Luis Sardinas Recalled from Triple-A, Starting on Tuesday
7 years agoWith Jonathan Schoop remaining sidelined with an oblique injury, the Baltimore Orioles have turned to Luis Sardinas at second base. Sardinas was called up from Triple-A on Tuesday and is starting and batting eighth against the Tigers. Sardinas will be making his Orioles 2018 debut after playing 29 games with the Padres in 2017. While Sardinas was once a highly-touted prospect, he has struggled during his time in the big leagues, hitting just .229 with four home runs, 31 RBI and 10 stolen bases over 174 games. Perhaps if he impresses he'll receive more playing time in Schoop's absence, but for now it's best if he is left on the waiver wire.
