Jorge Mateo Will Start a Rehab Assignment
Baltimore Orioles shortstop Jorge Mateo (elbow) is headed to Triple-A Norfolk for a rehab assignment and could rejoin the Orioles soon. He experienced discomfort in his surgically repaired left elbow after a collision with Heston Kjerstad on May 31. He was placed on the IL June 10 with the move retroactive to June 7, so he is eligible to return as soon as he's ready. The 29-year-old utility player hit just .180 with one home run and a .228 wOBA in his 32 games before landing on the injured list, but he had contributed 14 stolen bases, so he brings enough speed potential to be a streaming or bargain DFS option when he's healthy and in the Baltimore lineup.
