Back from IL, batting cleanup Wednesday The Orioles activated Basallo (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Basallo went 1-for-9 with a double and a 0:2 BB:K in two rehab games, and that was evidently enough to convince the Orioles he was ready to return to the active roster. The 22-year-old will start at first base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Yankees. Basallo has been shelved for most of the second half due to right shoulder inflammation.

Beginning assignment Sunday Basallo (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Shoulder inflammation has kept Basallo on the shelf for most of the second half, but after getting the green light to resume taking batting practice Friday, the young backstop is now ready to test his shoulder in a game setting. The Orioles have traded Adley Rutschman to Boston since Basallo landed on the IL, so the latter should have minimal competition for starts behind the plate once he's cleared to return.

Takes batting practice Friday Basallo (shoulder) is taking live batting practice Friday at Tropicana Field ahead of the Orioles' game against the Rays, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Basallo has been sidelined since July 19 due to right shoulder inflammation, but he's now swinging a bat and is expected to head out on a rehab assignment in the very near future. Basallo just turned 22 years old Thursday and owns a .756 OPS with 16 home runs, 46 RBI, 34 runs scored and a 26:82 BB:K across 311 trips to the plate this season. Newcomers Carlos Narvaez and Yohel Pozo have been handling catching duties while Basallo is out.

Nearing rehab assignment Manager Craig Albernaz said Tuesday that Basallo (shoulder) is close to participating in both his catching and hitting progressions and could be cleared for a rehab assignment with...

Impact The 21-year-old was shut down in late July after receiving an injection to help his right shoulder inflammation, and he appears close to being cleared for most baseball activities. Given that he'll require a rehab assignment and still has at least a few steps before getting to that point, Basallo is tracking toward a return from the injured list in the second half of August.

Expected to resume hitting soon Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias said Friday that Basallo (shoulder) will resume hitting within the next couple days, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Basallo has been shut down for more than a week as he allows his right shoulder inflammation to subside, and he's nearly ready to ramp things back up again. There is currently no timeline for the return of Basallo, and he could require a rehab assignment if his absence drags on much longer.
