moves involving Rogers on Wednesday, via social media.<\/p>\n

The Orioles recalled right-handed pitcher Cameron Foster<\/a> from Triple-A Norfolk and put Rogers on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to Sunday. The latter player has an illness, but the club hasn’t clarified<\/a> what the illness is, per The Baltimore Sun’s Jacob Calvin Meyer.<\/p>\n

Although it’s handy to have a starting pitcher log a sub-2.00 ERA, it was always unlikely that Rogers would sustain that production. The 2021 All-Star began the season with three quality starts, but he’s allowed 13 runs (12 earned) over 11.1 innings in the last three.<\/p>\n

With Rogers now out for the time being, Baltimore<\/a> needs the rest of its pitching staff to pick up the slack. One player who must take advantage of his opportunity is Foster, who has logged a 6.35 ERA over four appearances. The 27-year-old most recently threw two scoreless frames in a 10-3 win over the Boston Red Sox<\/a> on Friday.<\/p>\n

Foster was taken by the New York Mets<\/a> in 14th round of the 2022 MLB Draft, who traded him to the Orioles last July. The right-hander made his big-league debut in Baltimore’s 4-2 loss to the Cleveland Guardians<\/a> on April 16, in which he threw 1.2 scoreless innings.<\/p>\n

Foster, who is 13-11 with a 3.94 ERA over 85 career minor-league outings (26 starts), could make it hard for Baltimore to send him back down if he becomes a consistently reliable option out of the bullpen. At 14-15, the Orioles need all the pitching help they can get.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, starting pitchers Kyle Bradish<\/a> (1-3, 4.20 ERA), Shane Baz (1-2, 4.50 ERA), and Chris Bassitt<\/a> (1-2, 6.75 ERA) must improve their production in Rogers’ and Dean Kremer<\/a>‘s (quadriceps) absences. On the bright side, Baz allowed just one run over 5.2 innings in Tuesday’s 5-3 win over the Houston Astros<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Baltimore will host Houston in a doubleheader on Thursday, as Wednesday’s game was rained out. Bassitt will start the first game<\/a> and right-hander Brandon Young<\/a> (2-0, 2.53 ERA) will start the second, per The Baltimore Sun’s Matt Weyrich.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It looked like the Baltimore Orioles found their new ace last season, but this year has painted a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":686294,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2374],"tags":[143,47,2538,5,48,796,22025,82,51,913,2600,54,1510,58,4,61,125,3432,5144,85656,1362],"class_list":["post-686293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-baltimore-orioles","tag-baltimore","tag-baltimore-orioles","tag-baltimoreorioles","tag-baseball","tag-boston-red-sox","tag-brandon-young","tag-cameron-foster","tag-chris-bassitt","tag-cleveland-guardians","tag-dean-kremer","tag-era","tag-houston-astros","tag-kyle-bradish","tag-miami-marlins","tag-mlb","tag-new-york-mets","tag-orioles","tag-rogers","tag-shane-baz","tag-the-baltimore-sun","tag-the-orioles"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116490968432517073","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/686293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=686293"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/686293\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/686294"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=686293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=686293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=686293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
