Cedric Mullins To Return To Lineup On Thursday
9 months agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins (hamstring) is scheduled to return to the team's Grapefruit League lineup on Thursday, according to manager Brandon Hyde. Mullins left a spring training game last week with a right-hamstring discomfort last week and has been held out of action since as a precaution. It appears the 29-year-old left-handed-hitting outfielder is fine now, though, so he will return to game action on Thursday and should be fine for Opening Day at the end of March. After breaking out in 2021 with a 30-30 campaign and a .291 batting average, Mullins' power and average have come down in the last two seasons. It's looking more like his 2021 season was an outlier, but Mullins, when healthy, can still provide an interesting mix of power and speed in a strong Baltimore lineup.
