Adley Rutschman Placed on 10-Day Injured List With Ankle Inflammation
The Baltimore Orioles placed catcher Adley Rutschman (ankle) on the 10-day injured list on Saturday after he was scratched from the starting lineup due to left-ankle inflammation, according to Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Banner. In corresponding moves, the O's selected the contract of catcher Maverick Handley from the minors and designated Chayce McDermott for assignment. With the 28-year-old out for at least 10 games, Samuel Basallo will serve as Baltimore's primary catcher, with Handley backing him up. Although Rutschman has yet to homer in 2026, he was swinging the bat well in the early going, hitting .294 (10-for-34) with three RBI and three runs scored in his first 10 games. The two-time All-Star backstop should remain stashed in all fantasy baseball leagues while he recovers from what shouldn't be an injury that will keep him out for an extended period of time. Basallo, 21, has been quiet in the early going, hitting .152 (5-for-33) with a homer and an RBI after debuting in the big leagues in 2025.
