The Orioles are going to give Kremer an extra day of rest this week by pushing him back to Wednesday’s finale against the Twins. He’ll take the ball on six days of rest for that one. No word yet on the club’s plans for Tuesday’s start, but it’ll likely be a bullpen game of some sort.

Kremer struck out just two and gave up 12 hard-hit balls tonight, but he allowed only a double and two singles. His velocity was actually down about one mph from where he’s typically sat this year, so we don’t see much of anything to be encouraged about here. He’ll take a 3-4 record and a 5.73 ERA into his next start versus the Twins.

The right-hander also issued four walks on the day while striking out three. He had allowed just two runs through the first four innings — a two-run double by Javier Baez in the second — but the Tigers added another in the fifth and two more while chasing Kremer in the sixth inning. The 29-year-old hurler got six whiffs on 97 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 20 percent. He’ll bring a miserable 7.04 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 20/8 K/BB ratio (30 2/3 innings) into Saturday’s matchup against the Royals.

Kremer gave up the six hardest-hit balls of the game, all of them over 105 mph. They accounted for six hits and 15 total bases. The Orioles probably aren’t going to be able to do any better than Kremer in the near future, but this is yet another spot in their rotation that’s turned into a significant problem. Kremer is 2-3 with a 6.84 ERA ahead of his next start in Detroit.
