Ryan Mountcastle Still Out Against Blue Jays
2 years agoBaltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (illness) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Mountcastle has been sidelined with an illness since last Friday, but hopefully he'll be able to return at some point this week. If he's unable to get back on the field in the next few days, the O's may consider putting him on the injured list. The 26-year-old right-handed hitter is batting just .227 (55-for-242) on the year, but he does have 11 home runs, 34 runs scored and 39 RBI in 60 games for an improved Baltimore offense. With Mountcastle out again on Tuesday, Ryan O'Hearn is starting at first base and batting cleanup against Blue Jays right-hander Chris Bassitt.
