Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Getting night off
Adley 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 Baltimore Orioles hope to get him back in peak form at the dish heading into the postseason.

Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Homers in Sunday's loss
Adley 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.

Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Homers in return
Adley Rutschman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Red Sox.Rutschman was scratched from the lineup Friday due to back soreness, and he didn't start Saturday, though he went 0-for-2 off the bench. This was his first homer since July 19 -- he hit a poor .216 (16-for-74) over 23 games between long balls. That rough patch has dulled the shine of Rutschman's overall stats, as he's now at a .266/.331/.428 slash line with 18 homers, 70 RBI, 59 runs scored, 16 doubles and a stolen base over 114 contests. Despite the recent struggles, Rutschman's heavy workload between catcher and designated hitter gives him ample fantasy appeal. There's also a fair chance he bounces back, as he struck out at just an 11.9 percent rate during his power drought.
