  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Receives rare rest day

    Santander is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

    Santander started Baltimore's last 24 games, but he will get a break on the heels of the Orioles sewing up a playoff spot Sunday. Santander went just 3-for-34 (.088) over his last eight games, so a day off probably will not hurt.

The 28-year-old is slashing .258/.329/.489 with 26 home runs, 79 RBI, 70 runs scored and four steals over 128 contests this year.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Rejoins lineup Sunday

    Santander (hand) will bat third as the Orioles' designated hitter Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    The 28-year-old underwent precautionary X-rays after being hit on the right hand by a pitch Saturday, but he apparently checked out fine since he's back in the lineup a day later. Santander has a .263/.324/.568 slash line with eight home runs, 21 RBI and 14 runs in 25 games since the start of August.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Sent for precautionary X-rays

    Santander will undergo precautionary X-rays after exiting Saturday's game versus the Diamondbacks when he was hit on the right hand by a pitch, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde is on record as saying he thinks the outfielder will be fine, which is an encouraging sign, but the X-rays will provide clarity. Santander has a team-leading 26 home runs for Baltimore, with eight of them coming since the start of August.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Departs following HBP on hand

    Santander was lifted from Saturday's game versus the Diamondbacks after being hit on the right hand by a pitch, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    A 94.7 mph cutter thrown by Luis Frias plunked Santander in the top of the ninth inning, and he walked off the field with the athletic trainer and into the clubhouse. It's possible it was a precaution since the Orioles had a late five-run lead at the time, but more information on his condition should be available after the game.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Pops homer Thursday

    Santander went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Santander's fourth-inning blast to Eutaw Street tied the game at 2-2. The outfielder was able to play the full game in right field after exiting late in Wednesday's contest for a defensive replacement. He's gone 4-for-8 with three homers and four RBI since returning from a back injury that kept him sidelined for three contests. The 28-year-old is up to a .252/.325/.480 slash line with 24 long balls, 69 RBI, 63 runs scored, three stolen bases and 29 doubles over 119 games this season.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Homers twice in return

    Santander went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Wednesday's 7-0 victory against the Blue Jays.

    Santander had missed three straight games due to a lower-back injury, but he returned to the lineup Wednesday while starting in right field. The outfielder didn't seem to have any lingering effects from the back issue, as he hit solo shots in the fifth and eighth frames to power Baltimore's offense. Santander did get pulled from the game for a defensive replacement in the ninth inning, but that appeared to be a consequence of the lopsided nature of the score rather than a result of aggravating the injury.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Back in lineup Wednesday

    Santander (back) will start in right field and bat third Wednesday versus the Blue Jays.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Back issue improving

    Santander's back is improving and he could be available off the bench Tuesday against the Blue Jays, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

    Tuesday marks four days since Santander was last in the lineup, so we probably can't completely rule out an injured list stint yet; however, this is still encouraging news. In the meantime, Ryan McKenna is getting the start against southpaw Yusei Kikuchi.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: On bench again Tuesday

    Santander (back) is out of the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jays.

    Santander remains day-to-day after his in-game exit Friday. He has been receiving ongoing treatment to help with a back issue, but he continues to get rest. In his place, Ryan McKenna will get the start in right field and bat eighth.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Remains on bench Sunday

    Santander is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics due to back soreness, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

    According to Chen, Santander has been receiving ongoing treatment to manage the back issue, but the 28-year-old will receive a second straight day off as the Orioles close out their series in Oakland. Baltimore has a timely off day Monday before beginning a homestand Tuesday, so Santander could be ready to go when the Orioles open their series with the Blue Jays.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Not starting Saturday

    Santander (undisclosed) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against Oakland.

    Santander left in the fifth inning of Friday's series opener, but the Orioles have yet to specify the reason why. It's likely he's dealing with some sort of injury, which also explains why he isn't in Saturday's lineup. Santander's return timeline won't become clear until the team explains the situation, but for now, it will be Ryan McKenna who starts in right field.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Exits with possible injury

    Santander was removed from Friday's game versus the Athletics, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    There's been no explanation given as to why Santander was removed in the fifth inning, but the Orioles had taken a 9-2 lead in the top of the frame so it could simply be a precautionary move. The 28-year-old had gone 1-for-3 with a run scored prior to being lifted.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Pops homer in loss

    Santander went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 9-2 loss to the Mariners.

    Santander got the Orioles within a run in the top of the fourth inning before the Mariners pulled away a half-inning later. While he has three homers over nine games in August, Santander has gone a paltry 7-for-33 (.212) for the month. The outfielder is up to 21 homers, 64 RBI, 59 runs scored, three stolen bases and 29 doubles this season with a .253/.330/.475 slash line through 111 contests. Given the competitiveness of the Orioles' lineup, Santander will likely need to shake this slump soon -- Colton Cowser isn't doing much to earn playing time, but Ryan O'Hearn has been seeing more action in the outfield of late, and Cedric Mullins' return from a groin injury will make for a more crowded picture.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Two extra-base hits in win

    Santander went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Mets.

    Santander struck out four times Thursday and sat out Friday, and it appears the mental reset did him some good. He's gone 7-for-25 (.280) with five extra-base hits and six RBI across his last six games. For the season, he's at a .257/.329/.480 slash line with 20 homers, 63 RBI, 58 runs scored and three stolen bases over 106 contests. He'll need to stay sharp at the plate to fend off playing time threats from Colton Cowser and Ryan O'Hearn.
