Reds Trade Infielder Christian Encarnacion-Strand to the Baltimore Orioles

The Orioles also moved Yaramil Hiraldo to the 60-day injured list and recalled Weston Wilson after Mountcastle fractured his left foot.

  • On Monday, the Baltimore Orioles placed first baseman Ryan Mountcastle on the 60-day injured list after he suffered a fractured left foot during Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants.
  • Mountcastle has struggled recently, batting.286 with limited playing time this season after the Orioles signed Pete Alonso, compounded by a right hamstring strain he dealt with in 2025.
  • To fill roster spots, the organization added Encarnacion-Strand to the 40-man roster and recalled utility player Weston Wilson from Triple-A Norfolk, while placing pitcher Yaramil Hiraldo on the 60-day injured list.
  • Encarnacion-Strand batted.233 with 21 home runs in 128 games and provides a cheaper alternative to the arbitration-eligible Mountcastle for future seasons.
  • Manager Craig Albernaz said Monday that the team has not yet determined if surgery will be required, with Mountcastle not expected to return until around the All-Star break.
