The Baltimore Orioles placed first baseman Ryan Mountcastle on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Saturday, amid his bout with vertigo.
In other moves on Tuesday, the Orioles called up catcher Mark Kolozsvary from Triple-A Norfolk and designated right-hander Noah Denoyer for assignment.
Mountcastle, 26, last played on Thursday, with the team citing illness as he missed the next three games. He has struggled this season, batting a career-low .227 with 11 home runs and 39 RBIs. He has struck out 64 times in 60 games.
Kolozsvary, 27, was a seventh-round pick by Cincinnati in the 2017 draft and appeared in 10 games for the Reds last season. He hit .200 with one homer and three RBIs.
In 25 games between Norfolk and Double-A Bowie this season, Kolozsvary is batting .172 with three homers and nine RBIs.
Denoyer, 25, was 1-0 with a 5.04 ERA across 30 1/3 innings at Norfolk. His control has been a concern with 22 walks to go with 31 hits allowed over 14 appearances (four starts). In 2022, he issued just 17 walks in 71 2/3 innings spread across three minor league teams.
