INJURIES

Clubs first exhibition homer Kjerstad went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers.
Impact Kjerstad launched his first homer of spring training Sunday. The 27-year-old is battling for an Opening Day roster spot, but Baltimore's offseason acquisition of Taylor Ward certainly makes it more difficult for Kjerstad to make the cut this spring. Dylan Beavers and Leody Taveras appear to have a leg up on Kjerstad to open camp, but the Orioles are likely to have the three outfielders battle it out during exhibition action to determine who makes the team.

Kjerstad at full health in O's camp, believes '26 will be 'good year for me' SARASOTA, Fla. -- Heston Kjerstad's challenging start to the 2025 season (his third in the big leagues) led to a mid-June demotion to Triple...
FEBRUARY 15 • MLB.COM
Will be full go for start of spring Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said Friday that Kjerstad (fatigue) will be a full participant during spring training, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Kjerstad didn't play after late July last season due to what the Orioles referred to as fatigue, and he later underwent treatment for an undisclosed medical condition. It's unclear whether the issues were related to his previously disclosed myocarditis diagnosis, but either way, it seems Kjerstad is now in the clear health-wise. Kjerstad slashed .192/.240/.327 in 54 games for the Orioles and .149/.225/.248 over 27 contests with Triple-A Norfolk in 2025, but he had a 112 wRC+ in his first two years with Baltimore and a 156 wRC+ in 2024 at Norfolk. While he will enter spring training healthy, Kjerstad currently looks to be buried on the Orioles' outfield depth chart.
JANUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE
Having treatments for medical issue Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias said Monday that Kjerstad has been undergoing treatments for a medical condition, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Kjerstad last played at Triple-A Norfolk on July 25 due to what the team had described as fatigue. Elias declined to say whether the treatments were related to myocarditis, a condition Kjerstad was diagnosed with shortly after being drafted in 2020 which delayed his pro debut until 2022. Kjerstad has responded well to the treatments and is expected to be ready for spring training. It's possible Kjerstad's medical issue affected his performance in 2025, as he slashed a woeful .192/.240/.327 in 54 games for the Orioles and an even-worse .149/.225/.248 over 27 contests with Norfolk.
SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
On Triple-A IL due to fatigue Kjerstad is on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Norfolk due to fatigue, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Impact Kjerstad has not played since July 25 and is slashing only .149/.225/.248 in 26 games with Norfolk since being optioned in early June. Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino indicated that the team should have more information on Kjerstad's status later this week.

Cleared to return Kjerstad (knee) went 0-for-4 in Sunday's game against Triple-A Memphis.
Impact Kjerstad was out of the lineup for a few days over the weekend after fouling a ball off his right knee, but he's managed to avoid a trip to the 7-day injured list. The Arkansas product was demoted to Triple-A on June 10 and is batting .167 with one home run, two RBI and three runs scored in five games since.

Exits Triple-A contest Kjerstad exited Thursday's game with Triple-A Norfolk after fouling a ball off his right knee, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Thursday's game was Kjerstad's fourth game with Norfolk since being demoted by Baltimore. He had gone just 2-for-15 with five strikeouts in total prior to exiting Thursday's game. The severity of the injury is not known.

Taking seat Sunday Kjerstad is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Injuries are beginning to mount in the Baltimore outfield with Ramon Laureano (ankle) and Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) recently joining Colton Cowser (thumb) on the injured list, which has afforded Kjerstad a longer leash in the everyday lineup. However, despite starting each of the last five games, Kjerstad recorded just three hits in 20 at-bats to bring his batting average down to .202 on the season. He'll get Sunday off to clear his head while Jorge Mateo spells him in left field.
