Orioles' Shane Baz: Game 162 canceled
Baz will not start in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Yankees due to inclement weather, and the game will not be rescheduled.

Baz will end the 2026 regular season with a 6-15 record across 31 starts and a 4.11 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 154:63 K:BB over a career-high 179.2 innings.

Schlittler is the favorite to win the AL Cy Young Award after he went 14-6 with a 1.95 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 239:49 K:BB over 193.2 innings for the Yankees during the regular season.
