Sands will serve as the designated hitter and bat seventh Saturday against the Orioles.

Analysis:

With Avisail Garcia out Saturday with a hamstring injury, Sands will step in for his sixth start of the season. Sands hasn't done a whole lot in his limited opportunities so far, but he does have a home run, and more at-bats should be available for as long as Garcia remains sidelined.
