The Baltimore Orioles reinstated outfielder Cedric Mullins from the 10-day injured list Friday.

Mullins, 28, has not played since July 15 due to a right adductor groin strain.

The former All-Star is batting .259 with nine homers, 47 RBIs and 14 steals in 69 games this season.

The Orioles also recalled left-hander Nick Vespi from Norfolk and optioned right-hander Joey Krehbiel and outfielder Ryan McKenna to the Triple-A club.

Vespi, 27, posted a 3.00 ERA with seven strikeouts in five relief appearances earlier this year for the Orioles.

Krehbiel, 30, has tossed 1 2/3 perfect innings in two appearances out of the Baltimore bullpen this season.

McKenna, 26, is batting .248 with two home runs and 14 RBIs in 73 games this season with the Orioles.
