Austin Hays - Page 19 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Returns to lineup Sunday Hays (finger) will start in left field and bat fifth in Sunday's game at Atlanta.

Impact Hays didn't start any of the Orioles' past four games while battling a bruised middle finger, but his ability to appear as a pinch runner in Friday's 9-4 win was a firm indication that he wasn't expected to require a trip to the injured list. He'll now take back his usual spot in left field, resulting in Kyle Stowers shifting over to right field while Anthony Santander serves as Baltimore's designated hitter.

Still sidelined Hays (finger) remains absent from the lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Impact A bruised middle finger has kept Hays on the bench for four straight games, though he's avoided the injured list and was able to appear as a pinch runner in Friday's series opener. Kyle Stowers will be the left fielder in his absence.

Held out again Hays (finger) remains out of the Orioles' lineup Friday in Atlanta, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hays hasn't played since Tuesday because of a bruised right middle finger. Ryan McKenna will be in left field Friday in his place.

MAY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out with bruised finger Hays is not in the Orioles' lineup again Thursday in Kansas City due to a bruised right middle finger, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hays injured the finger early last week and it's apparently still not quite 100 percent. The outfielder did say he would be available off the bench, so it sounds like he should be back in the lineup soon. Kyle Stowers is in left field again Thursday.

MAY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench again Hays is out of the Orioles' lineup for the second straight day Thursday in Kansas City, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Hays had a rough game Tuesday and will now take a seat for the second day in a row. Kyle Stowers will fill in again in left field.

MAY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes seat Wednesday Hays is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Impact Hays will get a day off to clear his head after he went 0-for-6 with four strikeouts in Tuesday's 11-7 win. Kyle Stowers will enter the lineup in Hays' stead, starting in left field and batting fifth.

MAY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returns with bang in twin bill Hays went 4-for-8 with two walks, a double and an RBI across both games of Saturday's doubleheader split with the Tigers.

Impact The 27-year-old outfielder had missed the prior two games due to a bruised hand but Hays appeared perfectly healthy in his return, hitting leadoff in both games as Detroit sent two southpaws to the mound and reaching base three times in each. The performance boosted Hays' slash line on the season to .319/.367/.549 with four homers, one steal, 10 RBI and 16 runs through 25 contests.

Returns at leadoff Saturday Hays (hand) is back in the lineup for the first half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Tigers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Hays will start in left field and bat leadoff versus the Tigers and left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez after missing a few games because of a bruised right hand. He boasts a .301/.341/.542 slash line with four home runs and one stolen base through 88 plate appearances this year with the Orioles.

APRIL 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

A few days away from return Hays (hand) said Thursday that he's a couple days away from returning as a hitter, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Hays is absent from the Orioles' starting lineup for a second straight game Thursday in Detroit after suffering a bruised right hand Tuesday when he got hit by a pitch. He's available to run and maybe even serve as a late-inning defensive replacement, but Hays probably won't be back in full until the latter part of the four-game series versus the Tigers.

APRIL 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Thursday Hays (hand) remains out of the Orioles' lineup for Thursday's game in Detroit.

Impact It's the second straight game Hays will miss after he suffered a bruised right hand as a result of a hit by pitch Tuesday. Ryan McKenna is getting a start in left field in Hays' absence.

APRIL 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to miss multiple games Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters that Hays' bruised right hand is "pretty sore" but better than Tuesday, and the team is hopeful he'll only miss a few days, Nathan Ruiz...

Impact Hays left Tuesday's game against the Red Sox with the contusion in his right hand, and he's out of the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against Boston. X-rays did return negative and Hyde is optimistic that Hays won't need a trip to the injured list, but it does appear Hays will likely miss at least one more game as he recovers.

APRIL 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Wednesday Hays (hand) is not in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Red Sox, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact After suffering a hand contusion in Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox, it's not surprising that Hays is unavailable for the series finale. Manager Brandon Hyde believes the outfielder is day-to-day though, which likely means that he'll be back in the lineup in the near future. Terrin Vavra will draw the start in left field and bat ninth against Boston on Wednesday.

Impact Hays was removed in favor of Tarrin Vavra with the contusion on his right hand, and Hyde told reporters that the team is fortunate that it's not a significant injury. Hays should be considered day-to-day with a chance to miss a game or two while he recovers, but it doesn't sound like this will require a stint on the injured list for the 27-year-old.

APRIL 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with bruised hand Hays was removed from Tuesday's game against the Red Sox and was diagnosed with a right hand contusion after X-rays came back negative, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Hays was struck in the hand on a bunt attempt during the third inning and exited the contest after finishing the at-bat. The 27-year-old appears to have avoided a serious injury and should be considered day-to-day, though he's still slated for additional medical testing.

Another multi-hit game Hays went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Athletics.

Impact It's the third multi-hit performance for Hays' in his last four games. The 28-year-old outfielder had quite a series against the A's, going 9-for-17 with two doubles and two home runs. Hays is now slashing .340/.380/.638 through his first 47 at-bats this season. He should have some upside for fantasy purposes this year, hitting in the middle of an improved Orioles lineup.
