Mayo isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
After going 0-for-5 with a walk in Baltimore's last series against Detroit, Mayo will take a seat to begin the Orioles' three-game set with the Halos. His absence will put Ryan O'Hearn at first base while Adley Rutschman works as the DH and Maverick Handley starts behind the plate.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Heading to bench Wednesday
Rotowire
Mayo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Mayo has been seeing semi-regular playing time since being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on May 31, but he's gone just 4-for-22 with one extra-base hit (a double), a stolen base and a 2:5 BB:K over a stretch of seven games. With the Orioles getting two key position players in Jordan Westburg and Cedric Mullins back from the injured list earlier this week, Mayo could end up being squeezed out of the lineup on a more frequent basis if he's unable to pick up the pace at the plate.

The Orioles recalled Mayo from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday. He will start at designated hitter and bat sixth Saturday against the White Sox.
With Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) moving to the injured list, Mayo will rejoin the active roster to give Baltimore some additional infield depth. The 23-year-old went just 1-for-12 during his previous stint in the big leagues this season and has slashed .180/.265/.328 across 61 plate appearances since being sent back down to Triple-A.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Could be recalled from minors
Rotowire
Mayo is on his way to Baltimore and could be recalled by the Orioles, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Mayo was scratched from Triple-A Norfolk's lineup Friday so that he could head to Baltimore, but it remains uncertain whether the Orioles will officially recall him from the minor leagues. Ryan Mountcastle is dealing with hamstring discomfort, which could prompt the major-league club to enlist Mayo's services. Mayo went just 1-for-12 during a brief stint in the majors earlier this season and is only 5-for-53 for his career with the O's, but he remains one of the top prospects in Baltimore's farm system.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Sent back to minors
Rotowire
The Orioles optioned Mayo to Triple-A Norfolk on Friday.
Mayo had some defensive lapses and went just 1-for-12 at the plate during his brief stint with the big club. The 23-year-old has nothing left to prove in the minors, but he will nonetheless head back to Norfolk to clear space on the roster for the return of Tyler O'Neill (neck).

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Sitting out Wednesday
Rotowire
Mayo is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Minnesota.
Mayo started both of the previous two games, but he's now been in the Orioles' lineup in just half of the team's contests since being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday. He looks like he'll have to split time at the hot corner with Emmanuel Rivera, who draws the nod Wednesday.

The Orioles recalled Mayo from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Mayo will likely receive regular reps at the hot corner while Jordan Westburg and Ramon Urias are both on the injured list due to hamstring injuries. Mayo, 23, struggled upon reaching the majors last season, going just 4-for-41 with 22 strikeouts, but he's since bounced back in Triple-A by posting a .869 OPS through 127 plate appearances this year.

Orioles' Coby Mayo: Headed to big leagues
Rotowire
The Orioles plan to recall Mayo from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
One of the top prospects in the Orioles' farm system, Mayo is now due for his third career stint with the big-league club after slashing .252/.346/.523 across 127 plate appearances in Triple-A this season. He'll provide the O's with insurance at third base with Jordan Westburg (hamstring) and Ramon Urias (hamstring) both nursing injuries.
The Orioles optioned Mayo to Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Mayo probably wasn't going to make the Opening Day roster no matter how well he played this spring, but he didn't help himself by slashing .190/.239/.262 with a 13:2 K:BB in 46 plate appearances. The top prospect will receive everyday reps back at Norfolk while waiting for an opportunity at the big-league level.
