Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) will return to the starting lineup on Thursday against the New York Yankees. Urias is slated to bat eighth and cover the hot corner. Urias has been sidelined over the past week due to this injury. However, seeing him return to the starting nine quite quickly suggests the injury is not overly serious. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status in case he faces a setback. Last season, Urias appeared in 100 contests in Baltimore. Across this stint, he held a .254/.322/.423 slash line with nine doubles and 11 home runs. He swiped one bag and held a strong 18.3 percent strikeout rate. During the regular season, Urias will likely see time as a depth option in the infield. He could have an increased role early in the campaign if Gunnar Henderson (intercostal) is unable to play at the start of the season.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) is expected to return to the Grapefruit League lineup on Thursday against the division-rival New York Yankees after an off day on Wednesday, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The 30-year-old veteran has been dealing with some minor hamstring soreness of late but should be ready to go later in the week. If shortstop Gunnar Henderson (intercostal) is forced to open the year on the injured list, Urias would likely start at second base for the Orioles, with young infielder Jackson Holliday likely shifting to the 6. If all of Baltimore's infielders are healthy, Urias profiles as a bench player in 2025 who can fill in at second or third base when needed. The Mexican infielder hit .254/.322/.423 with 11 home runs, 37 RBI and 39 runs scored in 100 games in his fifth year with the team in 2024. Given his lack of playing time, Urias is only an option in AL-only leagues.

The Baltimore Orioles and infielder Ramon Urias settled on a one-year, $3.15 million deal to avoid salary arbitration on Thursday. Even before missing time with an ankle injury, Urias was seeing less playing time in Baltimore. When the 30-year-old veteran infielder did play, he was solid, slashing .254/.322/.423 with 11 home runs, 37 RBI and 39 runs scored in 100 games played. Urias made plenty of contact and hit more fly balls, with his 11 homers representing the second-highest total of his career. He typically doesn't make a ton of loud contact at the plate, though, and with a bench role likely in 2025, there's not enough upside to consider Urias in shallow-mixed fantasy leagues. However, Urias can play almost everywhere on the infield, so an injury could quickly open up regular playing time for him.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (ankle) was activated off the 10-day injured list on Sunday morning and will bat in the eight spot this afternoon as the Orioles look to claim the rubber match against the Detroit Tigers. Urias has been sidelined since the end of August with a sprained ankle. Fantasy managers should expect him to see the majority of starts at the hot corner during the remainder of the regular season and in October. Before the injury, the 30-year-old posted a .252/.327/.427 line with ten round-trippers and one stolen base. Urias is worth a look as a value play in DFS as the Tigers will have bullpen game this afternoon.

Baltimore Orioles infielders Jordan Westburg (hand) and Ramon Urias (ankle) will both need multiple minor-league rehab games before returning to the big-league roster, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The skipper said he wouldn't be surprised if Urias comes off the injured list first. Westburg was expected to begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday as he works his way back from a fractured right hand that has kept him out since early August. The 25-year-old took batting practice on Tuesday and could rejoin the club early next week. Westburg is sitting on 18 homers on the year and should be Baltimore's preferred option at the hot corner when he's back, although they could ease him in and have him share playing time with Urias to close out the regular season in September. Urias has been out since late August with a right-ankle sprain.

Baltimore Orioles running back Ramon Urias (ankle) is progressing with his sprained right ankle but has yet to resume baseball activities. However, Urias is confident that he can play before the regular season ends at the end of September. The 30-year-old veteran infielder suffered a sprained ankle on Aug. 31 and landed on the 10-day injured list. With Jordan Westburg (hand) still also on the IL, the Orioles have been forced to mix and match at the hot corner with rookie Coby Mayo, Emmanuel Rivera and Nick Maton. Mayo has the most upside of the trio as one of the team's top prospects, but he's struggled in his first 23 big-league at-bats with just two hits, three runs scored, three walks and 13 strikeouts in nine games played entering Friday. Depending on when Westburg returns, Urias could become the top option at the hot corner if he returns before the postseason.

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that infielder Ramon Urias (ankle) is still on crutches for his sprained ankle and there's no timetable for his return from the 10-day injured list. "I don't know how long that's going to be. A sprained ankle could be two to four weeks. Who knows?" Hyde said. Basically, Urias isn't guaranteed to return from the IL before the end of the regular season in September. The 30-year-old veteran sprained his right ankle against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field on Saturday and was put on the IL on Sunday. At least until Jordan Westburg (hand) returns from his own IL stint, the Orioles are moving forward with top prospect Coby Mayo at the hot corner, with Emmanuel Rivera also seeing some time there. It's bad timing for Urias, who had gone 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers, a double, triple, eight RBI and a steal in his last eight games dating back to Aug. 23.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (ankle) was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier on Sunday with a right ankle sprain. In a corresponding move, the Orioles promoted their top third base prospect, Coby Mayo, from Triple-A Norfolk. Urias suffered this injury during Saturday's game and will now sit out for at least the next ten games. Fantasy managers should expect Mayo to see most staring opportunities at the hot corner while Urias remains out. Before the injury, Urias was carrying a strong .320 AVG across his previous eight games. Even though Mayo struggled through his first taste of the major leagues earlier in August, he should be rostered in all formats going forward, given the elite power potential he has shown at Triple-A this summer.

