Coby Mayo's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Baltimore Orioles rookie infielder Coby Mayo finds himself on the bench for Wednesday's contest at Fenway Park against the division-rival Boston Red Sox. Mayo will start on the pine in favor of Emmanuel Rivera at the hot corner, and he'll hit in the nine-hole against Red Sox right-hander Nick Pivetta. It continues to be a platoon setup at the hot corner in Baltimore between Mayo and Rivera with both Jordan Westburg (hand) and Ramon Urias (ankle) on the injured list. Mayo, the team's top prospect and eighth overall in all of MLB, has not taken advantage of his opportunity with both Westburg and Urias out and has looked overmatched at the plate in his first 32 at-bats with the O's. Mayo has gone 3-for-32 (.094) with no homers, no RBI, no stolen bases and three runs scored in his first 13 games at the major-league level.

Baltimore Orioles rookie third baseman Coby Mayo and outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez will both start Monday's game on the bench against the Chicago White Sox at Camden Yards. Emmanuel Rivera will get the start at third base and will bat ninth, while Austin Slater will start in right field and bat seventh against White Sox right-hander Chris Flexen. Anthony Santander is the designated hitter and is batting cleanup. Mayo, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, got the call-up on Sunday when rosters expanded and went 1-for-2 with a run scored and a strikeout in just his eighth big-league game. The 22-year-old has only two hits and 11 strikeouts in his first 23 major-league plate appearances in Baltimore, but he figures to see the majority of playing time at the hot corner for the O's with both Ramon Urias (ankle) and Jordan Westburg (hand) on the injured list.

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo rejoined the major league roster this weekend and will get the starting nod at the hot corner on Sunday afternoon. He will bat in the six-hole. Mayo got a brief stint in the major leagues earlier in August and held a disappointing .059/.200/.059 line across a seven-game stint. However, in Triple-A, the budding star posted an excellent .293/.369/.574 slash line with 22 home runs, 23 doubles, and 67 RBI across an 87-game sample size. Fantasy managers should expect the No.9 ranked prospect in baseball to continue to split time at the hot corner with Ramon Urias during the stretch run. DFS players should consider the power-hitting infielder this afternoon as he faces Colorado left-hander Ty Blach at the hitter-friendly Coors Field.

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo is set to rejoin the major league roster when the rosters expand, according to Matt Weyrich of the Baltimore Sun. The budding star got a brief taste of the major leagues earlier this summer but struggled as he went 1-for-17 across his first seven major league games. However, at Triple-A this season, the former fourth-round pick posted an incredible .293/.369/.574 slash line with 22 home runs, 23 doubles, and 67 RBI. Even though Mayo struggled through his first stint in the big leagues, fantasy managers should look to add the No.9 prospect in the sport, according to MLB.com, where he is available. He has high power potential and could still find an everyday role in the Baltimore lineup if he settles in at the plate.

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo hit another home run for Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday. It was the 25th minor-league homer of the season for Mayo and the 22nd with Norfolk. Major League Baseball's No. 10 overall prospect had a 1-for-17 stint in the majors with Baltimore but has returned to Triple-A and has shown off his power stroke again. In the minors this season, the 22-year-old is hitting .302/.378/.610 with 25 homers and 73 RBI. With rosters set to expand in September, Mayo is likely to get another chance to prove himself with the Orioles. Like Jackson Holliday, his second go-around could be more of a success after regaining some confidence in the minors.
