    • Logs first steal
      Estrada went 0-for-3 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Red Sox.

      Advice: Estrada reached on an error and recorded his first steal of the year to get into scoring position, though he was left on base. Considering he logged a combined 44 steals over the previous two seasons, it's unusual that he's been less active on the basepaths. It doesn't help that he's batting just .229 with a .248 on-base percentage for the year, though those numbers improve to .291 and .316, respectively, over the last 16 games. Estrada is still seeing a starting role at second base despite the early struggles, while Tyler Fitzgerald remains in more of a bench role. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:38 am

    • Returning after one-game absence
      Westburg (illness) will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game versus the Yankees.

      Advice: Westburg sat out Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Athletics because of a stomach bug, but he's feeling well enough to return to the lineup a day later. The 25-year-old has produced a .903 OPS in 25 games for the Orioles this season. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:36 pm

    • Opens scoring with homer
      Estrada went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Estrada opened the scoring when he took Jared Jones deep in the third inning. Estrada has gone 2-for-7 over two games since he recovered from a minor hamstring issue. The second baseman is slashing a modest .235/.255/.422 with four homers, 13 RBI, 12 runs scored and no stolen bases through 28 contests. His power is in line with previous years, but Estrada logged 20-plus steals in both 2022 and 2023, so it's a little unusual to see him getting less involved on the basepaths.

    • Sits with illness
      Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Westburg wasn't available for Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Athletics due to a stomach bug, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The illness brought an end to a streak of 16 straight starts for Westburg, who has a .304/.360/.543 slash line through 25 games this season. The 25-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus the Yankees. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:01 pm

    • Takes seat Sunday
      Westburg is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

      Advice: Westburg started the past 16 games and posted a 1.057 OPS during that stretch, but he'll receive a breather Sunday while in the midst of a 4-for-20 slump. Jorge Mateo will step in at the keystone and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:34 am

    • Jordan Westburg takes seat Sunday vs. A’s
      Jordan Westburg is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Athletics.

      Advice: Westburg has been outstanding to begin 2024 with a .903 OPS, but he’ll get a day of rest for the finale against the A’s. Ramon will hit eighth and handle the hot corner against Paul Blackburn and the Oakland bullpen to begin Sunday’s contest. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:26 am

    • Thairo Estrada returns to Giants lineup
      Thairo Estrada (hamstring) returned to the Giants’ starting lineup on Saturday.

      Advice: Estrada was pulled from Wednesdays game against the Mets due to tightness in his hamstring, then sat out Friday’s contest as a precautionary measure. He’s back in there at second base and batting eighth against Martin Perez and the Pirates on Saturday night. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:11 pm

    • Returns to lineup
      Estrada (hamstring) is starting at second base and batting eighth Saturday against the Pirates, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Hamstring tightness forced Estrada out of Wednesday's game against the Mets and prevented him from starting Friday, but it seems to no longer be a problem heading into Saturday's contest. The 28-year-old has gone 4-for-16 with two RBI and three runs scored across his last five games. Rotowire.com Saturday, 3:04 pm

    • Not starting Friday
      Estrada (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Estrada went 0-for-2 in Wednesday's game against the Mets before being pulled due to left hamstring tightness. The Giants had an off day Thursday, but the 28-year-old will sit out for at least one more game while managing his injury. Tyler Fitzgerald will start at second base Friday and bat eighth against Pirates right-hander Quinn Priester. Rotowire.com Friday, 3:18 pm
