Baltimore Orioles first baseman/designated hitter Ryan O'Hearn and outfielder Cedric Mullins are sitting out Monday's game against the New York Mets at Citi Field with a left-hander on the mound. Eloy Jimenez is serving as Baltimore's DH and will hit sixth, while rookie Colton Cowser will start in center field and bat seventh against Mets left-hander David Peterson. O'Hearn has only faced lefties 29 times this year, going 7-for-27 (.259) with none of his 12 homers. Meanwhile, Mullins has hit just .143 (11-for-77) with one of his 13 homers in 2024 against southpaws, so it's no surprise that both players are sitting to begin the week. Cowser, who also bats from the left side, is hitting .229 (22-for-96) with four of his 18 homers against lefties in his first MLB season. He has never faced Peterson. Jimenez hasn't homered against a lefty this year but has gone 16-for-55 (.291) against them.
Baltimore Orioles first baseman/designated hitter Ryan O'Hearn and third baseman Ramon Urias are both out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the visiting Washington Nationals at Camden Yards. Eloy Jimenez is serving as the designated hitter and is batting sixth, while rookie Coby Mayo is at the hot corner and is hitting eighth against rookie left-hander DJ Herz. Since being acquired from the Chicago White Sox at the trade deadline at the end of July, Jimenez has gone 12-for-25 (.480) with two doubles and four RBI in nine games for the O's. Mayo, who is Baltimore's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is still searching for his first major-league hit through six games. He has struck out in 10 of his first 17 plate appearances and hasn't taken advantage of Jordan Westburg's (hand) injury while taking a back seat to the veteran Urias.
Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan O'Hearn (knee) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the hosting Miami Marlins, serving as the designated hitter and batting cleanup against Marlins right-hander Kyle Tyler. O'Hearn is good to go following Monday's off day after he sat out of Sunday's contest with knee soreness. The 30-year-old left-handed power bat will always have some DFS appeal while hitting cleanup in one of the most potent lineups in baseball, especially while facing a right-handed pitcher. O'Hearn currently has an .809 OPS with a .274/.342/.466 slash line and 12 home runs and 38 RBI in 295 plate appearances over 81 games in his second year with the O's. He's hitting .276 (68-for-246) with all 12 of his long balls in 2024 against righties.
Baltimore Orioles rookie outfielder Heston Kjerstad and first baseman/designated hitter Ryan O'Hearn are out of the lineup on Wednesday against the visiting Chicago Cubs with left-hander Shota Imanaga on the mound. Catcher Adley Rutschman will serve as the designated hitter and bat second, while Austin Hays will start in left field and bat sixth. James McCann will do the catching and hit in the nine-hole. Kjerstad was in the lineup the last two games when the team faced a left-hander, but he'll take a seat on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has fared much better in 18 games with the O's this year than he did in his debut in 2023, as he's gone 14-for-46 (.304) with three homers, two doubles and 12 RBI in 54 trips to the plate. His presence in Baltimore has led to more time on the bench for fellow rookie Colton Cowser, who is in center field and batting eighth on Wednesday.
Baltimore Orioles first baseman/designated hitter Ryan O'Hearn and outfielder Cedric Mullins will take a seat on Tuesday against the visiting Cleveland Guardians with a left-hander on the mound. Infielder Ramon Urias is also starting on the bench. Adley Rutschman will serve as the designated hitter and bat leadoff, rookie Colton Cowser is in center field and batting ninth, and Jordan Westburg is playing third and hitting fifth against Guardians left-hander Logan Allen. James McCann is catching and batting eighth. O'Hearn and Mullins typically hit the bench with lefties on the mound. McCann is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak, going 7-for-22 with eight RBI. Mullins has become a part-time player in Baltimore this year given his overall struggles at the plate. He's hitting just .204.
