3/05/23 | In Grayson Rodriguez's shadow, Orioles' Spenser Watkins makes his own case for rotation spot. On a team of second-chancers whose individual steps forward collectively fueled the Orioles' winning record in 2022, Spenser Watkins' contributions often went overlooked. After prized prospect Grayson Rodriguez dazzled in a two-inning start in Lakeland, Florida, Watkins outpitched him, retiring all six batters he faced in an outing against his former organization. Both right-handers are among the dozen pitchers Baltimore is considering for its rotation, and Watkins has often been left outside of forecasts to make the final five. “I've been talking with a lot of people how cool it's been,” Watkins said earlier in the spring of the competition.

10/17/22 | Spenser Watkins improved significantly in 2022, but not quite enough. What the Orioles liked, perhaps, was the version of Watkins who allowed just one earned run in each of his first three big league starts before posting a 10.80 ERA the rest of the way. Watkins did his part to earn his second chance, working out with Driveline Baseball over the winter to hone a new pitch — a slider — that he hoped would transform his arsenal.

10/04/22 | Blue Jays-Orioles game rained out, doubleheader on Wednesday. BALTIMORE (AP) — The Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays were rained out Tuesday night and are scheduled to play a doubleheader Wednesday to end the regular season. There is little significance to these last two games. The Blue Jays have clinched the top wild card in the American League, and the Orioles are assured of an above-.500 record and a fourth-place finish in the AL East a year after losing 110 games. Wednesday's traditional doubleheader is set to start at 12:35 p.m. ET. Mike Baumann (1-3) and Spenser Watkins (5-6) are scheduled to start for the Orioles. Mitch White (0-4) is set to pitch the opener for Toronto. The second starter for the Blue Jays is to be announced. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports Source: https://www.chron.com/sports/article/Blue-Jays-Ori... |

9/04/22 | How adding a slider during the season solidified Spenser Watkins' place in the Orioles rotation. In that first bullpen session in April, at the onset of a season Spenser Watkins would find a level of consistency he hadn’t yet experienced in the major leagues, Orioles pitching coach Chris Holt told the right-hander to grip a slider and hold nothing back. The first few throws were a product of that — the erratic attempts of a pitch Watkins hadn’t thrown in years. But then, as Watkins continued to tweak his grip and hurl toward home plate, something clicked. Source: https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles/bs-sp-... |
