Baltimore Orioles vs. Detroit Tigers - News - April 27, 2025 | FOX Sports

Colton Cowser - Not ready for baseball activities Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Monday that Cowser (thumb) is improving, but the outfielder hasn't yet been cleared to begin baseball activities, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com r...

Impact Cowser has presumably been able to keep up with his conditioning since fracturing his left thumb March 30, but the Orioles likely won't be able to pinpoint a firmer target date for him to come off the 10-day injured list until he's ready to hit and play the outfield without discomfort. At the time Cowser suffered the injury, Hyde suggested that the 25-year-old would likely be out for around 6-to-8 weeks, so late May to early June could represent a loose range for his potential return.

Zach Eflin - Another side session on tap Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that Eflin (lat) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session Tuesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact After landing on the 15-day injured list April 9 due to a right lat strain, Eflin was cleared to throw off a mound for the first time this past Friday. All apparently went well during that side session, and Eflin will repeat the activity again Tuesday, though perhaps with greater intensity and with more throwing volume. If Eflin checks out fine after Tuesday's session, he could advance to facing hitters in live batting practice.

Kyle Bradish - Continuing to throw in 'pen Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that Bradish (elbow) completed another bullpen session Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Bradish has been throwing side sessions for more than two weeks, and though he's checked out fine so far, the Orioles haven't determined when he might be ready to take the next step forward in his rehab program by facing hitters. The right-hander is expected to be ready to make his 2025 debut at some point in the second half of the season, assuming he hits no snags in his recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last June.

Jordan Westburg - Deemed day-to-day Orioles manager Brandon Hyde classified Westburg as day-to-day Monday due to a sore hamstring, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports. "We're staying optimistic and hopefu...

Impact Westburg is out of the lineup for Monday's series opener versus the Yankees, marking his second consecutive absence due to the hamstring issue. According to Jake Rill of MLB.com, Westburg is scheduled to undergo further testing Monday as the Orioles look to gain a better understanding regarding the extent of his injury. If the MRI reveals a strain, the 26-year-old infielder could require a stint on the injured list.

Kyle Gibson - Confirmed for season debut Tuesday Orioles manager Brandon Hyde confirmed Monday that Gibson (back) will be recalled from High-A Aberdeen to make his season debut Tuesday versus the Yankees, Matt Weyrich of The Balt...

Impact Gibson has been getting ramped up with three starts in the minors after signing with the Orioles in late March. He dealt with some back tightness in his last outing at Aberdeen, but the veteran righty has bounced back well from that injury and is ready to join the Baltimore rotation. Gibson threw 78 pitches and went five innings in his last start, so he should be available for close to a full workload Tuesday.
