Jorge Mateo Pulled From Rehab Game With Hamstring Issue
Jorge Mateo (elbow, hamstring) was pulled from his minor-league rehab game on Sunday night with Triple-A Norfolk due to a hamstring injury, according to The Baltimore Banner's Andy Kostka. The team continues to evaluate his hamstring and doesn't know the severity just yet. The 30-year-old initially landed on the 10-day injured list with inflammation in his left elbow and had gone 6-for-13 with a home run, four RBI and two stolen bases in his four rehab games with Norfolk. Depending on the severity of Mateo's hamstring injury, he might not be able to return from the IL until after the mid-July All-Star break on July 18. The Dominican infielder really is only fantasy relevant in AL-only leagues when he's healthy for his speed as a backup infielder for the O's. He's gone 11-for-61 (.180) on the year with a homer, three RBI, seven runs and 14 stolen bases.
