Handley will remain stationed at Triple-A after spending the last month on the injured list with a right wrist sprain. There’s no room for him in Baltimore with Adley Rutschman and top prospect Samuel Basallo handling the catching duties.

Handley will remain on the injured list, but it’ll be his wrist rather than a concussion that keeps him from returning to the lineup. The 27-year-old backstop should be back near the start of August if there’s no setbacks in his rehabilitation.

Handley, who was to back up Gary Sánchez after Adley Rutschman went on the IL with an oblique strain Saturday, was hurt in a collision with Jazz Chisholm Jr. during Sunday’s game against the Yankees. Chadwick Tromp will fill in for him.

Handley was inadvertently knocked completely off his feet on a scary-looking collision with Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. while attempting to field an errant throw up the third-base line during the early stages of Sunday’s game. He’ll be evaluated for a possible concussion in addition to other potential injuries. There should be an update on his status ahead of Monday’s series opener against the Rangers. It’s worth noting that Samuel Basallo wasn’t scratched from Sunday’s lineup at Triple-A Norfolk and is unlikely to be called up as temporary stopgap, despite injuries to both Handley and Adley Rutschman (oblique).

Handley was led up the third-base line to field an off-target throw to the plate, which took him directly into the path of an oncoming Chisholm, resulting in a scary-looking collision. The 27-year-old backstop was clearly shaken up on the play and left with an athletic trainer. He’ll undoubtedly undergo further evaluation and testing for a possible concussion. There should be an update on his status following the contest. It’s an unfortunate development for the Orioles since Handley had just returned to the majors to replace an injured Adley Rutschman. It’s too soon to speculate, but the club would likely have to find some emergency catching depth or consider calling up top prospect Samuel Basallo if Handley winds up missing sigificant time.

Handley fortifies Baltimore’s catching situation while franchise cornerstone Adley Rutschman is on the injured list with an oblique strain. The unheralded 27-year-old backstop went 3-for-40 during a 15-game stint with the club earlier this season while Gary Sánchez was on the shelf. He’ll serve in a backup role behind Sánchez for the next few weeks.

With Gary Sanchez (wrist) returning from the injured list on Saturday, Handley was no longer relevant as a depth option on the Orioles’ bench and will return to a regular role at Triple-A Norfolk. The 27-year-old is just 3-for-40 (.075) with a 17/2 K/BB ratio in his time with the Orioles this season.

The 27-year-old backstop hit a sacrifice fly off of Tyler Anderson in the fifth inning that tied the game at 2-2. He then plated a run with a sacrifice bunt during the O’s three-run uprising in the sixth inning. He’s just 1-for-9 (.111) since joining the Orioles at the end of April, but at least he now has a couple of RBI to his credit.

Handley gets the call to join the Orioles ahead of Monday’s game against the Yankees with veteran backstop Gary Sánchez hitting the injured list with wrist inflammation. The 27-year-old backstop will be making his big-league debut if he gets into a game.
