Cedric Mullins - Registers sixth steal Mullins went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 8-7 win over the Athletics.

Impact Mullins has mostly hit leadoff this year, but he batted ninth Tuesday and sat out Wednesday. The outfielder's place at the top of the order may be tenuous, as he's hitting .184, but his 6:19 BB:K and six steals through 13 games show that his plate discipline and speed are just fine. He may sit occasionally versus southpaws, but he should still play in a vast majority of the Orioles' games.

Félix Bautista - Collects first win Bautista (1-1) struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the win Thursday over the Athletics.

Impact Bautista kept the game tied at 7-7 in the top of the ninth inning, and Adley Rutschman delivered a walkoff solo home run in the bottom of the frame. This was Bautista's fourth straight scoreless outing after he opened the year allowing four runs (one earned) over his first 1.2 innings. He's 3-for-4 in save chances with a 12:2 K:BB, 1.59 ERA and 1.06 WHIP through 5.2 innings overall.

Austin Hays - Another multi-hit game Hays went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Athletics.

Impact It's the third multi-hit performance for Hays' in his last four games. The 28-year-old outfielder had quite a series against the A's, going 9-for-17 with two doubles and two home runs. Hays is now slashing .340/.380/.638 through his first 47 at-bats this season. He should have some upside for fantasy purposes this year, hitting in the middle of an improved Orioles lineup.

Jorge Mateo - Swipes seventh bag Mateo went 0-for-3 with two RBI and a steal in Thursday's 8-7 win over the Athletics.

Impact Mateo now leads the MLB with seven stolen bases early in the season after stealing 35 last year, second to only Jon Berti. Mateo has gotten off to a decent start with the bat as well, going 10-for-35 with two home runs. He's up to eight RBI after driving in a pair of runs Thursday.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ryan Mountcastle - Adds another homer Mountcastle went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 8-7 victory over Oakland.

Impact Mountcastle led off the fourth inning with a solo shot off Adam Oller, tying the game 4-4. The 24-year-old first baseman has six homers on the season, including four in his last three games, tying him with Pete Alonso for the MLB lead. Mountcastle is slashing .261/.314/.468 with a league-leading 19 RBI through 53 at-bats to start the year.

Yennier Cano - Added to big-league bullpen Cano was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Cano made his big-league debut in 2022 but struggled to an 11.50 ERA and 2.33 WHIP across 18 innings split between the Twins and Orioles. He failed to secure a spot in the big-league bullpen to begin 2023, but he'll have at least a short-term opportunity with Keegan Akin (personal) sidelined.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Spenser Watkins - Back in Baltimore Watkins was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Watkins failed to make the big-league club out of spring training, though he's had a solid start at Norfolk by allowing only three earned runs across 10 frames and two starts. He's likely to pitch out of the bullpen in Baltimore, but he could be in line for spot starts.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Cole Irvin - Optioned after poor start Irvin was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday,Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Irvin allowed six earned runs across only four innings against the Athletics -- his former team -- Thursday. After three turns through the rotation this season, he carried a 10.66 ERA and had a disastrous 5.7 BB/9 and 1.4 HR/9. He'll likely be back in the big-league rotation at some point during the campaign, but he'll have to sort things out in the minors in the meantime. In the short term, the move likely means that both Kyle Bradish (foot) and Grayson Rodriguez will stick in the starting five.

APRIL 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Keegan Akin - Placed on paternity list Akin was placed on the paternity list Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Akin has appeared in six games out of the bullpen this season and has allowed four earned runs as well as eight hits across 4.1 innings. He'll be away from the team for at least Friday's game against the White Sox, though he could miss the entire weekend series.

Adley 'Clutchman' Rutschman hits first walk-off; did an ABC hit comedy predict it? It was Adley Rutschman's first over-the-wall walk-off at any level. And it was fictionalized the night before on "Abbott Elementary."

Anthony Bemboom - Accepts assignment to Triple-A Bemboom cleared waivers Thursday and accepted an assignment to Triple-A Norfolk, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Bemboom passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment by the Orioles. The 33-year-old catcher owns a career .158/.233/.262 batting line in 206 plate appearances at the major-league level.

Adley Rutschman - First career walk-off Rutschman went 1-for-5 with a home run in Thursday's 8-7 victory over the Athletics.

The homer was Rutschman's fourth of the season and extended his hitting streak to seven games. The young catcher is off to a torrid start in his sophomore campaign, slashing .373/.467/.627 with nine runs and nine RBIs through 51 at-bats.
