The 24-year-old right-hander walked three batters while striking out two in the ballgame. the only run that scored against him came as Owen Miller drove in a run with a fielder’s choice in the second inning. Montero has been the guy the Tigers rely on anytime they have a doubleheader or need to give their starters an extra day of rest, and so far that has led to him posting a 4.15 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and a 15/10 K/BB ratio over 21 2/3 innings in his first four starts. He should get another opportunity at some point in the next couple of weeks.

With Cedric Mullins sitting out on Thursday, Gunnar Henderson will bat lead off, and Holliday will jump up from sixth in the order to second. Holliday is riding a hot streak right now, and the Orioles are taking advantage. This is likely just a one-game sample with no Mullins or Adley Rutschman in the lineup, but Rutschman has been struggling, so perhaps it could become a more permanent spot in the lineup for Holliday moving forward.
