Galvis went 1-for-3 with a home run in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Galvis has been struggling badly this season, but he seems to be taking small steps towards the right path in recent games. Aside from launching his first homer of the season Thursday, it's worth noting Galvis has now hit safely in four of Baltimore's last five games -- reaching base at least twice in two of those contests.

Galvis (knee/ankle) will bat ninth and play shortstop Monday against the Mariners, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galvis left late in Sunday's game against the Red Sox due to knee and ankle issues. Neither injury seems to be a particularly significant one, as he won't be forced to miss any starts.

Galvis is dealing with knee and ankle injuries following Sunday's loss to the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galvis went 1-for-1 with a walk to begin Sunday's contest, but he was replaced defensively in the top of the seventh inning. Manager Brandon Hyde said that he'd check in on Galvis on Monday. If the 31-year-old is forced to miss any time, Ramon Urias could take over at shortstop.

Galvis went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Monday's 7-0 loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Galvis got aboard with a single in the third inning and stole second base. He was one of two Orioles baserunners to advance past first base in the game. Galvis has taken on the starting shortstop role in 2021. He's gone 3-for-15 (.200) with two runs scored and an RBI through four games.

Galvis (hip) will bat seventh and play shortstop Saturday against Detroit, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Galvis was scratched from the lineup for Thursday's spring game against the Red Sox due to hip soreness, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Orioles didn't initially provide a reason for Galvis' removal from Thursday's lineup, but manager Brandon Hyde said that it was a precautionary measure due to a sore hip. Galvis participated in workouts ahead of the game, but the team decided that he wasn't able to play against Boston. Hyde didn't sound too concerned about his status going forward, but it's not yet clear whether Galvis will be forced to miss additional time.

Galvis was scratched from the lineup ahead of Thursday's game against Boston for undisclosed reasons, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's not clear whether Galvis is dealing with an injury or the Orioles simply changed their plans for the day. Ramon Urias will handle shortstop in his absence.

Galvis signed a one-year, $1.5 million deal with the Orioles on Tuesday, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's a straightforward one-year deal with no options for the 31-year-old, though he'll receive an additional $250,000 if traded. The Orioles shipped off Jose Iglesias earlier this offseason, so Galvis should take over at shortstop for his new team. He appeared in 47 games for Cincinnati in 2020 and had a .220/.308/.404 slash line with seven homers in 159 plate appearances.

Galvis hit .220/.308/.404 in 159 plate appearances for the Reds this season and declined defensively, frequently getting replaced in the field late in games, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports. He'll be a free agent this offseason.
EDGE Analysis
The Reds had the lowest WAR (-0.8) of all shortstops and baseball and are likely to look elsewhere next season, after Galvis underperformed as a stopgap option. Jose Garcia and Kyle Farmer are remaining on the Reds' big league roster, and they don't have much help on the way in their farm system.

Galvis is not in Wednesday's Game 1 lineup against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Kyle Farmer, who is a career .291/.336/.425 hitter against lefties, will start at shortstop and bat eighth with Max Fried on the hill for Atlanta. Galvis could be used as a defensive replacement.
