Dean Kremer's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Baltimore Orioles placed right-hander Dean Kremer (triceps) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to May 21) on Friday with a right-triceps strain and recalled pitchers Dillon Tate and Nick Vespi from Triple-A Norfolk in corresponding moves. Additionally, pitcher Jonathan Heasley was optioned to Norfolk. The Orioles placed lefty John Means (forearm) on the IL on Thursday, so Baltimore's rotation depth has taken a big hit this week. It is unclear if the 28-year-old Kremer will be able to return to the rotation when he's eligible in early June. Kremer has been serviceable in his nine starts this year, going 3-4 with a 4.32 ERA and 1.12 WHIP with 49 strikeouts and 18 walks over 50 innings pitched. It's unclear who might take Kremer's spot in the big-league rotation, but Albert Suarez feels like the best bet.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Dean Kremer struck out six in a dominating fashion on Sunday in the 11-1 win against the Cincinnati Reds. Kremer continued racking up the strikeouts while recording his third-straight win, moving to 3-2 on the season. He pitched six scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and a walk while striking out six. Kremer holds a 3.57 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and a 37:11 K: BB in seven starts. Since getting torched for eight runs by the Brewers on April 13, Kremer has bounced back and allowed seven runs (2.63 ERA) over his previous four starts (24 innings). The 28-year-old next projected start is against the Arizona Diamondbacks, who have had more difficulties against right-handed pitchers this season, making Kremer a solid streamer in most league formats.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Dean Kremer tossed seven innings of two-run ball on Tuesday against the New York Yankees en route to his second victory of the season. Kremer's damage came from two solo home runs, one from backstop Austin Wells in the third inning and the other off outfielder Juan Soto in the sixth. This was the second time this season that Kremer threw seven innings, and he now sits with a 4.19 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. The 28-year-old has now won back-to-back starts and hopes to keep the momentum rolling as he lined up to face the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, May 5th.

Kremer kept the Bucs at bay as he allowed five hits and one unearned run with six strikeouts. Kremer looked sharp across the first four frames, only allowing three hits. In the fifth, Edward Olivares was able to score but only reached scoring position due to a throwing error. Kremer then locked it down by only allowing one base runner over his last two innings. The Orioles were unable to hold the lead for Kremer, leaving him with a no-decision. Kremer struggled in his first start of the season as he allowed three runs in five innings, but he looked sharp today. The 28-year-old tentatively lines up for a home start against the Milwaukee Brewers on April 13.
