Baker (1-0) was credited with the win Saturday against the Blue Jays despite allowing one run on one hit and one walk in one inning. He struck out one.
EDGE Analysis
Baker replaced Keegan Akin in the sixth inning, recording three outs in the frame before giving up a Nathan Lukes leadoff double in the seventh. Baker was immediately pulled for Yennier Cano, who allowed the inherited runner to score on a Bo Bichette groundout. Baker has zero holds or save opportunities in 2025, so he holds very little fantasy appeal in most formats despite producing a 1.29 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 8:1 K:BB over seven innings to begin the season.

EDGE Analysis
Baker made two appearances after returning to Baltimore's bullpen Sept. 18, giving up two earned runs in 2.1 innings while recording five strikeouts. He'll now head to the team's spring training facility in Florida to finish up the season, and Tucker Davidson will come up from Triple-A Norfolk to replenish Baltimore's bullpen depth.

Baker was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Baker logged a scoreless inning Friday and he could be summoned back to the majors the next time Baltimore needs a fresh bullpen arm. Cade Povich was recalled in a corresponding move to start Saturday.

The Orioles optioned Baker to Triple-A Norfolk following Saturday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Baker was initially recalled by the Orioles on Thursday. In his lone outing Saturday against San Diego, the 29-year-old right-hander allowed one run on two hits while striking out one in one inning. The move makes room on the 26-man roster for right-hander Zach Eflin, whom Baltimore acquired from Tampa Bay on Friday.

The Orioles recalled Baker from Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He was just sent down Wednesday, but because he's replacing an injured player in Jorge Mateo (elbow), Baker is eligible to be recalled. The right-hander has posted a 4.32 ERA and 13:5 K:BB over 16.2 innings in 13 relief appearances this season for Baltimore.

The Orioles optioned Baker to Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Baker has posted a 4.32 ERA and 13:5 K:BB over 16.2 frames in 13 relief appearances this season for Baltimore. The transaction frees up a roster spot for Chayce McDermott, who was called up from Triple-A to start Wednesday's contest in Miami.

Baker (1-1) allowed three runs on a hit and two walks while striking out two over two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss Thursday versus the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Baker loaded the bases in the seventh inning, and Keegan Akin couldn't prevent J.P. Crawford from unloading them with a three-run double. The Orioles didn't recover from that, sending Baker to his first loss of the season. The right-hander posted a five-inning scoreless streak upon his promotion from Triple-A Norfolk, but he's since given up seven runs over his last 5.2 innings. He's added three holds and an 8:3 K:BB this season, but he's unlikely to fill anything more than a low-leverage role.

Baker (1-0) allowed a hit and a walk while striking out one over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the win over the Yankees on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Baker has covered five scoreless innings across four appearances since he was brought up from Triple-A Norfolk. He's posted a 2:1 K:BB while adding two holds, which suggests he's an option to see some high-leverage work while Danny Coulombe (elbow) is out for the next couple of months. Baker had a 6.55 ERA over 22 innings with Norfolk prior to his call-up, but he added five saves for the minor-league club.
