Orioles Move Catcher Amid Basallo Injury
Description
Baltimore Orioles make a quick roster move, calling up catcher Sam Huff from Triple-A Norfolk while designating Weston Wilson for assignment—triggered by Samuel Basallo’s early exit from Friday’s game due to abdominal discomfort. Huff, a former Rangers prospect with limited MLB experience, steps in as insurance behind Adley Rutschman, having already shown flashes with a couple hits in nine at-bats. Wilson, a versatile utility player with modest stats and limited time in the majors, may reject a minor league assignment and become a free agent if he clears waivers. The Orioles are prioritizing catcher depth as Basallo’s recovery timeline remains uncertain.
