Baltimore Orioles left-hander Keegan Akin underwent Tommy John surgery on July 15 after being diagnosed with a torn UCL in his pitching elbow. The procedure  sidelined Akin for the remainder of the 2026 season and likely most, if not all, of the 2027 campaign. 

Ryan Mountcastle suffered a broken bone in his left foot (a fractured fourth metatarsal) after leaving yesterday’s game following an awkward run from first base to second on a double.

Jordan Westburg will miss the entire 2026 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery on his right elbow this week, ending hopes of a return later this year. The Orioles expect the 27-year-old infielder to begin a lengthy rehab process with a potential return in early 2027. 

The Baltimore Orioles and Under Armour agreed to a new multi-year partnership that brings together two Baltimore-based brands, with added fan experiences and community-focused initiatives starting in the 2026 season.
