Each start has built upon the last, culminating in his most impressive performance yet: a seven-inning shutout gem against the Houston Astros, where he allowed just three hits, zero earned runs, and struck out seven. An effort that not only gave the Orioles a huge lift in the standings, but also lowered Kremer\u2019s ERA below the\u00a04.00 mark (3.97) for the first time this season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">For a pitcher who once sat with a ballooned 8.44 ERA after being knocked around by the Toronto Blue Jays in April, that turnaround is nothing short of remarkable. It\u2019s also exactly the kind of reminder Orioles fans needed, that this rotation isn\u2019t a \u201clost cause,\u201d no matter what the outside chatter says.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Orioles\u2019 Dean Kremer delivered statement start against Astros in redemption run<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Kremer\u2019s August surge isn\u2019t happening in isolation. The Orioles\u2019 rotation has quietly pieced together what is possibly their best stretch of the season, proving they can stand toe-to-toe with playoff-caliber lineups. Against AL West contenders \u2014 the Astros and the Seattle Mariners. the O\u2019s staff delivered six strong outings, highlighted by four quality starts and gutsy contributions from Tomoyuki Sugano and Cade Povich, who each tossed five effective innings.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">But make no mistake: Kremer has led the charge. His eight-inning, one-run performance against the Mariners showed he could dominate deep into games. His follow-up against the Astros was the exclamation point; a statement start against a team known for punishing mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>This pitching run should breathe some life back into the fanbase. It tells Orioles fans that the team\u2019s arms aren\u2019t just stopgaps until reinforcements arrive,\u00a0they\u2019re capable of carrying the load right now.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Of course, baseball has a way of humbling you quickly. And Kremer and the rest of the rotation won\u2019t have to wait long for their next test. Baltimore faces the Astros again for the second time in as many weeks, and six out of their next nine games against a Boston Red Sox lineup that has been relentless down the stretch.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">This will give opposing hitters multiple looks at Baltimore\u2019s starters, and it\u2019ll give Kremer and company a chance to prove this isn\u2019t just a hot streak. If the Orioles can continue to get this version of him \u2014 the one keeping hitters off balance, and showing poise against elite lineups, then the rotation goes from a liability to a weapon.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">He may not be an ace, but what Kremer is doing right now is ace-like. More importantly, it\u2019s symbolic. The Orioles may not need a superstar to carry the staff. They need steady arms who can compete and give the offense a chance to win.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">For a fanbase that\u2019s endured a season filled with more downs than ups, Kremer\u2019s latest start was more than just a box score. It served as a sign that the team is still fighting, and just maybe rounding into form to close out the season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Orioles pitcher Dean Kremer silenced the Astros and reminded fans that Baltimore\u2019s rotation maybe finally finding its stride.
