Canzone went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.

Canzone has nine homers on the year, including five over his last 14 contests. He's batting .381 (16-for-42) with seven RBI in that span as he continues to be productive in a strong-side platoon role. Canzone is now hitting .276 with an .874 OPS, 26 RBI, 23 runs scored, 12 doubles and a stolen base over 170 plate appearances on the year.

Raley went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.

Raley has endured a cold start to June. He's been held hitless in seven of nine games this month, going 3-for-31 (.097) since the calendar flipped. The outfielder is still batting .249 on the year, and he's added an .835 OPS, 14 homers, 33 RBI, 23 runs scored and a stolen base over 199 plate appearances. The Mariners appear to be committed to a platoon in right field, so Raley should continue to see steady playing time versus right-handed pitchers.

Young went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.

Young led off the game with a homer, taking Kyle Bradish deep on the third pitch of the contest. Over the last 14 games, Young has hit safely in 13 of them, going 18-for-57 (.316) in that span. He's hit leadoff against the last five right-handers the Mariners have faced, corresponding with J.P. Crawford's (hand) exit from the lineup. Young is now batting .255 with a .684 OPS, five homers, 32 RBI, 29 runs scored, 10 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 70 contests this season, and he's trending up.

Woo (5-5) allowed seven runs on seven hits, a walk and a hit batsman while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Orioles on Thursday.

Woo continues to be wildly inconsistent -- he's allowed at least four runs in five of his last nine outings, but he's also posted three scoreless lines in that span. The right-hander was cruising early Thursday, but a six-run third inning spoiled the effort. That included a pair of home runs, making this just the third time he's allowed multiple homers in a game this season. Woo now has a 4.28 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 79:15 K:BB through 82 innings across 14 starts. He'll look to get back on track next week in a rematch versus the Orioles in Seattle.

Rutschman went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, three RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.

Rutschman had missed three games with left hamstring tightness before returning as the designated hitter Thursday. He is batting .393 (11-for-28) over seven contests in June, so getting his bat back in the lineup is big for Baltimore. The catcher is hitting .273 with an .848 OPS, eight home runs, 39 RBI, 26 runs scored, 15 doubles and a triple over 49 games this season.

Cowser went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.

Cowser had gone 0-for-10 with two walks and three strikeouts in the first three games of the series, but he was able to end the slump with a third-inning blast off Bryan Woo to ignite a six-run inning for the Orioles. Cowser has struggled to hit for average this season, batting .227 with a .708 OPS, seven homers, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored and two stolen bases over 162 plate appearances. He has upped the power lately with all seven of his homers coming since May 17.

Alonso went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.

After also homering in Wednesday's contest, Alonso has now gone deep in consecutive games for the third time this season. Over his last 15 contests, he's hitting .279 (17-for-61) with five long balls and 11 RBI. The first baseman continues to be a steady source of power with 15 homers, 44 RBI, 42 runs scored, 12 doubles and two stolen bases while batting .243 with a .775 OPS over 70 contests this season.

Kittredge threw a scoreless and hitless inning without striking out or walking a batter to earn the save in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.

One runner reached base on an error, but Kittredge was able to settle in and lock it down. He needed just six pitches in total, getting three groundouts. He's been a little spotty this season, allowing at least one run in seven of his 17 appearances, but it's a seven-run meltdown from May 3 versus the Yankees that has skewed his ratios. He's at a 6.75 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 15:4 K:BB with a save, two holds and a blown save across 14.2 innings this season. The right-hander is the fifth pitcher to log a save for Baltimore this season, though Kittredge will likely be limited to a setup role once Ryan Helsley (elbow) comes off the injured list.

Bradish allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out five over four innings in a no-decision against the Mariners on Thursday.

The Orioles built up a 6-1 lead in the third inning, but Bradish gave four runs back in the fourth. That would be his last frame of the game after throwing 85 pitches (52 strikes) in the start. He looked to have turned a corner in late May, but he's allowed 10 runs over eight innings across his two starts in June. Overall, Bradish is at a 4.30 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 73:39 K:BB through 73.1 innings over 14 starts this season. His next start is projected to be a rematch against the Mariners in Seattle.

Appearing as a pinch hitter, Perez went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 11-0 win over the Twins.

Perez received a pinch-hit appearance against Minnesota catcher Alex Jackson in mop-up duty, and the former made the at-bat count with his seventh home run of the season. Five of those long balls have come in the last 13 games, though Perez is batting a modest .256 during the power surge and only .186 overall. The 26-year-old may struggle with consistency due to his low batting average, but he's providing fantasy value recently thanks to his ability to leave the yard.
