Alvarez will leave the team after Sunday's game against the Mariners and will be placed on the bereavement list, MLB.com's Brittany Ghiroli reports.
Alvarez will serve as the Orioles' DH and bat seventh in the order Sunday before taking a flight to the Dominican Republic following a death in his family. The Orioles will be able to add a player to the roster while Alvarez is away, likely until Friday. With Alvarez expected to potentially miss out on a few starts this week, he's not a strong activation in most leagues.
