Baltimore Orioles address Ryan Mountcastle's injury setback
Summary

Baltimore Orioles manager Craig Albernaz commented on Ryan Mountcastle's ongoing injury issues during a media session. Mountcastle has been sidelined for nearly the entire 2026 season after breaking his left foot earlier this year. Although he was set for a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk, the team decided to reevaluate him instead. Albernaz noted that the first baseman is not fully healthy, raising doubts about his ability to contribute this season. The Orioles currently sit four games under.500 but remain in contention for an AL playoff spot, two games behind the final Wild Card position.
