RICHARD BLEIER NEWS

Dealt first loss Bleier (1-1) allowed a run on one hit while striking out a batter in 0.2 innings of work as he was handed the loss Friday against the Rays.

Impact Bleier was removed in the eighth with two outs and a man on second in favor of Brad Boxberger as he figured to be the better pitching matchup for the righty Yandy Diaz. Unfortunately, Boxberger was unable to get the job done as he yielded an RBI single to put the Rays up 1-0. Bleier was charged with the earned run and was ultimately handed the loss as he has shown some struggles recently on the mound. The lefty has given up three runs in his last 1.1 innings after chucking 6.1 scoreless to start the year, and despite his latest struggles, Bleier should still be in the mix for late-inning work.

Traded to Marlins Bleier was traded from the Orioles to the Marlins on Friday in exchange for a player to be named later.

Impact Bleier had made two appearances for Baltimore to begin the season, tossing three scoreless innings while allowing one hit and striking out four. The southpaw should immediately take on a prominent role in the Marlins' bullpen with their roster depleted in the midst of their COVID-19 outbreak.

Could see save chances vs. lefties Orioles pitching coach Doug Brocail said Sunday that Bleier could be in the mix to see save chances against left-handed-heavy lineups, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Brocail said that the Orioles haven't named a closer, but he noted that Hunter Harvey and Mychal Givens are the top candidates to handle save opportunities. The left-handed Bleier, meanwhile, will likely be used on a more situational basis, as opposing right-handed hitters own a career .329 wOBA against him compared to lefty hitters' .258 mark. Even if Bleier finds his way to a few saves, his lowly 4.3 K/9 career rate renders him rather unappealing for fantasy purposes.