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/designated hitter Ryan O'Hearn and third baseman Ramon Urias are both out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the visiting Washington Nationals at Camden Yards. Eloy Jimenez is serving as the designated hitter and is batting sixth, while rookie Coby Mayo is at the hot corner and is hitting eighth against rookie left-hander DJ Herz. Since being acquired from the Chicago White Sox at the trade deadline at the end of July, Jimenez has gone 12-for-25 (.480) with two doubles and four RBI in nine games for the O's. Mayo, who is Baltimore's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is still searching for his first major-league hit through six games. He has struck out in 10 of his first 17 plate appearances and hasn't taken advantage of Jordan Westburg's (hand) injury while taking a back seat to the veteran Urias.

Baltimore Orioles third baseman Ramon Urias (neck) was held out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Texas Rangers. It sounds like the plan was for Urias to start but he was scratched due to neck soreness. This shouldn't be the type of issue that holds Urias out of the lineup for too long. O's manager Brandon Hyde said the original plan was to give Gunnar Henderson the day off. However, Hyde needed Henderson to play on Sunday with Urias being unavailable. Fantasy managers will have to check back ahead of their next game to see if Urias is able to return.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (illness) has been scratched from Friday's starting lineup versus the Boston Red Sox. Both Urias and catcher Adley Rutschman will hit the bench with an illness on Friday. Possibly, the two of them partied too hard after clinching the AL East division on Thursday. Regardless, it sounds like a minor issue, so both players should return within the next few days. In his absence, Jordan Westburg will cover third base and bat sixth versus right-hander Nick Pivetta on Friday.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (heel) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday, starting at third base and batting eighth in the order against the Houston Astros and right-hander Hunter Brown. Urias sat out on Wednesday after he was removed from Tuesday's game early due to left-heel soreness. It was a minor injury, though, and the 29-year-old is back in action for the O's. He's hitting a very modest .256 (68-for-266) with only four home runs, 35 RBI, three stolen bases and 33 runs scored in his 81 games played this year. However, Urias has picked things up since July 24, going 11-for-39 (.282) with two doubles, a triple, two RBI and three runs scored in 11 starts. He'll be looking to extend his current hitting streak to five games on Thursday.

Baltimore Orioles utility infielder Ramon Urias (heel) left Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the Astros early with left heel discomfort, per The Baltimore Sun's Jacob Calvin Meyer. Urias had gone 1-for-3 with a triple before being removed for Adam Frazier. It is unknown how severe his injury is, but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day until they hear more. Urias has played an important role for the O's defensively, although he has slashed just .256/.323/.387, limiting his fantasy value.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Friday. The 28-year-old has been sidelined most of the month due to a lingering hamstring strain. Before that, Urias was slashing .278/.375/.381 with a home run, 16 RBI in 27 games. It's uncertain if he's in Friday's lineup for their matchup with the Texas Rangers. Regardless, Urias appears ready to return to his utility infielder role. In a corresponding move, infielder Joey Ortiz has been optioned to Triple-A Norfolk.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) aims to return from the injured list on Saturday. He has been sidelined since May 8 due to a left hamstring strain. The 28-year-old is currently in a rehab assignment with High-A Aberdeen. He started as the team's designated hitter and went 0-for-2 with three walks, two strikeouts, and two runs scored. Urias is slashing .278/.375/.381 with a home run, 16 RBI, 12 runs, and two stolen bases over 30 games for the Orioles in 2023. Urias serves as Baltimore's utility infielder and is mainly worth rostering in deep-league or AL-Only formats.

According to Orioles skipper Brandon Hyde, infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) traveled with the team to Toronto. Additionally, Urias hit pregame on Saturday and is set to do some light base running on Sunday. The 28-year-old is on the 10-day injured list because of a left hamstring strain. However, it sounds like he's moving in the right direction, especially since there's word he might return for the upcoming homestand versus the Texas Rangers beginning on May 26. In the meantime, fantasy managers should remain optimistic and keep Uras stashed on the roster.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) was in the batting cage, according to manager Brandon Hyde, and is "much improved." The 28-year-old hit the injured list on May 9 with a hamstring issue and was initially expected to be out for two to three weeks. It sounds like he's progressing nicely so Baltimore should expect him back before the end of the month if he doesn't suffer any setbacks.

The Baltimore Orioles placed infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a left-hamstring strain. In corresponding moves, the Orioles recalled left-hander Drew Rom, infielder/outfielder Ryan O'Hearn and infielder Terrin Vavra from Triple-A Norfolk, optioned left-hander Keegan Akin to Norfolk and designated catcher Luis Torrens for assignment. Urias strained his hamstring in Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays and will now miss some time. The 28-year-old was hitting .278 (27-for-97) with seven doubles, one home run, 16 RBI and two stolen bases in 30 games before his injury. Urias had been sharing time at the hot corner in Baltimore with youngster Gunnar Henderson.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) exited Monday's 3-0 loss to the Rays in the ninth inning with a left hamstring strain. Urias walked off the field after hitting a single. Manager Brandon Hyde said the 28-year-old would be re-evaluated Tuesday to access the severity of the strain. Hopefully, Urias will be able to avoid a trip to the injured list, as he has started picking things up at the plate. He has slashed .278/.375/.381 with one home run, 16 RBI, and two stolen bases in 112 plate appearances this season.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias (concussion), who was hit in the helmet by a 96.2 mph sinker on Saturday, cleared concussion protocol and was available to come off the bench in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Nationals, said manager Brandon Hyde. While he did not play, it is good news that he was ready to get back into the lineup. The 28-year-old has slashed .250/.388/.400 with one home run and four RBI in 49 plate appearances. While he is not an exciting fantasy option, his multi-position eligibility makes him worth a look in deep leagues with middle and corner infield roster spots.
