Manager Brandon Hyde confirmed that Povich will make his next start during the Orioles' home series versus the Nationals this weekend, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Povich initially lined up to start Tuesday against the Twins, but after that game was postponed, the Orioles won't have him pitch against Minnesota and will instead push his next start back a few days. Chayce McDermott will be recalled from Triple-A Norfolk and is expected to make a spot start or serve as a bulk reliever in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus Minnesota to fill the gap in the rotation. As Meyer notes, being moved off of a start against a righty-heavy Twins lineup should be more favorable for the left-handed Povich, who now gets to face a Nationals lineup that typically features four lefty bats (James Wood, CJ Abrams, Nathaniel Lowe and Luis Garcia).

The Brewers recalled Henderson from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Henderson will start Wednesday's contest in Cleveland. The rookie right-hander was dynamite in a spot start in his major-league debut last month against the Athletics, tossing six innings of one-run ball with nine strikeouts. Wednesday's outing is likely to be just a spot start for Henderson, but it's possible he could convince the Brewers to keep him around if he pitches well.

Brown came away with a no-decision in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Marlins, allowing two runs on five hits over 5.1 innings. He struck out six without walking a batter.

The right-hander gave up two singles in the top of the sixth before getting lifted after 72 pitches (56 strikes), denying him a shot at his third quality start of the season. Brown has helped steady an injury-ravaged Cubs rotation in May, posting a 2.76 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 19:2 K:BB through 16.1 innings over three outings, and if the 25-year-old maintains his control gains, he could be headed for a breakout campaign. Brown is scheduled for a rematch with the Marlins early next week in Miami for his next start.

Bello did not factor in the decision during Tuesday's extra-innings loss to the Tigers. He allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings.

Bello coughed up a run in the first inning and the Tigers plated another on an error in the third. He then served up a solo shot to Spencer Torkelson in the fourth. Bello has failed to complete five innings in back-to-back starts after turning in two consecutive quality starts. He tossed 55 of 92 pitches for strikes and now owns a lackluster 17:14 K:BB through 27 frames. Bello will carry a 2.33 ERA into his next matchup, which is projected to be at home against the Mets.

Bellozo came away with a no-decision in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Cubs, giving up two runs (one earned) on four hits and a walk over four-plus innings. He struck out two.

Bellozo pitched into the fifth inning but got the hook after 74 pitches (46 strikes) when the first two Chicago hitters reached base on a hit by pitch and an Eric Wagaman throwing error. The right-hander has provided effective rotation depth in May, posting a 3.86 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 10:7 K:BB through 14 innings over three outings, but with Ryan Weathers (forearm) set to come off the IL on Wednesday, Bellozo could be headed back to Triple-A Jacksonville.

Montero allowed three runs on five hits and a walk over 3.1 innings during Tuesday's extra-innings win over Boston. He struck out three and did not factor in the decision.

Montero was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday and worked in a bulk-relief role after Tyler Holton threw 1.2 innings as the opener. Alex Bregman knocked a solo home run in the fourth inning and Boston tallied a pair of runs in the fifth. Montero owns a 4.68 ERA with an 18:11 K:BB through 25 MLB innings. If he sees another turn in the rotation or as a bulk reliever, he'd be lined up to make his next appearance in St. Louis.

The Orioles added McDermott to the taxi squad Wednesday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Presumably, McDermott will be formally recalled from Triple-A Norfolk and will serve as the 27th man for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Twins. The right-hander has thrown just 9.2 innings in the minors this season after recovering from a lat strain, allowing two runs with a 10:6 K:BB between Double-A Chesapeake and Norfolk.

Cannon tossed six scoreless innings Tuesday against the Reds, allowing just four hits and no walks while striking out six. He did not factor into the decision.

Cannon had his best outing of the season and was one strikeout off from tying his career high. He's now gone four straight outings of at least six innings while allowing three runs or fewer and hasn't walked a batter in his last 21 innings. He lowered his ERA to a 3.60 after the stellar effort and lines up to face the Cubs this weekend at Wrigley Field.

Schwellenbach (2-3) picked up the win Tuesday, giving up two runs on four hits and two walks over seven innings in a 5-2 victory over the Nationals. He struck out three.

He served up a leadoff homer to CJ Abrams and gave up another run before Atlanta's offense woke up in the bottom of the fourth inning, but Schwellenbach ended up cruising to a fairly comfortable win. The 24-year-old righty has produced seven quality starts in nine trips to the mound this season, and he'll take a 3.31 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 46:11 K:BB through 54.1 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road this weekend in Boston.

Abbott allowed one run on four hits and no walks while striking out seven in six innings Tuesday against the White Sox. He did not factor into the decision.

Despite allowing just one run over six innings, Abbott exited on the hook for the loss after the Reds got blanked through eight innings. He posted his second quality start of the year and his fourth start of at least five innings. His command has been stellar of late, as he's posted a 15:0 K:BB in 11 innings over his last two starts. Abbott owns a 2.10 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 38:12 K:BB in 30 innings this season.
