Game 162 canceled Baz will not start in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Yankees due to inclement weather, and the game will not be rescheduled.

Impact Sunday's game didn't carry much meaning, given that the Yankees are locked in as the No. 4 seed in the American League playoffs and the Orioles are eliminated from postseason contention. Baz will end the 2026 regular season with a 6-15 record across 31 starts and a 4.11 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 154:63 K:BB over a career-high 179.2 innings.

Settles in during no-decision Baz did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks over 6.2 innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out two.

Impact Baz was jumped on early, surrendering three runs in the first frame, but he settled in and churned out a quality start. The right-hander was removed from his previous start Tuesday versus the Mets after being struck in the elbow by a comebacker, but making his turn in the rotation and operating with a normal workload suggests it's a non-issue. With an overall 6-15 record, 4.11 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 154:63 K:BB across 179.2 innings (31 starts), Baz is lined up to toe the slab Sunday against the Yankees to close the regular season.

Poised to start Monday Baz (elbow) is scheduled to start Monday's game against the Blue Jays, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Impact The right-hander was removed from his previous start Tuesday versus the Mets after being struck in the elbow by a comebacker, but he's ready to make his next turn through the rotation. Baz has surrendered eight runs on 13 hits with a 7:3 K:BB in his past two starts, which has inflated his season-long numbers to a 4.11 ERA and 1.35 WHIP through 30 starts.

Struck by comebacker Baz was removed from Tuesday's game against the Mets after getting hit on the elbow by a comebacker, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Baz took a 105-mph line drive off his right elbow in the fifth inning, and after his warm-up pitch sailed over the head of the catcher, the Orioles made the call to take him out of the game. He'll presumably undergo imaging to determine whether he suffered a fracture, and the team may provide an update on his status in the near future.

Back in win column Baz (6-15) was credited with the win against the Guardians on Wednesday, allowing five runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five across 5.2 innings.

Impact Baz was looking to build off his last outing against the Red Sox on Friday, when he allowed just one run across 6.1 frames while taking the loss. He didn't have his best stuff Wednesday, putting the Orioles in an early deficit by yielding a two-run homer to Chase DeLauter in the first inning. However, his Orioles teammates had his back by scoring eight runs in the third inning, which was enough for Baz to come away with the win despite giving up another three runs in the sixth. The five runs he allowed tied a season high he set four times prior to Wednesday's contest, and he sits at a 4.05 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 150:58 K:BB over 169 innings. Baz is lined up to face the Mets on the road next week.

Tough-luck loss against Boston Baz (5-15) took the loss against the Red Sox on Friday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out six across 6.1 innings.

Impact A solo homer by Boston's Mickey Gasper in the first inning was the only run that the Red Sox scored off Baz and the Orioles. Unfortunately for Baz, his Orioles teammates couldn't get on the board themselves, resulting in the 10th loss this season that the right-hander has taken in starts in which he's allowed three earned runs or less. He has only five wins to his name this season despite posting a respectable 3.91 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 145:57 K:BB over 163.1 innings. Baz is lined up to face the Guardians at home next week, in what is shaping up to be a key series in the race for the AL Wild Card.

Snaps long losing streak Saturday Baz (5-14) earned the win over the Athletics on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four batters over 5.2 innings.

Impact Baz breezed through his first five innings, and Baltimore's offense staked him to a 4-0 lead. The righty faded in the sixth, giving up two runs on two hits, two walks and a hit-by-pitch before he was pulled with two outs and the bases loaded. Reliever Alex Hoppe avoided further damage, and Baz went on to record his first victory since June 12. During his 12-start winless stretch, Baz went 0-8, though he pitched to a respectable 3.35 ERA over seven starts at home and a tolerable 4.02 ERA overall during that span. He'll try to build a winning streak his next time out, which is slated to be a matchup in Baltimore against Boston.
