What It Means:

Santander will take the evening off as the Orioles get Austin Hays another night in the lineup. Hays will bat eighth and play in left field.

Santander is in less danger of losing playing time in the Orioles' crowded outfield than Hays, but could stand to find his swing sooner rather than later. While he has logged a subpar .180 batting average to open the year, he has made his 65 plate appearances count -- his 13 RBI rank near the top 10 in the Majors.
