Scouting Report
Updated May 20, 2026
Ryan Mountcastle is on the 60-day injured list after suffering a left foot fracture on April 13, 2026. General Manager Mike Elias indicated he is targeting a late June or July return, with the earliest possible return being June 12. The Orioles expect him to need several weeks beyond the minimum IL stint before ramping up baseball activities. Mountcastle would provide value as a platoon option against left-handed pitchers, as the team currently lacks depth at his position.
Strengths

Weaknesses
- - Left foot fracture is significant injury
