Orioles' Austin Hays: On bench again Sunday
Hays is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Cedric Mullins appears to have taken back a regular spot in the Baltimore outfield from Hays, who has now sat in each of the Orioles' last three matchups with right-handed starting pitchers. Hays should continue to replace either Mullins or Colton Cowser in the lineup when the Orioles face lefties.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Hitting bench Thursday
Hays is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.
Hays went 4-for-8 with a double, an RBI and a run while starting in left field in the first two games of the series in Atlanta, but he'll take a seat for the finale. With Hays on the bench, the Orioles will roll out an outfield of Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins and Anthony Santander from left to right.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Three hits in return to lineup
Hays went 3-for-4 with one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Atlanta.
Hays hadn't started since Thursday after getting plunked in the ribs during that day's game. He had half of the Orioles' hits in his return to the starting lineup, and he played the full game in left field, so it appears he's 100 percent after short absence. The outfielder has gone 14-for-40 (.350) over his last 15 contests with six extra-base hits and six RBI in that span. His cold start to the year is still evident in his .234/.291/.362 slash line through 103 plate appearances, but Hays could reclaim a near-everyday role if he keeps hitting well. He's added two home runs, 10 RBI, 11 runs scored and no stolen bases over 38 games.

Hays (ribs/back) will start in left field and bat fifth in Tuesday's game versus Atlanta.
It's Hays' first start since he was hit in the ribs by a pitch Thursday, although he did make one appearance off the bench since then. With Hays back in the lineup, Colton Cowser will slide over to center field and Cedric Mullins will be parked on the bench.

Hays hasn't made a start since he required X-rays after getting hit by a pitch in the left side of his ribs in the ninth inning of Thursday's loss to the Blue Jays. He did enter mid-game Saturday versus the Rays and doubled, and the hope is that he will be available off the bench again Monday.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Not starting Sunday
Hays (ribs) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
Sunday marks the third straight game Hays will not start after being hit by a pitch in the ribs Thursday against Toronto.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Getting ribs checked out
Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that Hays is being examined after being hit the ribs by a pitch during Thursday's game versus the Blue Jays, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
He was drilled in the left ribcage by a Yimi Garcia pitch in the top of the ninth inning. Hayes remained in the game to run the bases but was clearly in a lot of pain, so the Orioles wanted to get him checked out to make sure he didn't suffer any fractures. Aside from the hit by pitch, Hays struck out in his other three plate appearances Thursday.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Slugs two homers
Hays went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three total RBI in Monday's win over Toronto.
After coming into the night without a home run over his first 86 plate appearances of the season, Hays left the yard twice for the sixth multi-homer game of his career. The 28-year-old slugged both blasts off Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman, launching a two-run shot in the fourth inning and a solo home run in the seventh. Hays has seen inconsistent playing time over the past two weeks but is starting to heat up, batting 5-for-9 with three extra-base hits over his past three games.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Calf injury still lingering
Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said after Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays that Hays is still dealing with lingering effects from his left calf injury, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Hays was just activated from the 10-day injured list Monday following a three-week absence and evidently is still not feeling 100 percent. He delivered a pinch-hit double off the bench Wednesday but was immediately lifted for a pinch hitter. Despite Hays seemingly not being 100 percent healthy, a return to the IL doesn't seem to be in the cards. According to Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, Hyde is hopeful that Hays will be able to start Friday's game against the Mariners, though he could be deployed at designated hitter rather than in the outfield.

Orioles' Austin Hays: Returns from injured list
The Orioles reinstated Hays (calf) from the 10-day injured list Monday.
He'll be available off the bench for Monday's series opener versus the Blue Jays as the Orioles go with Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins and Anthony Santander as their starters in the outfield from left to right. Prior to landing on the shelf April 22 due to a tight calf, Hays had gotten off to a miserable start to the season, slashing .111/.200/.111 across 50 plate appearances. He showed more signs of life during his five-game rehab stint with Double-A Bowie (5-for-14 with two home runs, one double and three walks), but Hays may still have to settle for a fourth-outfielder role initially upon rejoining the big club. Hays should, however, play regularly against left-handed pitching, and he could re-emerge as an option to steal work against right-handed pitching from Cowser and Mullins, both of whom have struggled of late. Cowser is in the midst of a 7-for-50 stretch at the plate over his last 16 games, while Mullins has gone 5-for-50 over the same span and was actually benched against a pair of right-handed starters during this past weekend's series with the Diamondbacks.
