Matt Wieters

Matt Wieters won't be in Orioles' lineup Thursday

Baltimore Orioles catcher Matt Wieters is out of the Orioles' starting lineup Thursday afternoon against the Seattle Mariners.

What It Means:

Wieters went 3-for-4 with two doubles and a home run on Wednesday night, but the 29-year-old backstop will take his scheduled day of rest in the matinee at Camden Yards. Caleb Joseph is starting at catcher and batting eighth versus Mariners' right-hander Nate Karns.

Wieters is batting .256/.309/.400 across 97 plate appearances this season. He's posting a .313 wOBA with three jacks and 13 RBI's.
