Gausman (1-1) came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's loss to the Tigers, allowing two runs on nine hits over six innings while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander threw 64 of 97 pitches for strikes but got a little too much of the plate at times, as both runs came off solo shots by Jeimer Candelario and Miguel Cabrera. Gausman's now delivered two straight quality starts, shaving his ERA down to 5.57 in the process. He'll look to keep his momentum going Monday at home against Cleveland.

Gausman (1-1) allowed three runs on six hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over six innings in a win Wednesday over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman lasted into the sixth inning for the first time in three starts, a great sign for an Orioles team that will need him to go deeper in games as the year progresses. He generated 14 swinging strikes in 106 pitches, and that swing-and-miss ability was the key to Gausman's ability to work around three walks. Gausman still has an ugly 6.60 ERA, but this was a step in the right direction.

Gausman came away with a no-decision in Friday's extra-inning win over the Yankees, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk over five innings while striking out three.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander threw 61 of 96 pitches for strikes while generating 11 swinging strikes, and Gausman left the game in line for the win before Didi Gregorius launched a game-tying homer off Miguel Castro in the eighth inning. Gausman's 8.00 ERA in two starts isn't pretty, but he'll take a respectable 8:3 K:BB through nine innings into his next start Wednesday at home against the Blue Jays.

Gausman (0-1) gave up six runs on seven hits and two walks over four innings in Sunday's loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman's season debut didn't go well, as three of the seven hits he surrendered were home runs. Although he managed to log five strikeouts, Minnesota was able to reach base and score with ease, keeping Gausman from reaching the five-inning mark. While hopes remain intact that he can approach his 2016 form, in which he posted a 3.61 ERA and 1.28 WHIP over 30 starts, Sunday's lackluster effort remains a disappointment. Gausman will look to get on track when he takes the mound Friday against the Yankees.

Gausman will toe the rubber for Sunday's series finale against Minnesota, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman will follow Dylan Bundy and Andrew Cashner in the rotation for the Orioles' opening series. During 34 starts with the team last year, he posted a 4.68 ERA and 1.49 WHIP with a 179:71 K:BB over a career-high 186.2 innings.

Gausman (head) threw three shutout innings and struck out five batters Saturday against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman didn't show any signs of being bothered by the collision he was involved in last week, as he tossed three perfect innings Saturday. This was a significant improvement over his first game of the spring, during which he gave up five runs on six hits and a walk over a mere 1.1 innings.

Gausman (head) is still scheduled to start Saturday's spring game against the Phillies, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander was a little banged up after colliding with Jeimer Candelario in Monday's contest, but it seems like the issues won't take him off his original pitching schedule. Gausman escaped the incident with just cuts and bruises (i.e. no concussion), so this likely won't hamper him once the regular season rolls around.

Gausman passed concussion tests after being removed from Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers following a collision, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman collided with Jeimer Candelario, the on-deck hitter, while backing up home plate. He was cut and bruised near his left eye and suffered a sore back but avoided more serious injury. He doesn't expect to be significantly delayed in his preseason preparations, so consider him good to go for the regular season barring unforeseen complications.

Gausman was removed from Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers after colliding with a player behind home plate, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Specifics regarding the injury remain unclear, but Gausman apparently hurt himself after colliding with Jeimer Candelario, who was on-deck. It looked like he was being checked for a concussion before exiting the field with trainers. More should be known about his status once the team is able to further evaluate him.

Gausman will try out a new sinker grip Monday against the Tigers, Eduardo A. Encina of The Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gausman used a sinker occasionally in the first four years of his career, but didn't throw the pitch at all in 2017. He learned a different grip from new teammate Andrew Cashner this spring and will test it out in the Grapefruit League. Gausman has given up 57 home runs over the past two seasons, tied for 11th-most in the league, so a new sinker could be a valuable weapon. It's unknown yet whether the pitch will be effective for him, but new pitches can often help pitchers reach a new level, so if early reports are positive, consider increasing Gausman's price by at least a little bit.
