Chris Davis Placed on 10-Day DL by Orioles with Oblique Injury

As the Baltimore Orioles look to climb their way back into the American League East race, an injury to Chris Davis' oblique could hurt their chances.

The Orioles announced on Wednesday that Davis has been placed on the 10-day disabled list retroactive to June 13 with a strained right oblique.

He was injured while swinging the bat during Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

Davis has had an erratic career, though his highs have been fantastic. The 30-year-old played in 160 games in 2013 and 2015, the two best seasons of his career, when he hit a combined 100 home runs and drove in 255 runs.
