Adley Rutschman Targets Saturday Return to Hitting Amid Trade Rumors

Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman, currently sidelined with a wrist injury, is set to resume hitting on Saturday. President of baseball operations Mike Elias indicated a rehab assignment could begin next week. As a three-time All-Star, Rutschman has also emerged as a high-profile trade candidate as the Orioles evaluate their roster following three seasons of uneven play, with teams like the Yankees reportedly monitoring his status.
