Orioles Place Ryan Mountcastle on 60-Day IL With Broken Foot

Overview

• Ryan Mountcastle went to the 60-day injured list after he fractured the fourth metatarsal in his left foot while legging out a double.
• Baltimore selected utility player Weston Wilson from Triple-A Norfolk to join the major-league roster.
• The Orioles acquired Christian Encarnacion-Strand for cash and optioned him to Norfolk, and they moved Yaramil Hiraldo to the 60-day injured list to open a 40-man spot.
• The pitching staff also changed as the club recalled Dean Kremer and optioned Cade Povich to Norfolk.
• Reports project at least a two-month absence with the earliest return in mid-June, and manager Craig Albernaz said the decision on surgery is still unresolved.
