The Baltimore Orioles disclosed their strategy regarding injured catcher Samuel Basallo on July 26. Basallo is sidelined due to right shoulder discomfort, a significant issue as the Orioles are also without catcher Adley Rutschman, who has left wrist discomfort. Basallo has been shut down for several days to allow recovery, with hopes of resuming baseball activities without needing a rehab assignment. However, lingering soreness could extend his absence, which poses a challenge for a team battling to stay competitive. To fill the gap, the Orioles are relying on Sam Huff and Chadwick Tromp while they navigate their current position in the standings.
