Tosses quality start, earns win Young (3-1) earned the win Wednesday against the Marlins after allowing three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five across six innings.

Impact Young did just enough to record his first quality start of the season, but most importantly, he delivered a bounce-back performance after allowing 10 runs (four earned) in four frames against the Astros the last time out. This was also the first time Young pitched at least six innings in an outing, but the overall results have been far from attractive -- he has allowed at least three earned runs in each of his past three starts. Young will carry a 4.35 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB into his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for next week against the Yankees.

Impact Young was solid in his first two major-league starts, allowing just three runs over 10.2 innings. It was a drastically different story Thursday, however, as the Astros tagged the right-hander for five runs in the first inning and another four in the fourth. Despite the rough showing, Young figures to get at least one more look in Baltimore's rotation with Trevor Rogers (illness) and Dean Kramer (quadriceps) sidelined. He's tentatively lined up to face the Marlins on the road in his next outing.

Sticking around in rotation Young is slated to start Thursday's game against the Astros at Camden Yards.

Impact Young will end up sticking around with the Orioles for a second turn through the rotation after he was called up from Triple-A Norfolk last week in the wake of Dean Kremer (quadriceps) landing on the injured list. While stepping into Kremer's spot in the rotation Friday, Young earned a win while striking out five Red Sox batters and allowing three earned runs on seven hits and one walk. With Kremer due to miss multiple weeks, Young should have a decent amount of leash in the rotation so long as he continues to perform adequately.

Carried to win by offense Young (2-0) picked up the win Friday in a 10-3 rout of the Red Sox, giving up three runs on seven hits and a walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

Impact Called up Thursday to fill in for Dean Kremer (quadricep) in the rotation, Young tossed 65 of 93 pitches for strikes in a solid effort that was backed by a 20-hit, six-homer barrage from Baltimore's bats. The right-hander has gotten the job done in two spot starts this season, but he should get a longer runway this time with Kremer not expected back until at least mid-May. Young will take a 2.53 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB through 10.2 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next week against the Astros.

Recalled to make start Friday The Orioles recalled Young from Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday and he will start in Friday's game versus the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Young's promotion comes in a corresponding move to Dean Kremer (quad) being placed on the 15-day injured list, restrictive to April 20. Young has made two starts for Triple-A Norfolk since being optioned down following a spot start. In them, he surrendered earned run on one hit with a 15:3 K:BB across 11.2 innings.

Optioned after spot start The Orioles optioned Young to Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.

Impact Young tossed five shutout innings in a spot start Monday against the White Sox, but the Orioles will nonetheless replace him on the roster with reliever Nick Raquet. Baltimore could recall Dean Kremer from Norfolk when it needs a starter for this weekend against the Giants.

Delivers five shutout frames Young (1-0) earned the win Monday, allowing two hits and two walks over five scoreless innings against the White Sox. He struck out two.

Impact Young was called up from Triple-A Norfolk to make his first MLB start of the season and delivered strong results, holding the White Sox scoreless and picking up the win. The right-hander saw extended opportunities as a rookie last season but struggled, posting a 6.24 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 12 starts and 57.2 innings. With Zach Eflin (elbow) on the shelf and Young turning in a positive outing Monday, the 27-year-old could be in line for another start over the weekend, though Dean Kremer remains a viable alternative to enter the rotation.
