Milone (1-4) took the loss Tuesday as the Orioles fell 4-2 to the Rays, giving up four runs (two earned) on four hits and a walk over 5.1 innings. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
While two Pat Valaika errors did him no favors, Milone also served up back-to-back homers to Hunter Renfroe and Manuel Margot in the second inning, digging a hole the O's offense couldn't climb out of. The veteran lefty has lost three straight starts, and while his 15:1 K:BB in 15.1 innings over that stretch looks good, the four homers he coughed up indicate the results were not simply the product of bad luck. Milone will take a slowly eroding 3.99 ERA and 1.26 WHIP into his next outing Sunday, on the road against the Blue Jays in Buffalo.

Milone (1-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Blue Jays after allowing three runs on seven hits over six innings. He had seven strikeouts and zero walks.
EDGE Analysis
Randal Grichuk did all the damage against Milone on Wednesday, with his solo homer during the fourth inning and two-run shot during the sixth accounting for all his charged runs. The veteran lefty has a 4.13 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 25:3 K:BB through 24 innings, and he'll look to get back in the win column Tuesday against the Rays.

Milone (1-2) took the loss in Friday's 15-3 rout at the hands of the Nationals, coughing up six runs (three earned) on nine hits over four innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
One start after holding the Nats scoreless over six innings for his first win of the year, Milone's luck reversed itself, although a Hanser Alberto error softened the blow to his ERA. The journeyman southpaw still has a respectable 4.00 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 18:3 K:BB through four starts and 18 innings, but his career track record suggests further regression is coming, and soon. Milone will next take the mound Wednesday in a home clash with the Blue Jays.

Milone (1-1) fired six scoreless innings as he earned the win Friday against the Nationals. He allowed three hits and no walks while striking out three.
EDGE Analysis
After a sharp no-decision his last time on the mound, Milone was rewarded with a win with Friday's performance. The Nationals' bats were quiet throughout the game, and the Orioles backed up the southpaw's outing with ample run support before he exited the game. Milone now carries a 3.21 ERA and 16:3 K:BB over 16 innings across his first three starts of 2020. The 33-year-old will attempt to replicate his results at home Friday against the Nationals.

Milone allowed one run on six hits and no walks while striking out eight over five innings in Sunday's win against the Rays. He didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
The Orioles picked up a comfortable 5-1 win Sunday, but the team only mustered one run over the first six innings, forcing Milone to settle for a no-decision. The only production the southpaw allowed against the Rays came via a solo home run to lead off the sixth inning that led to his removal from the contest. Across two starts to begin the season, Milone carries a 5.63 ERA and 13:3 K:BB over eight innings. His next chance to enter the win column should come on the road Saturday against the Nationals.

Milone will start Sunday's game against the Rays, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The left-hander will make his second start of the season in the series finale versus Tampa Bay. Milone started Opening Day for the Orioles and was tagged with the loss after allowing four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five over three innings.

Milone is a "strong candidate" to start Sunday against the Rays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Alex Cobb and Wade LeBlanc are lined up to pitch the first two games of the series, leaving either Milone or Kohl Stewart to take the finale. Milone struck out five in his season debut against the Red Sox but otherwise struggled, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks across three innings.

Milone (0-1) was tagged with the loss during Friday's 13-2 loss to the Red Sox. He gave up four runs on four hits and three walks while fanning five in just three innings of work.
EDGE Analysis
Milone struggled in his first start of the season, lasting just three innings against a red-hot Boston offense that figured him out quickly. He posted a 4.76 ERA in 111.2 innings last season with the Mariners, so fantasy managers should temper expectations about Milone's upside moving forward. His next start is scheduled July 29 at home against the Marlins.

Milone will be the Orioles' Opening Day starter Friday against the Red Sox, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Milone wouldn't be the Opening Day starter for many teams in the league, as his unimpressive 4.76 ERA in 111.2 innings for the Mariners last season was his best mark since 2015. He wouldn't earn the honor for the Orioles, normally, but he's been called upon with John Means unavailable due to arm fatigue.

Milone had his contract selected by Baltimore on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old was included in the Orioles' 60-player pool for the shortened season, and he's now officially been added to the 40-man roster. Milone appears to be in competition with Kohl Stewart for the fifth spot in the starting rotation, but with the potential for sudden absences due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both pitchers will likely have a place on the initial 30-man roster.
