Orioles manager Buck Showalter is undecided on his ALDS Game 4 starter. It will either be Chris Tillman or Joe Saunders. It's Tillman's turn in the rotation, but Saunders, who tossed 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball in the Wild Card win over the Rangers, would be on regular rest. Both pitchers are available to pitch in relief, if need be, in Game 3.

Chris Tillman will start Wednesday against the Rays. The Orioles were considering pushing their hottest starter back, but they'll go for the division title Wednesday and hope the Yankees lose. Tillman has given up just two runs in three starts after coming back from a minor elbow injury.

The Baltimore Sun believes Chris Tillman could be pushed back to start a potential one-game wild card playoff next Friday. Tillman's regular turn is Wednesday, so if no postseason implications are involved, he could be a candidate to start the Orioles' first playoff game. Jason Hammel (knee) is scheduled to throw four to six innings in a simulated game early next week, and is also under consideration.

Chris Tillman delivered a phenomenal outing in Friday's win over the Red Sox, allowing just one unearned run on one hit over six strong innings. Tillman walked two and struck out four in the critical O's victory. The only damage came on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Dustin Pedroia in the first inning. Over his last five starts, Tillman has been simply remarkable, posting a 3-0 record, 1.29 ERA and 0.79 WHIP over 28 innings. He'll look to extend that recent dominance when he takes on the Rays in Tampa for the regular season finale on Wednesday.

Chris Tillman held the Red Sox to one run over six innings Sunday in a no-decision against Boston. That's the same outing he had Monday in his return to Baltimore's rotation. AL-only leaguers will want him active this week when he faces Boston at home on Friday or Saturday.

Chris Tillman pitched six innings of one-run ball to beat the Mariners in his return to Baltimore's rotation. It was Tillman's first start in 15 days after he left his Sept. 2 outing with elbow stiffness, and he stepped up in a big way in Jason Hammel's place. He displayed no control woes, and he allowed just three hits, though one of them was a Michael Saunders homer.

Chris Tillman returned to action on Monday September 17.

Chris Tillman (elbow) will rejoin the Orioles' rotation Monday in Seattle. Tillman hasn't pitched since leaving a start against the Yankees with elbow soreness, but with Jason Hammel (knee) out, he's getting another shot. The right will be followed by Wei-Yin Chen and Joe Saunders.

Chris Tillman (elbow) threw a successful bullpen session on Thursday, but hasn't yet been told when he'll return to the Orioles' rotation. Manager Buck Showalter hasn't announced his rotation past Saturday yet. It's possible that if Jason Hammel isn't good enough to go, that Tillman could assume his spot in the rotation on Monday against the Mariners in Seattle.

Chris Tillman (elbow) is set to rejoin the Orioles' rotation this weekend in Oakland. It's not clear yet which game he'll start, but he was the obvious choice to slide into Jason Hammel's (knee) rotation spot. Tillman threw a successful bullpen session Tuesday, as it appears his elbow issue is no longer a problem.
