Adley Rutschman is set to return to Baltimore on Thursday as the Red Sox open a four-game series at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Orioles traded the 28-year-old catcher to Boston on August 3 in a deal involving several prospects, including Anthony Eyanson, Kyson Witherspoon, Enddy Azocar, and a player to be named later, Harold Rivas. Rutschman has struggled since joining Boston, batting.170 with one home run while recovering from a wrist injury and missing time with a hyperextended elbow. Meanwhile, former Red Sox prospects involved in the swap have seen varying results, with Azocar finding success at High-A Frederick and Eyanson delivering strong performances for Double-A Chesapeake. Kyson Witherspoon currently resides on the injured list with a shoulder impingement. The series represents the first time Rutschman has faced his former organization since the mid-season transaction.
- •Adley Rutschman is batting.170 since being activated by the Red Sox.

- •Enddy Azocar has recorded 21 home runs across the Red Sox and Orioles systems.
