Mullins is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins has faced southpaws this season, but he'll retreat to the dugout for the start of Friday's game with the Tigers sending left-hander Tyler Holton to the mound. Mullins recorded his 30th steal of the season Thursday against San Francisco, and since the All-Star break, he has a slash line of .253/.374/.452 with 14 stolen bases, eight home runs and 21 RBI across 176 plate appearances. Colton Cowser will start in center field and bat sixth.

Mullins went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins is just 3-for-19 over his last five games, but he's picked up three steals in that span. The outfielder's theft Thursday was his 30th of the year, making this the third time in four seasons he's reached that mark. While he's occasionally sat out against southpaws throughout the year, Mullins has picked up steadier playing time while the Orioles are dealing with a number of injuries. He's now at a .228/.300/.400 slash line with 17 home runs, 52 RBI and 62 runs scored through 140 contests.

Mullins went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 10-0 loss to the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins was hitless for the fifth time in the last seven games, but he still managed to post his third steal in that span. The outfielder is up to 29 steals on 35 attempts this year. If he can swipe one more bag, he'll have his third 30-steal campaign in four years. He's added a .231/.305/.408 slash line with 17 home runs, 51 RBI, 62 runs scored and 15 doubles over 138 contests, and his playing time has been more consistent for much of the second half.

Mullins went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins drove in the Orioles first run with an RBI single in the third and reached base two more times in Saturday's win. Mullins stole his 28th bag, which ties him for 10th most in the American League this season. The 29-year-old has been riding a hot streak since the end of August. Mullins has started 13 straight games and is hitting .349 with four homers and 10 RBI during that stretch.

Mullins went 2-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI, a stolen base and a walk in Tuesday's 5-3 win against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The Orioles center fielder opened the game's scoring when he cracked a 334-foot solo shot to right around Pesky's Pole in the first inning. Mullins then returned to slug another homer, this one going 407 feet and being of the two-run variety, off starting pitcher Kutter Crawford in his next at-bat. Mullins has caught fire in September, as he's hitting .400 (12-for-30) with four homers, two steals, seven runs scored and nine RBI across nine games so far this month.

Mullins will start in center field and bat second in Monday's game in Boston, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins hadn't previously batted higher than fifth all season and that came back in April. The center fielder is 10-for-24 with a couple home runs so far in September and the Orioles want to see if he can spark them from higher in the batting order with his hot bat. Typical No. 2 hitter Adley Rutschman will hit fifth Monday.

Mullins went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-1 loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins remains dialed in at the plate -- he's 10-for-24 (.417) over his last eight games, adding two homers, six RBI and two stolen bases in that span. His long ball Saturday was the Orioles' lone extra-base hit in the contest. The outfielder is up to a .232/.301/.405 slash line with 15 homers, 47 RBI, 59 runs scored and 26 steals through 130 contests. His OPS is over .700 for the first time since April 30.

Mullins went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-1 loss to the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins has gone 9-for-21 (.429) with two steals, a home run and five RBI during his six-game hitting streak. The outfielder has stolen seven bases over his last 18 games, giving him 26 thefts on the year and putting him within striking distance of his third 30-steal campaign in four years. He's added a .231/.298/.398 slash line with 14 home runs, 46 RBI and 58 runs scored through 128 contests, but he's trending in the right direction after serving as a platoon player for much of the year.

Mullins went 3-for-6 with a two-run home run, an RBI double and two additional runs scored during Monday's 13-3 win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins belted his 14th home run of the season Monday, tagging Touki Toussaint for a two-run shot in the eighth inning. The performance marked Mullins' first three-hit game since June 27 (52 games). He's slashing .227/.292/.397 in 413 plate appearances in 2024.

Mullins went 1-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Mullins hit just .226 over his last 14 games in August, but he was able to swipe six bases in that span, in part thanks to an 8:5 BB:K. The outfielder reached the 25-steal mark for the third time in the last four years, and he could get to 30 again if he remains productive on the basepaths in September. Overall, Mullins is slashing .222/.290/.386 with 13 home runs, 41 RBI, 54 runs scored, 14 doubles and three triples over 399 plate appearances.
