Orioles right-hander Jason Hammel, who returned to the club Sunday after two days away with a stomach virus, said he is doubtful he will be able to make his scheduled start Monday against the Tigers in Detroit. Manager Buck Showalter said a decision on who will start that game will be made after Sunday's series finale against Boston. “He feels obviously a lot better than he did,” Showalter said. “We've got some things in place. A lot depends on how we get throw the day today, so we've got two or three ways to go. There's a potential for us to give him an extra day and push him to Tuesday, but we could pitch him tomorrow.

Orioles right-hander Jake Arrieta , who was called up from Triple-A Norfolk on Friday to provide bullpen depth, will start Monday night against the Tigers in Detroit in place of right-hander Jason Hammel . Hammel returned to the ballpark Sunday after two days away with a stomach virus, but manager Buck Showalter said he's uncertain if Hammel will be ready to pitch in Tuesday's game. "I've been waiting just for an opportunity, and I look forward to capitalizing on that and just contributing to continue help this team win," Arrieta said Sunday after the Orioles' 6-3 win over the Boston Red Sox. "We're playing good baseball.

Right-hander Jason Hammel turned in one of the worst pitching lines of his Orioles career on Friday night, giving up seven earned runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out four batters in 4 2/3 innings. That's his worst outing since giving up eight earned runs in 3 1/3 innings against the Los Angeles Angels on June 27, 2012. But he wasn't the only pitcher in the Orioles organization with an interesting line on Friday - though I guess it depends on your version of interesting.

Not a lot of news coming out of pre-game interviews with the team and Orioles manager Buck Showalter. Some highlights: ** Tommy Hunter says he has an “itty, bitty bruise” on his pitching hand after barehanding a sharp comebacker yesterday. He's beating himself up for being “stupid,” but says his right hand feels OK. It wasn't really swollen, so the plan was for him to play catch today. Showalter said Hunter would get an X-Ray on the hand, but it seems like the Orioles dodged a bullet.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The Orioles were introduced to the latest jewel of the Tampa Bay Rays' pitching pipeline Friday night. Rays right-hander Chris Archer, who was making just his sixth career big league start, limited the high-powered Orioles offense to a season-low two hits in a 2-1 loss to Tampa Bay in front of an announced 13,256 at Tropicana Field. Orioles starter Jason Hammel took a one-run lead into the seventh-inning stretch, but he allowed a two-run homer to Rays center fielder Desmond Jennings in bottom half of the frame.

The Orioles have done a good job of not allowing tough losses to linger, and they'll have to do that again this afternoon in their series finale against the Tigers at Camden Yards. “You get beat some times and today we got beat,” center fielder Adam Jones said following the Orioles' 10-3 loss to the Tigers. “It happens. But [Sunday] there's a series to win and according to my calculations, if you win a lot of series you should put yourself in pretty good situations.” The Orioles' loss Saturday to Detroit was bizarre.

It didn't take the Detroit Tigers long to remind the Orioles that momentum and a couple of bucks will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks. The Orioles were flying so high after Friday night's ninth-inning comeback that the air apparently got a little too thin. The big-swinging Tigers pierced the sky four times in an eight-run explosion in the top of the fourth inning that all but evened the series before late-afternoon shadows could reach the pitcher's mound. The assault was so quick and unmerciful that it rendered Tigers ace Justin Verlander almost irrelevant.

The debate whether right-hander Jason Hammel intentionally threw at Detroit Tigers left fielder Matt Tuiasosopo's head was markedly one-sided in both clubhouses following the the Orioles' ugly 10-3 loss Saturday. Both dugouts agreed that Hammel had no intent to harm Tuiasosopo in the fourth inning of Saturday's game. The umpires didn't entirely disagree, but claimed that Hammel - intentionally or not - forced them to prevent a wild game from getting out of hand. After allowing three consecutive solo home runs to the Tigers in the fourth inning, Hammel's next pitch - an 82-mph slider - sailed out of his hand and toward Tuiasosopo's head, hitting him on the left shoulder as he ducked away from the pitch.

Right-hander Jason Hammel was ejected in the fourth inning Saturday when he hit the first batter he faced after allowing three consecutive home runs to the Detroit Tigers in Saturday's 10-3 loss. Hammel hit Tigers left fielder Matt Tuiasosopo in the shoulder with an 82 mph slider, and home plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt immediately tossed Hammel. The pitch appeared to get away from Hammel as it left his hand and tracked toward Tuiasosopo's head. Designated hitter Victor Martinez, shortstop Jhonny Peralta and catcher Alex Avila hit three consecutive solo home runs off Hammel before Tuiasosopo's at-bat to take a 4-1 lead.

Orioles right-hander Jason Hammel let rookie Kevin Gausman sit for about a half inning after the 22-year-old's rough performance against the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night before approaching him. Hammel just wanted Gausman to know two things: 1. We've all been there. 2. You will be successful here. “I just asked him how he felt. He said he felt good. I just asked him, 'Did things kind of speed up on you a little bit?' That's what it kind of looked like from out vantage point,” Hammel said.

A couple posing as city water department employees entered a Northeast Baltimore home yesterday and stole at least $2,000, a victim said.Edward M. Hammel, of the 3200 block of Kenyon Ave., said he recognized the man as the same one who asked to check the "inside" water meter at his home about two months ago. "I told him to leave then because the meter is outside and he didn't have ID," Hammel said.About 1 p.m. yesterday, the man returned and displayed a laminated ID card with his photo and the words "water department" and asked again to check the meter, Hammel said.

A state trooper was seriously injured yesterday in Annapolis after his cruiser slid under the bed of a tractor-trailer turning left in front of him, pinning him in the wreckage for an hour, police said.The 11:15 a.m. accident shut down traffic on Rowe Boulevard, the major thoroughfare into Annapolis, for almost three hours, causing gridlock as traffic was diverted to surrounding side streets.Tfc. David M. Hammel, 26, a seven-year veteran, was listed in serious but stable condition yesterday afternoon at the Maryland Shock Trauma Center.

Orioles right-hander Jason Hammel, even when he has put up a so-called “quality start” this season, has been visibly and vocally disappointed by how he has pitched. By his exacting standards, he needs to do more, command his fastball better and last longer than he has this season, especially after establishing himself as the club's top pitcher in 2012. Hammel's personal streak of beating himself up officially ended Monday afternoon, in a 6-2 victory over the Washington Nationals before a sold-out and bi-partisan announced crowd of 41,260 in the nation's capital.

It's one of those questions that players hate. Was this your best game of the season? Many players can't tell you what they did when, they just go out and do it. They leave the comparing and analysis to the media. Monday's starter, Jason Hammel, didn't hesitate to answer after allowing two runs in eight innings against the Washington Nationals. “For the year, definitely the best start,” said Hammel, who struck out a season-high eight batters. He hadn't gone more than 6 2/3 innings this season.
