Overview
- The Orioles activated Adley Rutschman from the 10-day injured list and designated Sam Huff for assignment.
- Rutschman had been sidelined by inflammation in his left ankle and will return without a rehab assignment.
- With Rutschman back, catching duties return to him and prospect Samuel Basallo, who is expected to shift to designated hitter.
- Under MLB roster rules, the team has five days to trade Huff or place him on outright waivers, and his prior outright gives him the right to elect free agency if he clears.
- Huff, 28, went 2-for-9 in three games for Baltimore and carries a .246/.299/.427 career line with a 36.3% strikeout rate and issues controlling the running game.
