Johnson was just optioned out on Sunday, but he’ll return to the big league roster with Adley Rutschman (oblique) landing on the injured list. The 30-year-old outfielder has gone just 2-for-14 with one stolen base in his limited action with the O’s this season.

It looks like Johnson, who does have an option remaining, will get a spot on the Orioles’ roster, probably in place of Jordyn Adams. Johnson, a 30-year-old former Guardians prospect, spent last year with the Orioles organization, hitting .259/.320/.448 with 21 homers and 17 steals in Triple-A and going 0-for-1 in one major league game. He’d hit .278/.322/.519 for the Giants’ Triple-A club this year. His time in the majors could be short-lived with Dylan Beavers perhaps in line for a callup this weekend and Colton Cowser not expected to be down for long.
