Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser is going on the injured list with a fractured left thumb and will miss Monday’s home opener, the Orioles announced.

Dylan Carlson was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk.

Cowser hurt his thumb in Sunday’s series finale in Toronto when his thumb was bent back sliding into first base, forcing the Orioles to pinch-hit for him in the ninth inning with back-up catcher Gary Sánchez. Cowser was 2-for-16 with a home run in the first four games of the season.

He fractured his left hand in Game 2 of the wild-card series last year.

Carlson, signed in the offseason to a one-year, $975,000 deal, hit .321 with a 1.071 OPS during spring training. He was optioned on the last day of camp and had three hits in the Tides’ first two games.

Carlson primarily spent the previous four seasons with the Cardinals, hitting .237. He’s capable of playing all three outfield positions.
