Yennier Cano - Notches fourth save Cano earned a save against the Yankees on Thursday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk while striking out one batter over one inning.
Impact Felix Bautista was presumably unavailable after pitching each of the previous two days, so Cano was called upon to close out the contest with Baltimore up 3-0 in the ninth. The right-hander uncharacteristically allowed a run to score but nonetheless managed to finish off the win. The run was just the second Cano has allowed over 26.2 innings on the campaign, and he also issued his first free pass of the season, so this was one of the few times he's looked mortal in what has been a dominant effort thus far. Bautista has been outstanding as well as the Orioles' closer, thus Cano's save chances will likely continue to be limited to instances when Bautista is unavailable.

Kyle Gibson - Handles Yankees on Thursday Gibson (6-3) earned the win over the Yankees on Thursday, pitching seven scoreless inning during which he allowed two hits and four walks while striking out three batters.
Impact Gibson didn't have his best control Thursday -- he threw just 56 of 96 pitches for a strike and walked a season-high four batters -- but he negated the impact of the wildness by allowing just two hits (both singles). The right-hander notched his sixth quality start of the campaign, three of which have come over his past four outings. Gibson has worked as the ace for a thriving Orioles squad, posting six wins and a 3.82 ERA through 11 starts.

Ramón Urías - Aims for weekend return Urias (hamstring) is aiming to return from the injured list this weekend, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Urias will likely get his wish if he makes it through another rehab game or two without issue. He drew three walks and scored a pair of runs in his rehab debut Wednesday with High-A Aberdeen. The 28-year-old infielder has been sidelined since May 8 because of a left hamstring strain.

Dillon Tate - Decision coming soon Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Thursday that a decision on Tate (forearm) is coming "sometime soon," Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Tate's rehab window has come to a close, so he either has to be activated from the injured list or optioned to Triple-A Norfolk. The 29-year-old is recovered from his offseason forearm strain but has surrendered 15 runs -- 13 earned -- in 8.1 innings of relief between three different levels of the O's minor-league system. That works out to a 14.04 ERA.

Cedric Mullins - Out for personal reasons Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Mullins is out of the lineup Thursday for personal reasons, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Hyde noted that it should just be a one-day absence. Ryan McKenna is starting in center field and Adam Frazier will take a turn in the leadoff role as the O's wrap up their three-game series at Yankee Stadium on Thursday night.

Mike Baumann - Collects another win Baumann (4-0) pitched a perfect inning and earned the win Wednesday over the Yankees.
Impact Baumann entered for what appeared to be a low-leverage assignment with the Orioles down four runs in the sixth inning. They rallied for eight runs in the top of the seventh and held on to put Baumann in line for the win, his second in as many appearances. The right-hander has kept runs off the board in six of his last eight outings, though a 10:7 K:BB over 8.1 innings in that span isn't inspiring. He's at a 3.81 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 27:13 K:BB through 26 innings this season.

Adam Frazier - Swats sixth homer Frazier went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 9-6 win over the Yankees.
Impact With the Orioles down 5-1 in the top of the seventh inning, Frazier got the comeback started by clanking a Nestor Cortes fastball off the right-field foul pole. It's Frazier's sixth homer of the season and third in the last nine games, a stretch in which he's batting .353 (12-for-34) with seven runs and nine RBI.

Ryan Mountcastle - Mashes 11th homer Moiuntcastle went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 9-6 win over the Yankees.
Impact His solo shot off Nestor Cortes in the fourth inning got the Orioles on the board. Mountcastle has 11 homers on the season, including three in the last eight games, but after a hot start to May he's batting only .146 (6-for-41) over the last 11 contests.

Félix Bautista - Notches 12th save Bautista walked one and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday to record his 12th save of the season in a 9-6 win over the Yankees.
Impact The big right-hander fanned multiple batters for the seventh straight appearance, although he also issued a free pass for the fourth time in his last five games. Bautista's 1.44 ERA on the season is impressive, and his 47.2 percent strikeout rate is second in the majors to Cincinnati's Alexis Diaz, but his 16.0 percent walk rate has led to four blown saves and a 1.24 WHIP.

Tyler Wells - Escapes with no-decision Wednesday Wells didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 9-6 comeback win over the Yankees, surrendering five runs on five hits -- including three home runs -- and two walks over five...
Impact Gleyber Torres took him deep twice and Isiah Kiner-Falefa added a two-run shot in the fifth inning, but Wells got taken off the hook for his second loss when the Orioles erupted for eight runs in the seventh. The right-hander's 3.47 ERA and 0.84 WHIP on the season have been excellent, but they hide a 5.02 FIP and unsightly 2.05 HR/9 -- he's served up 13 homers in only 57 innings. Wells lines up to next take the mound early next week at home against the Guardians.
