Shane Baz seeks consistency at home against the White Sox after a rough road outing
Baz enters the week coming off a difficult start where he allowed five runs in five innings, pushing his season ERA to 4.34. The fourth-place Orioles, who currently sit at 39-46, are leaning heavily on the 27-year-old right-hander as he slots in as the number three starter in a rotation severely thinned by injuries to Chris Bassitt and Zach Eflin. Despite the recent stumble, he had shown improved durability previously, completing seven innings in back-to-back starts in mid-June.
Under the hood, his current 1.41 WHIP is significantly higher than our season projection of 1.25, driven by an inflated hit rate over the last 30 days. However, his strikeout potential remains high, evidenced by a strong 10.50 K/9 over his last 14 days of work. While he recently expressed that he is leaving a lot on the table, his underlying pitch metrics—specifically a high-whiff knuckle curve—suggest he is due for positive regression toward his career averages.
Looking ahead, Baz is scheduled for a single start this week on Monday at home against the White Sox. He will match up against Sean Burke, who carries a 3.81 ERA and 1.25 WHIP through 85 innings. While the White Sox have a winning record at 43-39, Baz’s ability to generate swings and misses makes him a high-upside play in a week where he is projected for a 2.85 ERA over six innings. Start.
