Adley Rutschman Placed on 10-Day Injured List
Adley Rutschman (oblique) on the 10-day injured list with an oblique strain. In a corresponding move, the Orioles promoted 27-year-old backstop Maverick Handley from Triple-A Norfolk. Rutschman was held out of action on Friday and was not slated to be in Saturday's starting lineup as well due to this injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, as it is unclear when the catcher sustained this injury. Since June 3, the 27-year-old has begun to find his footing in the batter's box, posting a .309/.381/.509 slash line with two doubles, three home runs, five RBI, and an 8:7 K:BB. However, prior to this surge, Rutschman held a .203 AVG with a .632 OPS. While he remains sidelined, Gary Sanchez should handle the majority of the catching duties.
