Baltimore Orioles Get Promising Adley Rutschman Injury Update
Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman had an update on his injury.
The Baltimore Orioles received a promising update during their current series against the Cleveland Guardians from catcher Adley Rutschman, who has been sidelined for one week with a left ankle injury. Rutschman was placed on the 10-day injured list on April 11 after sustaining the injury while running to second base on a double during a game against the San Francisco Giants. He felt his ankle tweak on the play, finished the game, but woke up the next morning with significant swelling.
The setback halted what had been a strong start to his season. However, Rutschman is hoping he can return sooner rather than later. “Adley Rutschman (ankle), who traveled with the club despite being on the IL, said he’s ‘feeling good.
’ He doesn’t want to get ahead of himself and predict when he could return, but he seems optimistic. The earliest he can return is Tuesday,” reported Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. Adley Rutschman (ankle), who traveled with the club despite being on the IL, said he’s “feeling good.
