The Boston Red Sox announced the acquisition of catcher Rutschman from the Baltimore Orioles on Monday, a move aimed at strengthening their roster as they surge in the playoff race. Rutschman has been on the injured list since July 20 due to left wrist inflammation.
He has resumed hitting and is slated for a rehab assignment this week. If all progresses well, Rutschman could rejoin the Red Sox during their upcoming nine-game road trip. Before his injury, Rutschman was hitting .251 with eight home runs and a career-low 14.1 percent strikeout rate over 284 plate appearances for the Orioles in 2026.
