Mountcastle went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 3-2 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle went yard in the sixth inning for his first homer since May 24. The first baseman has gone 8-for-25 (.320) with four extra-base hits and three RBI over 10 games since he returned from a bout with vertigo. He's slashing .236/.269/.434 with 12 homers, 42 RBI, 38 runs scored and two stolen bases over 70 contests this season. Mountcastle will likely continue to compete with Ryan O'Hearn and Anthony Santander for playing time between first base and designated hitter, though all three can fit in the lineup when Santander is in right field.

Mountcastle is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle will sit for the second time in five games, as he has yet to fully work his way back into an everyday role following his return from the 10-day injured list July 9. The Orioles seem content to take a committee approach to the designated-hitter spot, which will fall to Anthony Santander on Sunday.

Mountcastle is not in the lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the Dodgers, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle has now started just two of six games since returning from the injured list. Both of those starts were at designated hitter, as Ryan O'Hearn has remained the Orioles' regular first baseman even with Mountcastle back in action.

The Orioles reinstated Mountcastle (illness) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Per Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, Mountcastle won't be included in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale in Minnesota, but the 26-year-old at least appears to be fully healthy again after a prolonged bout with vertigo. According to Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun, Mountcastle disclosed that he had been experiencing symptoms of vertigo before landing on the 10-day injured list June 13, including light-headedness that made the baseball appear "pea-sized" when he was at the plate. The condition may explain in part why Mountcastle struggled prior to landing on the IL and early on during his extended minor-league rehab assignment, but he settled back into a groove toward the end of his time in the minors. Over the final eight games of his 12-game assignment at Triple-A Norfolk, Mountcastle hit .300 with a pair of extra-base knocks. Though he's out of the lineup Sunday, Mountcastle should reclaim a near-everyday role coming out of the All-Star break.

Mountcastle (illness) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Norfolk, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle is symptom-free following a bout of vertigo and could be ready to return to the Orioles' active roster by the end of the week. Baltimore might opt to ease him back into action, though, with Ryan O'Hearn showing so well at first base. Mountcastle has slashed just .227/.264/.422 through 60 major-league games this year but he's managed to tally 11 home runs and 39 RBI.

Mountcastle (illness) took some throws at first base pregame Friday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle was placed on the injured list earlier this week due to vertigo. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde noted Friday that while the first baseman is feeling better, he's not fully back just yet. He is eligble to return from the IL on June 20, although it's uncertain at this point whether he'll be ready at that time.

Mountcastle (illness) was placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 10, by the Orioles on Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle will miss at least a week while he recovers from a bout of vertigo. The right-handed hitter has been able to swing in the cage, so this could be a minimum stint on the IL before he returns. Mark Kolozsvary had his contract selected from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding transaction.

Mountcastle (illness) is available off the bench Tuesday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mountcastle is missing a second straight start due to illness but is feeling much better. There would seem to be a good chance that he's back in the lineup Wednesday. As for Tuesday, Ryan O'Hearn is getting the call at first base.
