Resting up Monday
Rutschman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.
Analysis
The Orioles will give Rutschman a well overdue day off after he started at either catcher or designated hitter in each of the last 11 games, going 13-for-42 (.310 average) with one home run, seven walks, 10 RBI and seven runs during that span. With Rutschman resting, the Orioles will turn to Sam Huff behind the plate, while Gunnar Henderson gets a day off from playing shortstop but sticks in the lineup at DH.

Excellent night in Toronto
Rutschman went 4-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, a home run and five RBI during the Orioles' 13-3 win over the Blue Jays on Friday.
Analysis
Rutschman got the Orioles on the board early with a solo home run off Trey Yesavage in the first inning. Rutschman kept his foot on the gas, tying things up at 3-3 in the sixth inning with a two-run double before adding another two runs on a double to center field in the ninth. His four hits were a season high, and his five RBI were his most in a game since April 24 against the Red Sox (six). Rutschman is slashing .273/.352/.506 with eight home runs and 36 RBI over 196 plate appearances this season.
