BALTIMORE ORIOLES NEWS

Rougned Odor - On bench Monday Odor will sit Monday against the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Odor had actually been in the lineup against the last three lefties this Orioles faced, but he'll retreat to the bench here against Rich Hill, as he'd done against nearly every southpaw prior to that recent stretch. Chris Owings will be the second baseman.

Cedric Mullins - Heads to bench Mullins will sit Monday against Boston, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Mullins sits for just the third time this season, with Ryan McKenna taking over in center field. He's so far been unable to repeat the form he showed in his breakout season last year, as he's hitting a modest .241/.303/.372 on the season, but he's at least helped fantasy teams in a big way with his 11 steals, a number which ranks fourth in the league.

Trey Mancini - Three hits in blowout loss Mancini went 3-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a walk in Sunday's 12-2 loss to the Red Sox.

Impact Mancini knocked in the Orioles' first run with an RBI single in the fifth inning. He entered Sunday on a 2-for-16 skid in his previous four games before this strong performance. The 30-year-old is up to a .298/.368/.386 slash line with three home runs, 17 RBI, 14 runs scored and six doubles through 45 contests.

Cody Sedlock - Works three innings in debut Sedlock allowed five runs on six hits and a walk with three strikeouts in three innings versus the Red Sox on Sunday.

Impact Sedlock got through the fifth through seventh innings without too much trouble, but he got into trouble in the eighth. Marcos Diplan allowed an inherited runner to score after Sedlock left the contest. It was far from a dream debut for the right-hander, who will need to show more than what he did Sunday to maintain his place on the major-league roster.

Bruce Zimmermann - Gives up six runs Sunday Zimmermann (2-3) allowed six runs on eight hits and a walk while striking out two in four innings to take the loss in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Zimmermann struggled against the long ball in his last start by giving up four home runs, and he allowed five homers over the first four innings of Sunday's blowout loss. The southpaw was relatively effective at limiting run production early in the year, as he posted a 2.72 ERA in 36.1 innings over his first seven starts of the season. However, he's given up at least four runs in each of his last three starts while recording an 8.80 ERA in 15.1 innings during that time. Zimmermann projects to make his next start at home against the Guardians on Friday.

Dean Kremer - Excels in third rehab start Kremer (oblique) struck out seven and gave up one hit and one walk over four scoreless innings Sunday in his rehab start for Triple-A Norfolk.

Impact Making the third minor-league start of his rehab assignment, Kremer built up to 60 pitches (36 strikes) and breezed through the outing. Between stops at Norfolk and Double-A Bowie during the assignment, Kremer has struck out 18 and issued only two walks over nine innings. He could be available to return from the 10-day injured list to make his next start in the big leagues during the Orioles' home series with the Guardians next weekend.

Adam Hall - Returns to action at Double-A Hall (undisclosed) has gone 6-for-24 with two doubles, two walks, two runs, one RBI and three stolen bases in seven games for Double-A Bowie since returning from the 7-day injured...

Impact The 23-year-old infielder was on the shelf for a little over two weeks due to an unspecified issue. Hall is slashing .291/.380/.349 with a 9-for-9 success rate on stolen-base attempts over his 100 plate appearances at Bowie this season.

DJ Stewart - Makes return at Triple-A Stewart (undisclosed) has gone 2-for-11 with a home run, three walks, four RBI and three runs in his five games since returning from Triple-A Norfolk's 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Impact Stewart was sidelined for approximately two and a half weeks due to the unspecified issue. After being dropped from the Orioles' 40-man roster earlier this season, the 28-year-old outfielder will face an uphill battle to make it back to the big leagues regardless of how he performs at Norfolk the rest of the way.

Terrin Vavra - Ready for rehab assignment Vavra (hamstring) has finished his recovery at extended spring training and is set to begin a rehab assignment with High-A Aberdeen, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Vavra's rehab assignment will likely begin this coming week with Aberdeen. Once he's gotten in a few reps there, he'll be set to resume his season with Triple-A Norfolk, where he hit .327/.435/.423 in 13 games prior to the injury.

Austin Hays - Sits amid hit streak Hays is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Hays is riding a nine-game hit streak during which he's gone 12-for-36 with two home runs, nine RBI, seven runs and a stolen base, but he'll be the odd man out of the lineup Sunday. Trey Mancini will shift to left field while catcher Adley Rutschman rests his legs as the designated hitter.

Jorge Mateo - Records 13th steal Mateo went 1-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in a 4-2 win over the Red Sox in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Mateo sat out Game 1 for rest, but he was back in the lineup at shortstop for the nightcap. The shortstop picked up his fourth steal in his last 11 games, swiping third base after a third-inning double. His 13 steals this season trail only Julio Rodriguez for the major-league lead. Mateo is slashing .208/.244/.336 with three home runs, 12 RBI, 14 runs scored, eight doubles and a triple in 157 plate appearances.

Austin Hays - Riding nine-game hitting streak Hays went 3-for-9 with a stolen base and a run scored across both games of Saturday's doubleheader versus the Red Sox.

Impact Hays extended his hitting streak to nine games Saturday -- he's batted .333 (12-for-36) in that span. The outfielder also notched his first stolen base of the season (on his second attempt) in the nightcap. He's slashing a sturdy .297/.361/.455 with five home runs, 22 RBI, 21 runs scored and 11 doubles through 183 plate appearances as a near-everyday player in the top half of the Orioles' lineup.

Rougned Odor - Swats three-run homer Odor went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 4-2 win over the Red Sox in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact The Orioles' scoring all came in the third inning, with Odor's blast serving as the biggest hit of the game. The second baseman saw his 11-game hitting streak snapped in the matinee, but he's still been effective at the plate for much of May. He's at a .230/.265/.417 slash line with four long balls, 22 RBI, 16 runs scored, 10 doubles and two triples through 43 contests this year.

Joey Krehbiel - Collects win in Game 2 Krehbiel (2-3) earned the win in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader versus the Red Sox. He allowed one hit and struck out two in 1.1 scoreless innings.

Impact Saturday was his second scoreless appearance in a row, the first time he's achieved that feat since May 9-10. The right-hander followed spot starter Denyi Reyes, who was effective with just one run allowed in 3.2 innings. Krehbiel has worked well in a versatile role this season, posting a 2.86 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB across 22 innings in 20 appearances. He's added five holds, and he's earned trust with manager Brandon Hyde to deliver quality pitching in a variety of situations.

Jorge López - Logs save in nightcap Lopez allowed an unearned run on one hit in 1.1 innings, earning the save in a 4-2 win over the Red Sox in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Lopez got the final out of the eighth inning without trouble. He stayed in for the ninth, where two batters got aboard before he ended the threat with a run-scoring fielder's choice and a double play. This was Lopez's second save in his last three appearances after he went a month between successful conversions. The 29-year-old right-hander is 6-for-8 in save opportunities with a 1.16 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 22:13 K:BB across 23.1 innings this season. He's also posted a 3-2 record, and he's yet to give up a home run in 21 outings.

Keegan Akin - Handed first loss Saturday Akin (1-1) took the loss in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader versus the Red Sox. He allowed two runs on two hits and a walk with one strikeout in 2.1 innings.

Impact Akin provided some length after a 4.1-inning start from Jordan Lyles. The Red Sox were able to get to Akin, with Bobby Dalbec hammering a sixth-inning solo home run while Christian Arroyo added an RBI single in the seventh. This was just the third time in 13 outings Akin's allowed runs, though he's given up a pair in each of those appearances. He's at a solid 1.71 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 29:9 K:BB in 31.2 innings overall, working exclusively in a multi-inning bullpen role.
