Jake Arrieta likely odd man out
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Orioles pitcher Jake Arrieta could go from being the best option to start Thursday at Toronto to being optioned back to Triple-A Norfolk, MASNSports.com reports. 

The Orioles have reportedly decided to call up highly touted phenom Kevin Gausman from Double-A Bowie to start Thursday. Arrieta and T.J. McFarland were said to be the only two candidates for that start, but things changed for manager Buck Showalter, general manager Dan Duquette and the Orioles. 

The Orioles need to make room the roster and it appears Arrieta is the most likely candidate to be sent out with McFarland a Rule 5 player that needs to stay on the roster.

Max Scherzer bounces back vs. Indians
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com

Tigers starter Max Scherzer, who allowed five runs his last time out, bounced back with a flawless performance as he struck out seven and picked up his sixth win of the season Tuesday night against the Indians.

The right-hander permitted one run and allowed two hits over eight innings of work. He struck out seven of the last 12 batters faced in a 5-1 win.

Scherzer has gone eight innings strong in three of his last four starts. He will make his next start Sunday at home against the Twins. He is 4-0 with a 5.85 ERA in five starts at home.

by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
