Red Sox Trade for 3x All-Star Catcher Adley Rutschman From the Baltimore Orioles
- On Monday, August 3, 2026, the Boston Red Sox acquired three-time All-Star catcher Adley Rutschman from the Baltimore Orioles in a major trade deadline deal.
- Baltimore committed to 21-year-old catcher Samuel Basallo, who signed an 8-year, $67 million extension last year, making Rutschman expendable.
- Rutschman is on the 10-day injured list with left wrist inflammation after playing 67 games this season with eight home runs and 47 RBIs.
- Boston also received catcher Jake Rogers and cash, while sending major league catcher Carlos Narvaez and prospects Anthony Eyanson and Kyson Witherspoon to Baltimore.
- Rutschman remains under team control through 2027, giving the Red Sox 1.5 years of production as they have won 23 of their past 26 games.
