On trade deadline day, the Orioles presented a steep request to the Yankees: star catcher Adley Rutschman in exchange for pitching prospect Elmer Rodríguez, catcher Austin Wells, outfield prospect Yostin Pena, and one of two young starting pitchers—either Will Warren or Ryan Weathers. The Yankees declined this offer, likely due to a tight deadline imposed by the Orioles since Rutschman was on the injured list. Consequently, the Red Sox acquired Rutschman for a comparable package of prospects, leading many to praise the Orioles' trade strategy. The Orioles received pitching prospect Anthony Eyanson and several promising young players in exchange for Rutschman and backup catcher Jake Rogers.
