Orioles Acquire Catcher Alex Jackson from Yankees Amid Sanchez Injury
The Baltimore Orioles acquired catcher Alex Jackson from the New York Yankees in exchange for international signing bonus pool money and either a player to be named later or cash considerations, following Gary Sánchez's placement on the 10-day injured list due to a sprained right knee. Jackson, 29, was called up from Triple-A Norfolk and is expected to serve as the Orioles' No. 2 catcher behind Jacob Stallings, providing much-needed depth amid multiple injuries to the team's catching corps, including star Adley Rutschman, Maverick Handley, and Chadwick Tromp. Jackson has major league experience with four different teams and has hit .226 with 10 home runs in 44 games at Triple-A this season, though his major league batting line is less robust. Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino expressed confidence in Jackson and Stallings' ability to quickly contribute despite the team's current injury challenges. Additionally, infielder Jorge Mateo was transferred to the 60-day injured list to make room on the roster for Jackson. The Yankees acquired international bonus pool space in return and will receive a player or cash later as part of the deal.
