Rutschman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants. After breaking out of an extended slump with a home run among his two hits in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers, Rutschman was back on the struggle bus in Tuesday's 10-0 loss to San Francisco, going 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. He'll give way to James McCann behind the plate Wednesday, but Rutschman should continue to see the bulk of the starts at catcher over the final week and a half of the season as the Orioles hope to get him back in peak form at the dish heading into the postseason.

Rutschman went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers. This was Rutschman's first homer in nearly a month, and he hit just .175 (14-for-80) over 22 contests between long balls. It's been an unusually long slump for the star catcher, which has seen him drop to fifth in the order after most frequently batting second for most of the season. He's still got some time to set aim for his second straight 20-homer year -- he's one shy now while adding 76 RBI, 63 runs scored, one stolen base and a .254/.324/.400 slash line over 137 contests.

Rutschman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies. The slumping Rutschman will hit the bench for the second time in the series while the Orioles and Rockies wrap up their three-game set with a day game. James McCann will get a start behind the plate in place of Rutschman, who is slashing just .202/.279/.311 with two home runs, 12 RBI and 14 runs in 36 games since the All-Star break.

Rutschman is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies. Rutschman had started each of the Orioles' last eight games (six at catcher, two at DH) but will get the night off Friday. James McCann will fill in behind the dish while Eloy Jimenez handles DH.
