The 35-year-old backstop was designated for assignment earlier in the week as the Orioles chose Alex Jackson to stick around following the return of Adley Rutschman. Stallings is expected to accept the outright assignment and will serve as extra catching depth for the O’s at Triple-A Norfolk.

Stallings joins Baltimore’s injury-depleted catching mix to pair with Gary Sánchez ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Rangers. The well-traveled 35-year-old latched on last week with the Orioles on a minor league pact and will get his chance following a back injury to Chadwick Tromp. He was cut loose earlier this month by the Rockies after hitting .143 (12-for-84) over 28 games this season. He’s appeared in 561 contests in the big leagues dating back to 2016.

Stallings provides Baltimore with some experienced emergency catching depth while Adley Rutschman (oblique) and Maverick Handley (concussion) are on the injured list. The 35-year-old veteran backstop was cut loose earlier this month by the Rockies after hitting .143 (12-for-84) over 28 games this season. He’s appeared in 561 contests in the big leagues dating back to 2016.

The Rockies entered the ninth inning facing a 2-0 deficit having but completely shut down by Kris Bubic and Lucas Erceg through the first eight frames. They rallied with two outs as three consecutive Rockies’ hitters worked Carlos Estévez for walks, then Stalling delivered a bases-clearing double to give the Rockies a 3-2 lead. It would be short-lived though. The 35-year-old backstop finished the night 1-for-4 and is slashing a woeful .156/.289/.219 on the season with no homers and five RBI.

With two runners on base in the fourth inning, Stallings doubled to left field to plate both runs the Rockies would score against the Dodgers on Tuesday. It was just the third hit of the season for the 35-year-old backstop while driving in his first two runs. Stalling carries no relevancy in most formats outside of deep two-catcher leagues.
