Jordan Westburg Could Return This Weekend
Jordan Westburg (hamstring) was scheduled to play in minor-league rehab games with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday and Wednesday before the Orioles decide on his next step, according to The Baltimore Banner's Andy Kostka. In four rehab games, Westburg has gone 4-for-15 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored for Norfolk. Although the 26-year-old wasn't exactly tearing the cover off the baseball earlier this year before he got injured, Westburg is expected to return to Baltimore as their regular at third base, possibly this weekend in a series in Sacramento against the Athletics. For the volume alone, Westburg will be valuable as a corner infielder in deep-mixed leagues. He went 20-for-92 (.217) with four homers and six RBI before landing on the IL, but the former first-rounder was a first-time All-Star in 2024, when he slugged 18 homers and drove in 63.
