2026 MLB Rookies Ready to Shake Up the Game: Who Will Become the Next Superstar?
Samuel Basallo, Baltimore Orioles
Position: C/1B; Age: 21; B/T: L/R; Highest 2025 Level: MLB
For now, Orioles general manager Mike Elias is saying all the right things about the organization still being committed to Adley Rutschman being their regular catcher. But the club made it clear late last season they are intrigued by the prospects of the 21-year-old Basallo ultimately growing into that role as the primary backstop.
While Basallo underwhelmed at the plate in his 31-game cameo with the O’s (a .165 average with four homers), his electrifying arm behind the plate popped. The 6-4 backstop threw out five of 13 base stealers (38.4%) – a mark improved over the 27.3% he threw out in the minor leagues since 2021.
