Rougned Odor - Sitting out Game 1 Odor will sit Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Blue Jays, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Jordan Lyles - Not starting Wednesday Lyles isn't scheduled to start either game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Blue Jays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact The 31-year-old's final turn through the rotation lined up for Wednesday, but Mike Baumann and Spenser Watkins will instead start the final two games of the campaign for Baltimore. Lyles has been a solid innings eater for the Orioles this year with a 4.42 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 144:52 K:BB across 179 innings (32 starts), and that's where his numbers will finish for 2022 barring an appearance out of the bullpen.
OCTOBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Spenser Watkins - Will start season finale Watkins is scheduled to start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Blue Jays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Watkins last pitched Saturday out of the bullpen and covered three innings against the Yankees, and he'll return on three days rest to start the final game of the regular season. The 30-year-old produced a 3.80 ERA across his first 14 outings of the season but has surrendered 27 runs over his past 38 innings, and he'll look to finish the campaign on a high note Wednesday.

Mike Baumann - Tuesday's game postponed Baumann won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Blue Jays since the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact The 27-year-old was scheduled to make his final start of the season Tuesday but will instead have the outing pushed back a day. The game will be made up via a doubleheader Wednesday, and Baumann will start Game 2 of the twin bill, per Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com.

Rougned Odor - Not starting Tuesday Odor will sit Tuesday against the Blue Jays, Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Odor spent much of the year starting against righties while sitting against lefties, but his off day here against Mitch White means he's now been on the bench against three of the last four righties the Orioles have faced. Terrin Vavra, who has a better chance of helping the team next season, will again get the start at second base.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kyle Stowers - Not in lineup Stowers will sit Tuesday against Toronto, Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Stowers has hit a passable .253/.309/.414 (107 wRC+) with three homers in 33 games in his first taste of big-league action this season. Anthony Santander will be the right fielder Tuesday.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Mountcastle - Heads to bench Mountcastle is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Blue Jays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Mountcastle is hitting .263 with four runs and four RBI over the last 10 games. Jesus Aguilar draws a rare start at first base while Anthony Santander gets the nod at designated hitter.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jorge Mateo - Nabs 35th steal Mateo went 1-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Blue Jays.
Impact With his third-inning pilfer, Mateo moved one ahead of teammate Cedric Mullins for the American League league in stolen bases with 35. Mateo's first full season in the majors has been a mixed bag -- he's flashed some power in addition to his speed but also been extremely streaky, leaving him with a .221/.267/.379 slash line through 524 plate appearances. The 27-year-old should get a chance to develop some consistency to go along with his tools in 2023, but it's not clear whether that chance will come at shortstop or another position as the O's try to find a defensive home for top prospect Gunnar Henderson.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Dean Kremer - Stuck with seventh loss Kremer (8-7) took the loss Monday as the Orioles were downed 5-1 by the Blue Jays, giving up four runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out four.
Impact The right-hander barely qualified for his eighth quality start of the year, but he wasn't hit all that hard aside from a third-inning solo shot by Vladimir Guerrero. Kremer wraps up a breakout season with a 3.23 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 87:34 K:BB through 125.1 innings, and he should head into 2023 locked into a rotation spot for Baltimore.
