The Baltimore Orioles' catcher Maverick Handley has been placed on the 7-day concussion injured list following a collision during a game against the New York Yankees. This comes just one day after his recall from the minors to fill in for Adley Rutschman, who is sidelined with a left oblique strain. With both Handley and Rutschman out, Chadwick Tromp steps in as the primary backup to Gary Sanchez, who has also seen his share of injuries this season.

In a significant roster move, infielder Ryan Mountcastle has been placed on the 60-day injured list due to a right hamstring strain, retroactive to late May, and is expected to miss 8-12 weeks. The Orioles have been scrambling to manage their catching duties amidst these injuries, with Tromp returning after previously filling in when both Sanchez and Rutschman were on the injured list. The current situation raises questions about team depth and the performance of catchers in the Orioles' lineup.
