Sharp in win No. 10 Kremer (10-4) picked up the win Friday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over six innings in a 5-2 victory over the Marlins. He struck out eight.

Impact The right-hander generated 30 called or swinging strikes among his 97 pitches en route to his ninth quality start of the year. Kremer has had some issues keeping the ball in the park lately, but that's been the only thing standing between him and a true breakout. In eight starts since the beginning of June he's posted a 4.60 ERA and 2.2 HR/9, but also a 1.18 WHIP and 52:10 K:BB through 45 innings. He lines up for a tough test in his next outing, which is likely to come at home next week against the Dodgers.

Dominant in ninth win Kremer (9-4) earned the win Wednesday, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and a walk over seven innings against the Yank ees. He struck out 10.

Impact It was quite a bounce-back from Kremer after he allowed seven runs in just three innings in his last start against the Twins. The 27-year-old right-hander set a new season-high with 10 strikeouts while allowing just one earned run on Josh Donaldson's solo homer in the fifth inning. Kremer lowered his ERA to 4.78 with a 1.37 WHIP and 92:25 K:BB across 18 starts (98 innings) this season in what'll likely be his last start before the All-Star break.

Tripped up by Twins Kremer (8-4) took the loss Friday as the Orioles were routed 8-1 by the Twins, surrendering seven runs on seven hits and two walks over three-plus innings. He struck out five.

Impact The game started nearly an hour and a half late due to rain, and Kremer never seemed comfortable once he got on the mound, giving up single runs in the first and second innings before Minnesota really started to pile it on. The right-hander had real trouble keeping the ball in the park in June -- he served up homers to Joey Gallo and Max Kepler on Friday, and through six starts and 32 innings on the month he got tagged for 10 homers, leading to a 5.91 ERA despite a sharp 34:7 K:BB. That's an ominous trend heading into his last outing before the All-Star break, which is likely to come on the road next week at Yankee Stadium.

Goes season-high seven innings Kremer did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk over seven innings in a 6-4 win over Seattle. He struck out five.

Impact Kremer retired the first seven hitters he faced before surrendering a solo homer to Mike Ford in the top of the third, followed by another solo homer to J.P. Crawford just two batters later. The right-hander would be victimized by the long ball yet again to open the sixth, this time at the hand of Julio Rodriguez as Seattle tied the game at 3-3. However, Kremer was still able to go a season-high seven innings and notch his third quality start in his last five appearances. He'll look for his ninth win next week when the Orioles take on the Twins in Baltimore.

Picks up eighth win Kremer (8-3) earned the win Sunday against the Cubs after he allowed three runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out seven.

Impact The right-hander surrendered two homers Sunday, but Christopher Morel's two-run in the fourth inning was unearned due to a two-out error. It's the second straight victory for Kremer, who has allowed fewer than three runs and covered at least five frames in eight of his past nine starts. He'll carry a 4.56 ERA into his next outing, which is likely to come next weekend versus Seattle.

JUNE 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Notches seventh win Kremer (7-3) earned the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on eight hits over six innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out six.

Impact It was a solid bounce-back effort from Kremer after he allowed six runs in a loss to Milwaukee in his last outing. While the 27-year-old Kremer's record is impressive, he still sports a mediocre 4.74 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP and 65:19 K:BB through 14 starts (76 innings) this season. His 47 percent hard-hit rate also ranks in the bottom ninth percentile in the league. Still, Kremer has provided some stability in the Orioles' rotation. He's currently in line to face the Cubs on the road this weekend.

JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Falls flat in loss Kremer (6-3) took the loss against Milwaukee on Wednesday, allowing six runs on nine hits and no walks while striking out five batters over five innings.

Impact Kremer had been pitching well coming into the contest, posting a 2.55 ERA and 1.27 WHIP across 35.1 innings over his previous six starts. He couldn't maintain that momentum against Milwaukee, surrendering a season-high six runs and lasting just five frames. Kremer's next start is tentatively scheduled to come at home against Toronto.

JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Adds another victory Kremer (6-2) earned the win Friday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over six innings against San Francisco. He struck out six.

Impact Kremer had a terrible April, posting a 6.67 ERA, but he has lowered it down to 4.43 with six consecutive starts of at least five innings while allowing three runs or less. With the Orioles surprising success, Kremer has racked up victories. He is two wins away from his career high of eight. While he is not going to provide elite strikeout numbers, his K/9 has jumped from 6.25 last season to 7.48 in 2023. Kremer is scheduled to face the Brewers in his next start.

JUNE 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Stuck with loss in quality start Kremer (5-2) took the loss Saturday, giving up three runs on five hits and two walks over 6.1 innings as the Orioles fell 5-3 to the Rangers. He struck out five.

