Placed on IL with back injury The Orioles placed Eflin on the 15-day injured list Monday with low-back discomfort.

Impact Eflin was removed from Saturday's start versus Tampa Bay due to the injury, and a trip to the IL was the expected outcome. The veteran right-hander will be eligible to return at the start of the second half, and he should have a good chance to return around that time, barring any setbacks.

Likely bound for IL Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino said that Eflin (back) is "trending toward an IL" stint, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Baltimore will likely evaluate Eflin over the next 24 hours before deciding whether or not to deactivate him, but since the All-Star break is looming and he previously spent time on the injured list in 2023 and 2024 due to back issues, it makes sense for the club to shut him down for a bit. Eflin was removed from his start in Saturday's 11-3 loss to the Rays due to a lower-back strain, but he told Jake Rill of MLB.com that the injury first cropped up in his pregame bullpen session. With Cade Povich in the midst of a rehab assignment and seemingly on track to return from the injured list next weekend or early next week, the Orioles have a replacement in the rotation for Eflin lined up.

Dealing with lower-back strain Eflin was removed from Saturday's game versus Tampa Bay due to a lower-back strain, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Eflin noticed the issue while warming up in the bullpen prior to his start but thought he could pitch through it. However, the right-hander struggled through a four-run first inning before he was pulled, and it's logical to assume that the back issue contributed to the rough frame. Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino indicated following the contest that Eflin may need to get imaging done on his back, and it's unclear at this time if the veteran hurler will need a stint on the IL. The Orioles do have one injured starter close to returning to the rotation, as Cade Povich (hip) threw 75 pitches in a rehab start Thursday.
