The Orioles activated right-hander Pedro Strop off the disabled list before Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays, but how Strop will be used in the club's constantly morphing bullpen remains to be seen. Strop allowed multiple runs in his last two outings and owned a 6.11 ERA before going on the DL with a strained lower back. Control has been a struggle for him throughout the season - he has 14 walks and 17 strikeouts over 17 2/3 innings. In Strop's absence, right-hander Tommy Hunter has received an expanded late-inning role.

Heading out of Camden Yards shortly after the Orioles' 5-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, second baseman Brian Roberts said he has been given no official word that he would be placed on the 15-day disabled list today with a strained abdominal. "They haven't told me anything, I don't know what we are doing yet," said Roberts, who was injured stealing second base in the first inning of Friday's home opener and hasn't played since. Yet when he was informed that the Orioles had summoned second baseman Justin Turner from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Roberts said, "Well, I guess I am going on the DL then."

Orioles designated hitter Vladimir Guerrero missed his third consecutive game and will be placed on the 15-day disabled list, manager Buck Showalter said after Saturday's game. Guerrero was hit by a pitch in last Sunday's game against the Red Sox, cracking a small bone in his right hand. Showalter said the 15-day count would be backdated to July 6, theoretically marking his possible return date at July 21. The team called up Triple-A Norfolk outfielder Matt Angle to take Guerrero's roster spot.

Left-hander Dontrelle Willis , who left Triple-A Norfolk's game Wednesday after nine pitches, has been placed on the seven-day disabled list with a left forearm strain. Willis, whom the Orioles signed to a minor league deal late in spring, told the Virginian-Pilot that he "tweaked" his forearm yesterday and had been experiencing pain since spring training. “I've worked hard. Maybe it's overuse," Willis, who is being converted into a reliever, told the newspaper.

Orioles rookie right-handed reliever Stu Pomeranz is likely headed to the disabled list after injuring himself while preparing to enter Sunday's game in the top of the seventh inning. He had thrown seven or eight fastballs in the bullpen, before feeling a searing pain in his left side while throwing his first breaking ball. "Something popped up in my ribs," said Pomeranz, who is staying behind in Baltimore to have an MRI at 10 a.m. Monday. The Orioles are initially calling the injury a strained left oblique, and a 15-day disabled list stint is probable, Buck Showalter said.

The Orioles are placing second baseman Brian Roberts on the 15-day disabled list with a right groin strain, manager Buck Showalter said before Tuesday's game against the Mariners. Roberts was out of the lineup Monday with groin soreness and the Orioles were awaiting results of an MRI up until 90 minutes before game time Tuesday. Since early Tuesday afternoon, Showalter had two lineups written out. Roberts, who missed nearly 13 months recovering from multiple concussions, played just 17 games before landing on the DL again.
