Wieters (wrist) is not in the lineup Friday, Roch Kubatko of MASN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wieters continues to deal with a nagging wrist injury, and Caleb Joseph will get another start behind the plate in his place. A switch hitter, Wieters admitted the wrist is more sore when he bats from the right side of the plate, so with the Orioles set to face a pair of right-handers Saturday and Sunday, Wieters said he'll be in the lineup.

Wieters (wrist) will not play against the Yankees on Monday, Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
While the lineups haven't been officially announced for Monday's game, Wieters attempted to warm-up prior to the game, but was unable to take many at-bats in the batting cage, prompting the Orioles to go with another option at catcher. With the left wrist injury ailing Wieters once again, Steve Clevenger, who started the previous two games behind the plate, or Caleb Joseph could fill in for the injured 29-year-old backstop.

Wieters is out of the lineup Saturday with a left wrist injury, the Baltimore Sun's Eduardo Encina reports.
EDGE Analysis
The hope is that Wieters will return to the lineup Sunday, as X-rays on the wrist were negative. He hurt his wrist while diving up the first base line on a defensive play Friday, and while he remained in the game, the wrist tightened up on him overnight. Caleb Joseph will get the start at catcher an hit seventh Saturday.

Wieters is out of the lineup Saturday, MASN's Roch Kubatko reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Wieters carries plenty of name value, his .258 average and one extra-base hit in his last eight games is more representative of how valuable he has been this season. Caleb Joseph gets the start at catcher and will hit seventh Saturday.
