Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Mychal Givens was placed on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation. The inflammation is located on the outside/back side of the elbow and triceps area, which is more favorable than inside elbow damage that could indicate ligament issues. Manager Craig Albernaz indicated this may not be a long-term injury. Givens received a cortisone shot to address the inflammation. He exited his previous start early after only 43 pitches due to the discomfort.
Strengths
- + Inflammation location is on outside of elbow, not inside (better prognosis)
- + Cortisone shot administered to aid healing
- + Manager indicated this does not appear to be long-term injury
- + Inflammation is in triceps area rather than ligament-prone region
Weaknesses
- - Currently on 15-day injured list
- - Elbow inflammation forced early exit from recent start
- - Orioles rotation in state of flux with multiple starters on IL
- - Recent performance showed 5.12 ERA in limited innings
Injury Status: IL-15
