Brian Roberts remains out of the Orioles lineup on paternity leave, which gives Alexi Casilla the start at second base.
Ryan Flaherty isn’t returning to the bench. He’s replacing J.J. Hardy at shortstop.
We’ll find out later whether Hardy is being rested or if he’s hurting. Hardy leads all major league shortstops with 971 1/3 innings played this season.
Henry Urrutia moves up to seventh in the lineup as the designated hitter.

Update: Jason Hammel said the MRI on his right forearm didn’t reveal any structural damage, just some inflammation around the ulnar nerve.
He’ll take two or three days off from throwing and expects to be ready when he’s eligible to come of the disabled list. He will accompany the team on the upcoming West Coast trip.
