Orioles' Dylan Beavers: First day off Monday
Rotowire
Beavers is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the Red Sox.
Beavers started in each of the first eight games for the Orioles upon getting called up from Triple-A Norfolk on Aug. 16, but he will begin Monday's series opener on the bench. The Orioles faced all righties during those eight games and are going up against a left-handed opener in Brennan Bernardino on Monday, but the left-handed-hitting Beavers won't necessarily be deployed exclusively as a strong-side platoon player over the final five weeks of the season. Beavers will give up his spot in left field to Dylan Carlson on Monday.

Orioles' Dylan Beavers: Hits first big-league homer
Rotowire
Beavers went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total RBI in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Astros.
Beavers took Jason Alexander deep in the second inning and added a second RBI with a fielder's choice in the sixth. The homer was the first of Beavers' big-league career. He's off to a great start in the majors, batting .294 (5-for-17) with a 5:5 BB:K over his first five games. He'll likely continue to hold down a starting role in the corner outfield for the remainder of the campaign as long as his hitting stays strong.

Orioles' Dylan Beavers: Climbs to Double-A
Rotowire
The Orioles promoted Beavers from High-A Aberdeen to Double-A Bowie on Wednesday.
Beavers, the 33rd overall pick in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft, earned the move to the Eastern League after posting an .832 OPS while walking in 13.9 percent of his plate appearances and stealing 22 bases in 28 attempts. The 21-year-old hit only nine home runs in his 85 games at Aberdeen, but at 6-foot-4, he possesses the sort of frame to add power as he matures.
