Buck began by talking about the new challenge system in the MLB and how he tries to use late challenges to his advantage. Buck also talked about how they need to find spots to put Steve Pearce in more because he seems to make an impact when he is in the lineup. On the question of whether Steve Clevenger's defensive lapses are the reason he is still in the minors Buck said "don't say we think Steve can't defend and these other guys can."

Buck also talked about the starting rotation saying "we feel comfortable with the guys we have." And Buck said it is "realistic" that Dylan Bundy could be an option late in the season for the O's.
