Springer (head) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

After Springer was struck on the left ear flap of his helmet by a sinker in Monday's 11-4 loss to Baltimore, he ended up sitting out both ends of a doubleheader Tuesday. He'll remain out of the lineup for a third straight game Wednesday, but Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca relays that Springer's condition is improving, and the 35-year-old was spotted doing some running on the field prior to the contest. Springer isn't likely to be available off the bench Wednesday, but with a team off day on tap Thursday, he could be ready to rejoin the starting nine for Friday's series opener versus the Royals.
