Orioles Reinstate Ryan Mountcastle From Injured List
1 year agoThe Baltimore Orioles reinstated infielder Ryan Mountcastle (illness) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned left-hander Bruce Zimmermann to Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. Mountcastle isn't playing in the first-half finale on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins, but he's back with the big-league club after missing extended time due to vertigo. The 26-year-old's condition helps explain why he hit just .227 (55-for-242) in the first half of the season, but he also managed 11 home runs, 39 RBI and 34 runs scored in 60 games played. He hit .300 in his final 12 minor-league rehab games with Norfolk, and hopefully he'll be able to turn things around in the second half of the season as a regular for the Orioles.
