Orioles' Cade Povich: Stakes claim for last rotation spot
Povich picked up the win after throwing five hitless innings with three walks in Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Blue Jays. He struck out six.
Battling with Albert Suarez for Baltimore's final rotation spot in Grayson Rodriguez's (elbow) stead, Povich dazzled against Toronto's regular lineup to stake his claim to open the season as a starter. Although the 24-year-old left-hander stumbled with five runs allowed in last Friday's Grapefruit League start, Povich carries a 3.07 ERA and 0.89 WHIP with 15 strikeouts over 14.2 innings this spring, including three scoreless outings. Povich acknowledged after Tuesday's game that it could have been his last spring appearance, per Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com, but the aforementioned Suarez is scheduled to start Friday's exhibition contest against the Tigers for his final audition before the Orioles decide on their fifth starter.

Orioles' Cade Povich: Falters in fifth inning
Povich took the loss in Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Blue Jays after giving up five runs on eight hits over 4.2 innings. He struck out two.
Although his final stat line leaves a lot to be desired, Povich had allowed a lone run through four innings before getting knocked around for four runs in the fifth frame. The 24-year-old left-hander is competing with Albert Suarez for Baltimore's final rotation spot in the wake of Grayson Rodriguez's elbow injury, but manager Brandon Hyde said prior to Thursday's game that Povich wasn't entering a "make-or-break" start, per Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com. Povich, who now holds a 4.66 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with nine strikeouts across 9.2 innings this spring, will likely get at least one more start in the Grapefruit League before the Orioles make a rotation decision.

Orioles' Cade Povich: Positioned as No. 7 starter
Manager Brandon Hyde said Saturday that Povich is currently considered the Orioles' seventh starting pitcher, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Assuming everyone stays healthy throughout spring training, Baltimore's five-man rotation of Zach Eflin, Grayson Rodriguez, Charlie Morton, Dean Kremer and Tomoyuki Sugano is set, while Hyde labeled Albert Suarez as the No. 6 starter. Povich appears poised to begin the campaign at Triple-A Norfolk, but he's off to a strong start in spring training with seven strikeouts over five scoreless innings through two starts. The left-hander made 16 starts for Baltimore as a rookie last year and had a 5.20 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 69:34 K:BB across 79.2 innings, and it's likely just a matter of time before he receives another look in 2025.

Orioles' Cade Povich: Clinches playoff spot for O's
Povich (3-9) picked up the win Friday, allowing two hits and a walk over 5.2 scoreless innings in a 7-2 victory over the Twins. He struck out two.
The rookie southpaw fired 57 of 79 pitches for strikes, falling just short of his fourth career quality start, as he helped the Orioles clinch a wild-card spot. Povich put together an impressive September to close out his first season in the majors, posting a 2.60 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 32:8 K:BB through 27.2 innings over five outings, but it's not yet clear how Baltimore plans to deploy the 24-year-old in the playoffs.

Orioles' Cade Povich: Strikes out seven in no-decision
Povich did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-4 loss against the Tigers, allowing two runs on two hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over five innings.
Povich turned in another solid outing Saturday as he continues his strong month of September. The rookie left-hander has a 3.27 ERA and 0.95 WHIP with 30 strikeouts in 22 innings this month. Opponents are hitting just .175 against Povich over that stretch, and he'll finish off his regular season with a road start at Minnesota next week.

Orioles' Cade Povich: Fans eight in defeat
Povich (2-9) took the loss Sunday, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks over five innings against the Tigers. He struck out eight.
Povich allowed a third-inning homer by Riley Greene that represented the only two runs allowed by the Orioles' righty. Otherwise, Povich pitched well, rebounding from allowing four runs in 4.2 during his last start by fanning eight while allowing only four baserunners prior to being pulled after five having thrown 89 pitches. It's the fifth time through 14 starts that Povich has allowed two or fewer runs while tossing at least five innings. He's slated to get another shot against the Tigers in his next start, this time within the friendly confines of Camden Yards.
