BALTIMORE -- Adley Rutschman is back for the final week of the 2025 season.

During Monday’s off-day, the Orioles reinstated Rutschman from the 10-day injured list after the 27-year-old catcher had been sidelined with a right oblique strain since Aug. 21 (retroactive to Aug. 18). Baltimore made room on its 28-man active roster by optioning utility infielder Luis Vázquez to the club’s Spring Training complex.

Right-hander Scott Blewett (who was designated for assignment on Friday) cleared outright waivers and accepted an assignment to the O’s Spring Training complex.

Although the Orioles have only six games remaining -- three at home against the Rays and three vs. the Yankees in New York -- Rutschman will look to finish strong and build positive momentum to take into the offseason.
