Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Homers, triples in victory
Rotowire
Henderson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a triple, a walk and an additional RBI in Friday's 4-1 win over the Angels.
Henderson racked up a season-high seven total bases, submitting his second triple and fourth homer of the campaign. The All-Star shortstop also extended his on-base streak to 15 games, during which he's batting .305 (18-for-59) with two round trippers, three doubles, four RBI and six runs scored. Henderson entered the game with a top-shelf 53.0 percent hard-hit rate, so perhaps Friday was a sign that some positive regression in the power department is on the horizon.

Rotowire
Henderson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 15-3 loss to the Orioles.
The Orioles didn't have as much firepower as the Yankees on Tuesday, but Henderson managed to supply one run for Baltimore on a solo homer in the seventh inning. It was his third home run of the season, and the 23-year-old shortstop is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak, going 6-for-19 (.316) over that span.
Henderson went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, two walks, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-5 win over the Reds.

He also drew two walks and, for the first time in 13 games this season, avoided striking out. The 23-year-old appears to be finding his rhythm and is now slashing .245/.286/.472 with two home runs, three RBI, nine runs scored and two steals across 56 plate appearances.

Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Smacks first homer of 2025
Rotowire
Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Guardians.
Henderson got the Orioles on the board with a solo home run off Tanner Bibee in the first inning. Thursday marked Henderson's first homer of 2025 and could be a sign that the 23-year-old shortstop is fully past the right intercostal strain that forced him to begin the season on the 10-day injured list. After going 4-for-29 in his first seven games of the year, he has three multi-hit performances with three extra-base hits in his past four contests.
Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Swipes two bags in victory
Rotowire
Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs and two stolen bases in Monday's 5-1 win against the Diamondbacks.
Henderson had gone just 1-for-13 with seven strikeouts over three games after being activated off the injured list April 4, but he broke out of that slump with his two-hit performance Monday. The talented young shortstop padded his stat line with a pair of thefts, while the double was his first extra-base hit of the campaign. Henderson belted 37 homers and stole 21 bases during the regular season last year, so it's reasonable to expect his initial struggles to be temporary.
Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Activated ahead of season debut
Rotowire
The Orioles activated Henderson (intercostal) from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Henderson got a late start to the season after suffering a right intercostal strain in late February, but he's ready to go after playing five rehab games with Triple-A Norfolk and slugging a pair of home runs. The 23-year-old superstar finished fourth in the American League MVP voting in 2024 after collecting an .893 OPS with 37 home runs and 21 stolen bases.

Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Not activated Thursday
Rotowire
Henderson (intercostal) isn't included in the Baltimore lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox and isn't expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list until Friday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
The Orioles' decision not to reinstate Henderson from the IL on his first day of eligibility isn't indicative of a setback. Instead, the 1:05 p.m. ET start time for Thursday's contest was likely a major factor, with manager Brandon Hyde telling Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com that Henderson will get a planned rest day after playing five innings in the field Wednesday night in his final rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk. Hyde said that Henderson will rejoin the Orioles in Kansas City ahead of the series opener with the Royals on Friday, and the 23-year-old will likely start at shortstop and bat leadoff in what will be his 2025 MLB debut.
