Orioles Tender a Contract to Ryan Mountcastle

The Baltimore Sun reports that the Baltimore Orioles tendered a contract offer to first baseman Ryan Mountcastle for the 2026 season. Mountcastle was a non-tender candidate after hitting just seven home runs in 2025. The 28-year-old is projected to make more than $8 million in salary arbitration in 2026, but it looks like he's going to stick around in Baltimore for at least one more season. The former 36th overall pick in the 2015 draft hit .250/.286/.367 with a career-worst .653 OPS, 35 RBI, and 34 runs scored in 89 games played in his sixth year in the majors this past season. Since clubbing a career-high 33 long balls and driving in 89 RBI in his first full season in 2021, Mountcastle has regressed at the plate, especially in the power department. 2026 will be a make-or-break year for him, and he could be a trade candidate before the regular season even begins.

Ryan Mountcastle Returning on Thursday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (finger) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the New York Yankees. It was recently revealed that Mountcastle missed the last two games due to a minor finger injury. He appears to be fine now, so he won't require a stint on the injured list. He'll bat leadoff and serve as the designated hitter versus left-hander Max Fried on Thursday. Mountcastle has seen his playing time dip down the stretch of the season. The O's seem committed to Coby Mayo at first base, so Mountcastle could be a trade candidate this winter. At the moment, Mountcastle is nothing more than a deep league option.

Ryan Mountcastle Activated and Starting Against A's

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) was activated from the 60-day injured list on Friday and he is serving as the designated hitter while batting fifth in Friday's series opener against the visiting Athletics at Camden Yards. With Mountcastle back, the 28-year-old right-handed hitter should see starts between DH and first base. He has been away from the big-league team since May 30, though, and there's no guarantee he'll find his groove after struggling to a .246/.280/.348 slash line with two home runs, 15 RBI and 19 runs scored in 187 at-bats before his injury. But Mountcastle should play regularly with the disappointing O's the rest of the way, especially after both outfielders Colton Cowser (concussion) and Tyler O'Neill (wrist) landed on the injured on Friday. Mountcastle has never faced A's Friday starter J.T. Ginn.

Ryan Mountcastle Will Not Return until Friday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) will not be activated until after the team's current series in Philadelphia against the Phillies. He will continue his rehab assignment in Triple-A Norfolk and could return on Friday, when the O's start their next series at home against the Athletics. Mountcastle hit just .246 in his 52 games with two homers and a .274 wOBA this season before landing on the 60-day injured list. He's been sidelined since the end of May, so the team is just giving him time to get fully back up to speed. In six games in Norfolk, Mountcastle is an impressive 9-for-23 (.391) with three doubles, two homers, and a 50% hard-hit rate. Following the Ryan O'Hearn trade, he should have a clear path to playing time once he is activated, and it'll be fascinating to see how well he can finish the season.

Ryan Mountcastle Unlikely to Return Until Next Week

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) is eligible to return from the injured list on Wednesday, but MLB.com's Jake Rill writes that he is unlikely to return to the O's until next week's series against the Philadelphia Phillies, which starts on Monday, Aug. 4. Mountcastle has been out for almost two months with a strained right hamstring, so the Orioles would like to see him play in a few more minor-league rehab games. When the 28-year-old does finally return from the IL, he could be splitting first base duties with Coby Mayo if Ryan O'Hearn is sent packing at this week's trade deadline. If O'Hearn isn't traded, it could be more of a struggle for regular playing time for Mountcastle, who was hitting .246 (46-for-187) with only two home runs, 15 RBI and 19 runs scored before his hammy injury. Since hitting a career-high 33 bombs in 21, Mountcastle's power has declined.

Ryan Mountcastle Beginning Rehab Assignment on Thursday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) is scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, according to O's interim manager Tony Mansolino. Mountcastle has been sidelined since late May due to a right hamstring strain. He's not eligible to return until the end of July, so he figures to be back with the O's in early August. Mountcastle was struggling with the bat before going down with his injury. He's not someone that must be rostered right now as a starting spot might not be guaranteed when he returns.

Ryan Mountcastle to Start Rehab Assignment on July 22

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) is scheduled to begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on July 22, according to MLB.com. Mountcastle was diagnosed with a Grade 2 right-hamstring strain and was moved to the 60-day injured list on June 23. Barring a setback on his rehab assignment, he could be activated on July 30 or shortly thereafter. The 28-year-old right-handed hitter has been out since the end of May but should return to regular duties at first base in Baltimore when he's ready. In the meantime, expect Ryan O'Hearn and Coby Mayo to continue splitting time at the cold corner for the O's coming out of this week's All-Star break. Mountcastle had been a disappointment for fantasy managers before his hamstring injury, slashing .246/.280/.348 with a weak .628 OPS, only two homers, 15 RBI and 19 runs in 187 at-bats.

Ryan Mountcastle Ramping Up for a Return

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) has started ramping up his physical activities as he prepares for a return to the team's lineup. He was spotted doing resistance running as well as swinging a bat during pre-game warmups. While Mountcastle still has a ways to go, he continues to improve daily. Originally given a timeline of 8 to 12 weeks for a return, he is almost five weeks removed from that diagnosis. The 28-year-old will likely need a lengthy rehab assignment before being cleared to rejoin Baltimore's lineup. Mountcastle is worth stashing in deep leagues and in 12-team leagues on teams that are looking for corner infield or first base help.

Orioles Transfer Ryan Mountcastle to 60-Day Injured List

The Baltimore Orioles announced on Monday that they transferred infielder Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) to the 60-day injured list. The team also placed catcher Maverick Handley (head) on the seven-day concussion injured list and selected the contract of catcher Chadwick Tromp from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. The move to put Mountcastle on the 60-day IL was probably inevitable after he was given an eight- to 12-week timetable following a Grade 2 right-hamstring strain on May 30. The 28-year-old will not be ready to rejoin the Orioles lineup until sometime in the second half of the season. Until then, Ryan O'Hearn will continue to serve in the strong side of a platoon at first base in Baltimore with Coby Mayo also filling in. Mountcastle was hitting .246 with only two home runs and 15 RBI in 187 at-bats at the time of his injury.

Ryan Mountcastle Out 8-12 Months With Grade 2 Hamstring Strain

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 right-hamstring strain and will be out for eight to 12 weeks, according to interim manager Tony Mansolino. Depending on how his rehab goes, Mountcastle probably won't make it back now until August. It's good news for infield prospect Coby Mayo, who has been splitting playing time at first base with the left-handed-hitting Ryan O'Hearn since Mountcastle landed on the 10-day injured list last Saturday. The former first-rounder (36th overall) in 2015 isn't a must-hold corner infielder in deep-mixed fantasy leagues now that we know he'll be out for multiple months. Before getting hurt, Mountcastle had a very mediocre .246/.280/.348 slash line with a weak .628 OPS, only two home runs, 15 RBI, 19 runs and a steal in 187 at-bats for the O's.
