Aaron Hicks - Out again with sore back Hicks is out of the lineup again Wednesday versus the Padres due to back soreness, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Impact This back issue popped up Monday, in the very first game since Hicks returned from a three-week IL stint for a hamstring strain. He was said to be available off the bench Tuesday but did not ultimately appear in Baltimore's lopsided 10-3 loss to San Diego.

Austin Hays - Homer, double in loss Hays went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Tuesday's 10-3 loss to the Padres.
Impact Hays was a bright spot in an otherwise ugly game for the Orioles. The outfielder has needed a spark in recent weeks -- he has just three multi-hit efforts over 28 games since the All-Star break, a span in which he's hitting a mere .192. The slump has knocked his slash line down to .281/.321/.445 with 11 homers, 46 RBI, 54 runs scored, two stolen bases and 27 doubles over 106 contests. He's seen less playing time lately, and with Aaron Hicks (hamstring/back) on the roster again, Hays can't afford to stay cold at the plate much longer.

Jack Flaherty - Lit up in San Diego Flaherty (8-8) allowed seven runs on four hits and four walks while striking out three over three innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Padres.
Impact Most of the damage came in a five-run first inning, which was punctuated by a Gary Sanchez grand slam. Flaherty has shown little consistency over his three starts with the Orioles, allowing 11 runs over 14 innings with a 1-2 record for his new team. Overall, the right-hander is at a 4.73 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 125:62 K:BB through 123.2 innings between Baltimore and St. Louis. With two off days within the next week, Flaherty is expected to have a full week between starts before next taking the mound at home against the Blue Jays.

Aaron Hicks - Available off bench Hicks was removed from Monday's game against San Diego with back soreness, but he is available off the bench for Tuesday's contest, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Hicks went 2-for-3 with a run scored in his return from the injured list before making an early exit. Luckily, his injury isn't severe and won't completely rule him out of any games. Hicks is slashing .257/.297/.286 with three RBI across 37 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

Gunnar Henderson - Plates three runs Monday Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Monday's 4-1 win over the Padres.
Impact Henderson's bases-clearing opposite-field double off Yu Darvish in the top of the fifth inning provided all the support rookie right-hander Grayson Rodriguez (one run allowed over seven innings) would require as the Orioles took the series opener. The two-hit performance was Henderson's first since Aug. 4, with the 22-year-old slashing just .103/.156/.207 over the eight games in between.
