Mountcastle had missed two games so the move can be backdated, but it's unclear how much time he'll need to miss. Tyler Nevin will likely get more playing time in Mountcastle's absence. The Orioles should provide a timetable for his return in the coming days, but unless it's a long-term injury, managers can hold Mountcastle until he comes back.
