The Orioles announced that outfielder Heston Kjerstad has been placed on the seven-day injured list for concussion-related injuries. Outfielder Kyle Stowers was called up from Triple-A Norfolk to take Kjerstad’s place on the active roster. The injury stems from a scary incident in last night’s 4-1 Orioles loss to the Yankees, as Kjerstad was hit in the head by a Clay Holmes fastball in the bottom of the ninth. Both benches cleared in the aftermath of the HBP, only adding to the tension between the two AL East rivals in this important series. Kjerstad naturally left the game after being hit, and though he was initially included in today’s lineup, he was a late scratch following the pregame workouts.
Since there was some idea that Kjerstad could’ve returned to the field today, it might imply that the IL placement is precautionary in nature. Due to the upcoming All-Star break, Kjerstad would miss only three games if is able to return after the seven-day minimum, plus Baltimore also has an off-day on July 22 if the club wanted to give him a bit of extra recovery time. Given the fluid nature of head-related injuries, it is also possible Kjerstad could miss far beyond seven days if he has indeed suffered a concussion.
The Phillies announced Friday that they’ve released veteran infielder/outfielder Whit Merrifield and recalled fellow infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
