Orioles' Coby Mayo: Keeps slugging Tuesday
Rotowire
Mayo went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.
The 24-year-old came up clutch, taking Jose Ferrer deep in the ninth inning to help the Orioles erase a 4-2 deficit, only for the M's to re-take the lead for good in the top of the 10th. Mayo hasn't had multiple hits in a game since May 24, but four of his nine homers on the season have come in his last 10 games, a stretch in which he's slashing a lopsided .189/.231/.541 with a 38.5 percent strikeout rate. Mayo's power is legit, but until he learns to make more consistent contact he'll be tough to rely on in most fantasy formats.

Mayo recently shook off a back injury and started the previous four games, going 4-for-12 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and four additional runs. Though he still looks to be the Orioles' preferred option at third base, Mayo will give way to Blaze Alexander at the hot corner in the series finale.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Serving as DH on Wednesday
Rotowire
Mayo (back) is serving as the Orioles' designated hitter and batting fifth against the Rays on Wednesday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Mayo was out of the Orioles' lineup in each of the team's last four games due to back soreness. He'll be eased back into action as the DH in Wednesday's game, but he could return to fielding duties for Baltimore's series opener against Toronto on Thursday. Mayo has gone 11-for-52 (.212) with two home runs, six RBI and a 4:19 BB:K since May 1.

Rotowire

Rotowire
Mayo (back) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Late scratch with back issue
Rotowire
The Orioles scratched Mayo from the starting lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Tigers due to lower-back discomfort, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
The back issue presumably cropped up while Mayo was working out prior to the game. The Orioles will go with Weston Wilson as their starting third baseman and No. 6 batter in his place. It's unclear whether Mayo will be available off the bench or if he has a chance of returning to the lineup for the nightcap.

Rotowire

After being scratched from the starting nine ahead of Game 1 due to a low back discomfort, Mayo went unused off the bench in the Orioles' 5-3 win. The Orioles are seemingly viewing Mayo as day-to-day but will likely look to stay away from using him in the nightcap. Blaze Alexander will get the starting nod at third base in place of Mayo for Game 2.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Clubs decisive homer
Rotowire
Mayo went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and a walk in a 3-2 victory versus the Yankees on Monday.
Mayo wasn't originally slated to be in the Baltimore's lineup, but he was a late addition after Samuel Basallo was scratched due to a knee injury. The swap ended up working out for the Orioles, as Mayo produced the team's only runs with a three-run blast to left field in the seventh inning to erase a 2-0 deficit. Mayo had recorded just one RBI over his previous 13 games coming into Monday, going 4-for-35 at the plate over that stretch. He'll look to use Monday's big hit as a catalyst for improved production.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Sitting in second straight
Rotowire
Mayo is out of the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Yankees.
After making five straight starts, Mayo is now absent from the lineup for the second day in a row. Mayo homered in three consecutive games in late April, but since then he's just 4-for-35 with a 0:14 BB:K over 13 tilts. Jackson Holliday (hand) has begun to get some work at third base on his rehab assignment, which could indicate Mayo is facing a demotion even after Jordan Westburg's (elbow) recent setback. Weston Wilson is again at third base for the Orioles on Monday.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Sitting after five straight starts
Rotowire
Mayo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
He'll take a seat for the series finale while the Orioles go with Weston Wilson at third base. Mayo had started the last five games, going 2-for-16 with an 0:7 BB:K during that stretch to bring his slash line down to .158/.218/.277 for the season.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Exiting starting nine Monday
Rotowire
Mayo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Jeremiah Jackson will step in at third base in place of Mayo, who will hit the bench after going 1-for-16 with a 0:7 BB:K over his last six games. The young infielder has already endured multiple lulls in production less than two months into the season and is slashing just .165/.234/.306 while striking out at a 29.8 percent clip over 94 plate appearances. Once the Orioles get the likes of Jackson Holliday (hand) and Jordan Westburg (elbow) back from the injured list, Mayo will be in danger of moving into more of a part-time role, if Baltimore doesn't option him to Triple-A Norfolk.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Breaks through with first homer
Rotowire
Mayo went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Royals.
Mayo delivered a much-needed swing, launching a three-run homer off Kris Bubic in the second inning for his first long ball of the season. The long ball accounted for most of Baltimore's offense and marked a potential turning point after the young first baseman's slow start. Entering Tuesday, Mayo was slashing just .148/.258/.185 with only two extra-base hits across 62 plate appearances. He'll need to rattle off more performances like this one to solidify his role moving forward.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Idle after five straight starts
Rotowire
Mayo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Mayo started each of the Orioles' previous five games but was unable to wake up from his season-long slumber at the plate, going just 2-for-16 with a double and a 2:5 BB:K. Now holding down a .148/.258/.185 slash line for the season, Mayo looks like he'll be part of a timeshare at third base with Blaze Alexander, who receives the starting nod Monday. The 24-year-old could be at risk of a demotion to Triple-A Norfolk once Jackson Holliday (wrist) is back from the injured list, as Holliday's return would likely result in the hot-hitting Jeremiah Jackson moving off second base and cutting further into Mayo's playing time at the hot corner.
