Orioles Reinstate Cedric Mullins and Jordan Westburg From Injured List
- The Baltimore Orioles reinstated All-Stars Jordan Westburg and Cedric Mullins from the injured list on Tuesday before their series against the Detroit Tigers.
- Westburg has been out of action since late April due to a left hamstring injury that worsened in mid-May, causing a pause in his rehabilitation until the end of that month, while Mullins began his recovery from a right hamstring strain sustained in late May.
- Westburg participated in eight minor league rehab games with Norfolk, batting.393 and recording six extra-base hits, while Mullins returned to the Orioles without a rehab assignment, and both players contributed to the team nearing full strength.
- Before injury, Westburg hit.217 with two doubles in 23 games, Mullins leads Baltimore with 10 home runs, and the Orioles optioned struggling outfielder Heston Kjerstad to Triple-A after a.192 average.
- The roster moves, including designating infielder Emmanuel Rivera for assignment and sending outfielder Jordyn Adams outright to Triple-A, lowered the 40-man roster to 38 players, positioning the team for upcoming contests.
