Gunnar Henderson is playing for Triple-A Norfolk again tonight in Charlotte. It could be the last game on his injury rehab assignment.<\/p>\n

The Orioles need a little more time to decide.<\/p>\n

Henderson is 5-for-16 with two home runs in four games with the Tides. He\u2019ll stay on the field for seven-to-nine innings tonight.<\/p>\n

The complication in reinstating Henderson is the 1:05 p.m. start time for Thursday\u2019s game against the Red Sox. The travel is a consideration.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, Henderson would make the trip to Kansas City for the weekend series against the Royals.<\/p>\n

\u201cI talked to him yesterday, he\u2019s feeling really good,\u201d said manager Brandon Hyde.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunate we have a day game tomorrow, but we\u2019re gonna have to see where he is after the game tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Henderson strained his right intercostal while catching Bo Bichette\u2019s line drive on Feb. 27 in Sarasota. He couldn\u2019t get ready in time for Opening Day but received plenty of at-bats on the back fields and more on his rehab assignment.<\/p>\n

A team that lost outfielder Colton Cowser to a fractured thumb could use a healthy Henderson in the lineup.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was such an unfortunate, weird play that happened in spring training, kind of crunched his side a little bit and just had to give it some time to heal,\u201d Hyde said. \u201cLet\u2019s hope it goes well tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Henderson rejoins the Orioles, he\u2019s going to get back into his usual role: everyday shortstop and leadoff hitter.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s gonna be tomorrow or it\u2019s gonna be in Kansas City,\u201d Hyde said, \u201cbut yeah, he\u2019s gonna be up there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grayson Rodriguez threw his second light bullpen session earlier today, a follow-up to his first one in Toronto. He also has thrown two \u201cshort box\u201d sessions with the catcher set up closer to the mound.<\/p>\n

Hyde said Jordan Westburg, who\u2019s leading off again tonight, is feeling \u201cway better.\u201d Trevor Rogers and Chayce McDermott are throwing side sessions.<\/p>\n

Tomoyuki Sugano is fine to make his next start this weekend after leaving his debut with cramping in both hands.<\/p>\n

Sugano said via his interpreter that it\u2019s happened in previous years in Japan. Asked if there are preventative measures, Hyde said, \u201cI think it\u2019s a hydration issue, so hydrate, bananas.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a hand cramp, and so when I went out there, he really couldn\u2019t move his hand very well. Now we know, and hopefully we can keep him hydrated,\u201d Hyde said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was in a climate-controlled environment and it doesn\u2019t get that way here, so we\u2019ve got to make sure he\u2019s hydrated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jackson Holliday is sitting tonight against left-hander Garrett Crochet, one of the best pitchers in baseball. It won\u2019t always be this way for Holliday, but Hyde went with Jorge Mateo at shortstop and Jordan Westburg at second base.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a tough matchup for any lefty against Crochet, so I wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s every time, but I think the tough lefty matchup, we get a couple other guys in there,\u201d Hyde said. \u201cSee how the year plays out. It\u2019s still really early. Loved the swing he took on (Sean) Newcomb a couple days ago. That\u2019s the best left-on-left swing I\u2019ve seen him take in a year-plus. He really stayed on the baseball and drove that line drive over the shortstop\u2019s head.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the Red Sox<\/strong><\/p>\n
