Colton Cowser Injury: Should return during road trip

Interim manager Tony Mansolino said Friday that Cowser (thumb) is expected to be reinstated from the 60-day injured list during Baltimore's upcoming road trip, which runs June 3-8, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The 25-year-old had his rehab assignment transferred to Triple-A Norfolk this week after three games with High-A Aberdeen, and he should be ready to rejoin the Orioles after a few more minor-league contests. Cowser played just four games this season before fracturing his thumb, and his return will be timely with Cedric Mullins (hamstring), Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) and Ramon Laureano (ankle) also on the shelf.
