Trumbo (knee) is back in the lineup Monday against the Mariners, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trumbo will end up missing just one game due to knee stiffness, though he also dealt with the issue in late May, suggesting that it could show up from time to time throughout the season. Trumbo will bat cleanup and be the Orioles' designated hitter.

Trumbo (knee) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Braves, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trumbo's knee has stiffened up. The right knee was a problem late last month and an MRI showed arthritis, but he avoided the disabled list then and the Orioles are optimistic this latest bout of stiffness won't require a DL trip either. Colby Rasmus will shift over to right field in Trumbo's absence as Trey Mancini (neck) returns to left field.

Trumbo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Washington.
EDGE Analysis
This was a pretty standard outing for Trumbo, displaying both his big-time power and his susceptibility to strike out. On the year, the 32-year-old slugger is slashing .262/.317/.450 with 16 RBI and 38 strikeouts.

Trumbo went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, two RBI and three runs scored Sunday against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Trumbo tacked on a run in the third inning with an RBI double to score Manny Machado, and he added another on a solo blast in the seventh. He went 4-for-11 with three extra-base hits and two RBI during Baltimore's three-game weekend series with Miami. The 32-year-old figures to see plenty of playing time moving forward as a part of a team who earned just their 20th win of the season Sunday.

Trumbo went 2-for-4 with a home run in Thursday 5-4 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
It was the right-handed slugger's third long ball in 106 at-bats this season, and his first since May 21. Trumbo currently holds a .292 average but that will likely regress back towards his career average of .250 as he continues to get more at-bats under his belt.

Trumbo (knee) is hitting seventh and serving as the designated hitter Monday against the Nationals, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trumbo has sat out the last five games due to a bout of arthritis in his knee, but he's feeling well enough to return to the lineup after receiving an injection in his knee prior to the weekend. The 32-year-old is hitting .309/.317/.469 with two homers through 20 games this season. He'll look to keep pick up where he left off as he faces lefty Gio Gonzalez in his first game back.

Trumbo (knee) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rays, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trumbo is on the bench for the fifth straight contest due to a bout of arthritis in his right knee, but the Orioles have thus far resisted placing him on the 10-day disabled list. It's unclear at this point if Trumbo has demonstrated any tangible improvement in his recovery, putting his status on shaky ground entering the upcoming week. Pedro Alvarez will serve as the Orioles' designated hitter Sunday and should handle most of the DH duties for the duration of Trumbo's absence.

Trumbo (knee) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, though he's not expected to require a stay on the disabled list, Eduardo A. Encina of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was originally thought that Trumbo would be headed back to the disabled list following Friday's game, but his knee responded well to an injection Friday and the Orioles now believe he'll be back within the next few days, deeming a trip to the shelf unnecessary. Chris Davis will serve as the DH in his stead Saturday, with Trey Mancini starting at first base and Craig Gentry picking up a start in the outfield. Trumbo should be considered day-to-day.

The Orioles will wait and see how Trumbo (knee) feels Saturday before making any DL decisions, Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ghiroli had previously reported that the team was likely to move Trumbo to the DL following Friday's game, but the Orioles will hold off on making any roster moves for the time being. A recent MRI showed arthritis in the knee, which Trumbo admitted has been bothering him for a while now. He was slated to have the knee drained.
