Dashes for steal No. 10 Mateo went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers.

Impact The 26-year-old utility player extended his current hitting streak to nine games while swiping his league-leading 10th base of the year, which already matches the career high in steals he set last season. Mateo's .243/.282/.378 slash line isn't particularly exciting, but as long as he keeps running, he'll have fantasy value in most formats.

Impact Mateo opened the scoring with a second-inning blast. That was the Orioles' lone run until Anthony Bemboom went yard in the seventh.

The versatile 26-year-old is up to a .243/.277/.383 slash line with eight RBI, 12 runs scored and nine stolen bases through 113 plate appearances.

Adds another steal Mateo went 1-for-4 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-1 win over the Royals.

Impact Mateo sparked the Orioles' fifth-inning rally with an RBI single before stealing second and scoring on a Trey Mancini single. This extended Mateo's hitting streak to five games, and he's gone 6-for-19 (.316) in that span. The 26-year-old owns a .242/.280/.358 slash line with nine steals, a home run, seven RBI and 10 runs scored through 28 contests.

Notches steal in matinee Mateo went 2-for-8 with a stolen base and a run scored across both games of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Royals.

Impact Mateo is now 5-for-15 across his last four games after recording a single in both of Sunday's contests. The shortstop is up to eight stolen bases in 27 games this season. He's added a .242/.281/.363 slash line with a home run, six RBI, nine runs scored, a triple and six doubles. The speed is a plus, but there's very little power in his bat.

Homers, triples Mateo went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a triple in a 5-3 win Thursday over Minnesota.

Impact Mateo tied the game 3-3 with a leadoff homer in the fifth inning and added a two-out triple in the seventh. After having only one multi-hit game in April, he has two in May and is 5-for-18 with four extra-base hits to start the month. The speedy shortstop hasn't hit for much power in the big leagues but did have as many as 19 homers in a season in the minors. If he's able to hit for some power to go along with his stolen base skills, he could be a valuable piece for the Orioles moving forward.

Drives in two runs Mateo went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run during Sunday's 9-5 win against Boston.

Impact The 26-year-old came up with the bases loaded and no outs during the sixth inning and delivered with a two-run double, and he came around to score two batters later. The double was Mateo's fifth extra-base hit of the season and only his second multi-hit game. He doesn't provide much pop with a .246/.297/.318 slash line and zero homers through 21 contests, though his baserunning brings some value as he ranks second in MLB with seven stolen bases while being caught only once.
