Ryan Mountcastle (triceps) back Monday for Orioles

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ryan Mountcastle (triceps) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against left-hander Tyler Alexander and the Detroit Tigers.

What It Means:

Mountcastle was held out Sunday after he was hit by a pitch in the triceps on Saturday, but he will be the Orioles' designated hitter and No. 3 batter in Monday's opener. Adley Rutschman will start at catcher over an idle Robinson Chirinos.

Mountcastle has a $2,500 salary on Monday and numberFire’s models project him for 11.1 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Orioles’ implied total (4.64) is No. 4 in the majors today out of 18 teams.