Impact The right-hander came through with his fourth quality start of the season but got outdueled by Andrew Heaney. Kremer hasn't been tagged for more than three runs in a start in the entire month of May, posting a 2.45 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 23:8 K:BB through 29.1 innings over that five-start stretch. He'll try to keep up that level of performance to kick off June, with his next start likely coming next weekend in San Francisco.

MAY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sevens strikeouts in no-decision Kremer did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing one run on nine hits and two walks over 5.1 innings during an 8-3 win over the Blue Jays in extras. He struck out seven.

Impact Kremer allowed one or fewer runs for the fourth time this year and struck out a season-high seven batters Sunday. Across 10 starts (52.2 innings), the 27-year-old holds a solid 43:15 K:BB but has a 4.61 ERA. Last year, Kremer posted a 3.23 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 87:34 K:BB across 22 appearances (21 starts). He'll look to lower his ERA for a third straight game during his next start, which is tentatively scheduled during a three-game weekend set versus Texas.

MAY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Notches fifth win Kremer (5-1) earned the win Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits over 5.2 innings against the Angels. He struck out four.

Impact Kremer has won three straight outings, allowing four runs through 17.2 innings in that span. After a rough start to the season, the 27-year-old Kremer now sports a 4.63 ERA with a 1.42 WHIP and 36:13 K:BB. He'll look to extend his winning streak in his next outing, tentatively lined up for this weekend in Toronto.

MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up fourth win Kremer (4-1) got the win over the Rays on Wednesday after pitching six shutout innings while allowing four hits and two walks. He struck out four in the effort.

Impact Kremer quieted a dangerous Rays offense and has now allowed just one run over his last 12 innings pitched. He got 11 swinging strikes on 95 pitches and finally got his ERA under 5 after he was roughed up with a 6.67 ERA across his first six starts. The 27-year-old will carry a 4.97 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 32:13 K:BB over 41.2 innings into a projected home matchup against the Angels next week.

MAY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in win column Kremer (3-1) allowed one run on six hits and two walks over six innings Friday, striking out three and earning a win over Atlanta.

Impact Kremer coughed up a run in the first inning before settling in for a nice quality start. Despite recording just three punchouts, he forced a season-high 15 swinging strikes. Kremer lowered his ERA to 5.80 through 35.2 frames. He's given up at least four runs in five of his seven starts, though he's yielded just one run in a combined 12.2 innings in the other two. Kremer is projected to face the Rays at home next week.

Hit with first loss Kremer (2-1) took the loss in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Tigers as the Orioles fell 7-4. He coughed up five runs on 11 hits and walks over five innings w...

Impact Nine of the hits were singles and Kremer kept the ball in the park, but the poor result can't be dismissed as just bad luck. The right-hander has given up at least four runs in five of his six starts so far this season, and his 6.67 ERA and 1.58 WHIP through 29.2 innings could put his rotation spot in jeopardy, although Baltimore doesn't seem to have any obvious alternatives at the moment with DL Hall still trying to sharpen his control at Triple-A. Kremer will try to minimize the damage in his next outing, but that could be a tall order as it currently lines up to come next weekend in Atlanta.

Hangs on for second win Kremer (2-0) picked up the win Monday, giving up four runs on seven hits and a walk over 5.2 innings in a 5-4 victory over the Red Sox. He struck out five.

Impact The right-hander had a rocky start to the game and dug the O's a 4-0 hole after three innings, serving up long homers to Triston Casas and Rafael Devers along the way, but Kremer regained his focus over the next few frames and gave his offense a chance to wake up. While his undefeated record is nice, the 27-year-old will take a less appealing 6.20 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 19:7 K:BB through 24.2 innings into his next start, likely to come this weekend in Detroit.

Impact Kremer had no issues with the Nationals' lineup Tuesday, allowing just four singles as he picked up his first win of the season. It's a solid bounce-back outing for Kremer, who allowed 13 runs over his first three starts this year. The 27-year-old right-hander lowers his ERA to 6.16 with a 1.37 WHIP and 14:6 K:BB in 19 innings.

Gives up four in loss Kremer did not factor into the decision on Wednesday against the Athletics, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out one.

Impact Kremer had another tough start, allowing a three-run homer to Brent Rooker in the first inning and a solo shot to Carlos Perez in the fifth. The 27-year-old righty struggled with his command, throwing 52 of his 90 pitches for strikes. Kremer has given up five home runs and six walks in three games this season, resulting in a 9.49 ERA through 12.1 innings. He will look to turn things around in his next start, scheduled tentatively for early next week against the Nationals.
