*In honor of Earth Day, Jeremy Guthrie is rocking a green glove. You can read more on his eco-friendly efforts here.
*Mark Reynolds’ two-strike approach has changed dramatically since he was in Arizona, a facet of his game that hitting coach Jim Presley has focused on. As for Reynolds’ lack of power,
Cheap Washington Nationals Hats, both Presley and Reynolds feel that will come from piecing together good ABs.
*Look for Cesar Izturis to get in to tomorrow’s game. Robert Andino has been playing well so he’s gotten the bulk of time lately for injured shortstop J.J. Hardy. The Orioles are hoping Hardy can start baseball-related activities this weekend.
*Alfredo Simon has made two outings in extended spring training and the plan is for him to continue to get stretched out as a starter to add more organizational depth.

*Brian Matusz threw again today (getting up to 120 feet on flat ground) and will take Saturday off and throw again on Sunday. The plan is for him to get on the mound in some form –possible a half mound — on Tuesday.

*Given his recent struggles, manager Buck Showalter said Michael Gonzalez will start to be used in less-pressurized situations until he gets back on track. Gonzalez, who said he is healthy, called this stretch the toughest of his career. Look for Clay Rapada to be used more as a late-game lefty.
