Could be limited in spring training Orioles general manager Mike Elias said Friday that Mateo (elbow) might not be fully recovered for the start of spring training, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Impact It's a contradiction of what Elias said in October about Mateo's recovery from UCL reconstruction surgery on his left (non-throwing) elbow, although the revised timetable does not seem to be the result of a setback. Elias did add that he expected Mateo to be ready for close to a full 162-game schedule. Mateo is slated for a utility role with the Orioles in 2025.

Expected to be ready for spring Orioles general manager Mike Elias said Thursday that he expects Mateo (elbow) to more or less be full-go for the start of spring training, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Mateo required UCL reconstruction surgery on his left elbow in late August for an injury he initially suffered in late July. Because the operation was on his non-throwing elbow, it significantly reduces the recovery time. Mateo is eligible for arbitration for a final time this winter and should be back in a utility role for the Orioles in 2025.

Out for season Mateo underwent UCL reconstruction surgery on his left elbow Wednesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Mateo's procedure will put an early end to his season, so he'll finish the 2024 campaign with a .229/.267/.401 slash line alongside five homers, 18 RBI and 13 stolen bases across 68 games. The 29-year-old will enter his final year of arbitration eligibility this offseason, though he will likely be limited to a bench role next season now that Jackson Holliday has arrived in the majors.

Shifts to 60-day IL The Orioles transferred Mateo (elbow) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.
Impact Mateo was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left elbow subluxation and he will now be forced to miss two months of action while recovering. He'll be eligible to return from the IL in late September if he's able to avoid any setbacks. With Mateo unavailable, top prospect Jackson Holliday is set to be called up from Triple-A Norfolk to join the major-league roster in Baltimore on Wednesday ahead of the team's series finale with the Blue Jays. Holliday will likely take over as the Orioles' primary second baseman.

Surgery undetermined The Orioles are waiting for the swelling in Mateo's left elbow to subside before determining whether he needs surgery, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Mateo landed on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a partially dislocated elbow, the result of a collision with teammate Gunnar Henderson earlier this week. The Orioles won't know more about a potential timetable for the infielder's return until the swelling goes down, so more should be available on his status in the coming days.

Placed on IL with elbow injury The Orioles placed Mateo on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left elbow subluxation.
Impact Mateo suffered the injury during Tuesday's game against the Marlins in a collision with teammate Gunnar Henderson. It's unclear how much time the infielder might miss, but an absence longer than the minimum 10 days is certainly possible.

Headed for injured list The Orioles will place Mateo on the 10-day injured list Thursday due to a dislocated left elbow, Paige Leckie of MLB.com reports.
Impact Mateo suffered the injury during a collision with Gunnar Henderson while attempting to make a diving play in Tuesday's contest. Connor Norby, who was added to Baltimore's taxi squad Wednesday, will be recalled from Triple-A to fill the opening in the Orioles' infield and is expected to start Thursday's series finale against the Marlins.

Taking seat Wednesday Mateo (arm) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.
Impact Mateo will head to the bench after he was forced out of Tuesday's 6-3 loss with a left arm injury that stemmed from a collision in the field with teammate Gunnar Henderson. The Orioles sent Mateo in for an MRI and seem to be viewing him as day-to-day, but a trip to the injured list could still be in the cards for the 29-year-old. Baltimore added infielder Connor Norby to its taxi squad Wednesday and could formally call him up from Triple-A Norfolk if Mateo needs to go on the IL.

Impact Manager Brandon Hyde said Mateo will need to undergo an MRI in order to have a good idea of what the 29-year-old is dealing with, but a clean X-ray is an encouraging sign. Until the results of Mateo's MRI come back, he should be viewed as day-to-day.

Impact Mateo collided with Gunnar Henderson after both players dove for a groundball in the third inning, causing Mateo's arm to bend awkwardly. He was immediately taken out of the game and replaced by Ramon Urias, and the Orioles' training staff will presumably take him in for imaging to determine the extent of his injury.
