Orioles' Keegan Akin: Undergoes Tommy John surgery
Akin (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Wednesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Dr. Keith Meister performed the surgery after Akin sought out a second opinion on his left elbow. He was originally diagnosed with inflammation, but the problem was obviously much worse. Akin will miss the remainder of the 2026 season and likely most of the 2027 campaign. The 31-year-old appeared in 24 games (two starts) for the Orioles this season, logging a 5.68 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 17:9 K:BB across 25.1 innings.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Shifts to 60-day IL
The Orioles transferred Akin (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Akin landed on the IL on June 29 due to left elbow inflammation and is scheduled to meet with Dr. Keith Meister on Tuesday to receive a second opinion on his injury. The Orioles fear that Akin may have UCL damage that could require surgery, and their willingness to shift the southpaw to the 60-day IL less than three weeks after he landed on the shelf suggests that the club is bracing for bad news following his consultation with Dr. Meister. The transaction opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Cam Sanders, whom the Orioles acquired in a trade with the Pirates.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Will get second opinion
Akin will receive a second opinion on his injured left elbow from Dr. Keith Meister next week, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Undergoes MRI on elbow
The Orioles are awaiting MRI results on Akin's left elbow, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.
Akin was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday with left elbow discomfort, and he was sent for imaging to make sure he's not dealing with something more serious. The Orioles should have more on the lefty's condition later this week.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Lands on IL with elbow discomfort
The Orioles placed Akin on the 15-day injured list Monday, retroactive to Sunday, due to left elbow discomfort.
The issue may have cropped up during Akin's last outing Saturday against the Nationals, when he tossed two scoreless innings and allowed one hit and one walk while striking out two. After giving up six earned runs against Washington on May 16, Akins has posted a 1.56 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 17.1 innings in his last 15 outings, so his loss is a sizable blow to the Orioles' bullpen. The move means the veteran southpaw will be out at least through the All-Star break. Josh Walker was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Back from IL
The Orioles reinstated Akin (groin) from the injured list Saturday.
Akin has been sidelined since the beginning of the season due to an adductor strain. He's been playing in rehab games at Triple-A Norfolk since April 15, however, and he's allowed one earned run on three hits and a walk while striking out five batters over four innings. The lefty will now return to claim a middle-relief role in Baltimore's bullpen, pushing Cameron Foster back to Triple-A.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Closing in on return
Akin (groin) is expected to return to the Orioles soon, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Akin, who's recovering from a left groin strain, has allowed one run on three hits and one walk in four innings over four rehab appearances for Triple-A Norfolk. Barring any setbacks, the southpaw should be able to rejoin Baltimore's bullpen at some point in late April.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Cleared for rehab games
Akin (groin) will begin a rehab assignment Wednesday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Akin has been shelved all season with a left groin strain but has been cleared to try things out in game action. The lefty suffered the injury late in spring training and doesn't need to rebuild much stamina as a reliever, so Akin could require only a couple rehab appearances if he looks and feels good.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: Shelved with groin strain
The Orioles placed Akin on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a left groin strain.
Akin was diagnosed with the groin strain following an MRI earlier this week, after he had initially experienced the injury while warming up for a Grapefruit League game last Saturday. The Orioles haven't provided a timeline for Akin's return, but he won't be eligible to make his 2026 debut until April 6 after landing on the shelf.

Akin suffered an adductor injury while warming up in the bullpen during Baltimore's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies on Saturday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Orioles' Keegan Akin: MRI on tap
Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said Sunday that Akin (adductor) is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
The MRI should provide more information on the extent of the adductor injury that Akin suffered while warming up in the bullpen Saturday and will help the Orioles determine whether or not the lefty requires a stint on the injured list to begin the season. If Akin ends up being shelved, it could open the door for Grant Wolfram to make the Opening Day roster as another southpaw option out of the bullpen.
