Dean Kremer Goes on Injured List With Quad Strain
The Baltimore Orioles placed right-hander Dean Kremer (quadriceps) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to April 20) on Thursday with a right-quadriceps strain and recalled right-hander Brandon Young from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move, according to Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports. Young is scheduled to start the series opener on Friday against the division-rival Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. For the time being, it will be Young taking Kremer's starting rotation spot, and not left-hander Cade Povich. At a minimum, the 30-year-old Kremer will miss two turns through Baltimore's rotation. He had made it through just two starts this year before dealing with a quad strain, going 0-1 with a 4.09 ERA and 0.91 WHIP with 16 strikeouts in his 11 innings of work. Kremer has a 37.2% strikeout rate so far in two starts, but his 20.6% career strikeout rate leaves a lot to be desired in terms of fantasy. He's not a must-stash in deeper leagues and is currently rostered in just 12% of Yahoo leagues.
