The Orioles are unlikely to stick pitcher Kevin Gausman in the starting rotation over the remainder of the season, MLB.com reports. The Orioles are being careful with Gausman's workload and role.
"He was pretty sore; I don't want to say sore, but stiff after his last outing," manager Buck Showalter said. "He was a two- or three-day off for me. He was unavailable the last couple of days. I'm careful about yo-yoing young players that haven't done it. I don't think it's good business."
Gausman has made three relief appearances since rejoining the Orioles, going 1-1 and allowing two earned runs in 5 2/3 innings.
