The Orioles pull off a gritty, injury-driven trade, acquiring catcher Jake Rogers from Detroit in exchange for minor league pitcher Zane Barnhart. With star catchers Adley Rutschman and Samuel Basallo sidelined, Baltimore’s offense has cratered behind makeshift backstops who’ve combined for just two hits in 35 at-bats since July 19. Rogers, though hitting just .161 with a career average under .200, offers stability behind the plate — while Barnhart, with a 4.05 ERA in 31 relief outings, brings little upside. It’s a messy, necessary move that underscores how teams scramble to stay afloat when injuries strike.
