Oriole Notes: Westburg, Mullins, O’Neal

The Orioles have had a tough start to the season to say the least, but over the past eight games, they have finally started to turn things around with seven wins. This still put them in a 26-37 record and 7.5 games, which gave them a long chance to return to the playoff conversation this year. That being said, their abused lineup seems to be on the verge of getting some noteworthy reinforcements. The first of them, as the pass-through Rich Dubroff, broke away from Baltimore baseball, is the number for the infielder Jordan Westburg.
Westburg was an All-Star game last year and in a breakthrough sport he beat the Orioles’ main third baseman with a WRC+ of 125. Last year, he collected 2.8 FWAR in just 107 of 107 games, and his season was impressive despite a hand-made fracture that set him apart for most of the second half. The powerful sport brought him some huge expectations, and he entered the 26-year-old campaign, but he released some medium .217/.265/.391 (86 WRC+) (86 WRC+) in this year’s 98 sets.
Despite mediocre performance in that small sample early this season, the Orioles will certainly be happy to get Westburg back, Dubrov noted, interim manager Tony Mansolino Tell the reporter that it is “possible” The upcoming Tuesday happened. The Orioles Third Basemen collectively hit the season so far 0.243/.303/.305 (76 WRC+), a figure that even Westburg’s bland start to the season is easy to clearly state his performance in 2024. Ramon Urias He has been tasked with taking on the regular role in the position since he returned from the injury list, and although his number is overall overall league average, he has looked misunderstood since the IL returned (78 WRC+). Perhaps the return of Westburg and Urias’ return to part-time roles might add another quality routine to the lineup, while also allowing Urias to be more influential on the bench.
It is expected to be a midfielder in the relatively distant future Cedric MullinsDubroff hosts Mansolino expects to rejoin the lineup during the club’s upcoming The Homestand, which takes place from June 10 to June 15. While the wording seems to imply that he will be back by the end of the week, Mullins’ return remains a welcome boost for Orioles. His time on the injury list caused the club’s relegation both offense and defense, because Colton Cowser Forced to slide from left to center to accommodate addition Dylan Carlson Lineup is carried out every day. In 27 games against the Orioles this year, Carlson hit only .212/.274/.394, WRC+ at 89, while peripheral numbers suggest he benefits from good luck.
It’s a clear upgrade when moving Cowser back to his natural position and adding Mullins’ bats to the lineup on Carlson’s numbers, but it’s clear what version of Mullins will get when he returns. Mullins has an impressive 121 WRC+ overall for the season, but his appearance was incredible .292/.432/.551 (184 wrc+) in the first 111 sets of this year, but stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of April and stumbled at the end of his last license plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his first plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on his last plate, on The strain, fortunately, is less severe than the strains suffered by Westberg. While Mullins should certainly expect the difference between splitting agility start and his cold streak before his injury, whether he will have a significant impact on Baltimore this year, whether he will return to the playoffs or not, it will have significant consequences for Baltimore, as Mullins is arguably the best commodity for the team.
Outfielder is also outfielder Taylor O’NeillIt has been put on hold since mid-May due to a shoulder impact. O’Neill’s first year in Baltimore was disappointing in 24 games before his injury as he reached only .188/.280/.325 in 93 sets before making the shelf. However, his action recovery could provide the same push for the lineup as he had only one year to pull out a year from a dazzling sport in Boston, where he beat 31 home runs in just 113 games. MLB.com noted that O’Neill started his rehabilitation mission with Triple-A Norfolk yesterday, and while it’s unclear when the outfielder can return, it seems he can still return within the next week or two.
