Orioles Place Chris Davis On Injured List

By George Miller | May 26, 2019 at 1:43pm CDT

The Orioles have placed first baseman Chris Davis on the 10-day injured list, according to an official team announcement. Right-handed pitcher Evan Phillips has been recalled from Triple-A to replace Davis on the active roster. Davis has been bothered by inflammation to his left hip.

Davis has not started a game since Thursday and last appeared for the Orioles on Friday, which might have been attributed to his recent struggles at the plate. However, it now appears that the lack of playing time was at least partly due to an injury.

The former slugger, who showed signs of a resurgence after his historic slump, has found that success sandwiched between bouts of poor performance; over his last ten games, Davis has struck out 22 times in 36 plate appearances, a frustrating development for a veteran who looked to have overcome some of the issues that held him hitless for the first 12 games of the season.

Evan Phillips, 24, is back with the big league team after a brief stint in the minor leagues. He has appeared in 11 games for the O’s, pitching 12 2/3 innings and striking out 16 batters against 10 walks.

      He should just be on the always IL for being bad

      All year. They are not trying to be competitive. They want Mountcastke to try and learn enough defense to be adequate so they won’t bring him up.

    Well, Orioles are paying him millions. Sure hope they have insurance…

      “insurers enforce a 60 to 90 day deductible policy” Insurance doesn’t cover 10 day IL stints

        Geena Davis is alive and well. Catching all those games for the Rockford Peaches will probably give her hip problems at some point though.

    Well, it keeps him from playing for a week and a half. That’s a step in the right direction.

    Davis is done. Love the work ethic, seemingly good person, but let someone else play and eat that bad contract and move on.

      I am surprised this hasn’t happened in a major sport yet. Hire some guy to get in a fight or something and intentionally break a bone, or even worse take the dude out. Save yourself $80 million. Would be a great premise for a movie.

    When your $23,000,000 man goes down and that causes your lineup to improve that’s not good.
