The Orioles have traded for catcher Alex Jackson from the Yankees, using international signing bonus pool money and possibly a player or cash considerations. Jackson is currently not on the 40-man roster, meaning no immediate roster move is needed unless he is selected. This transaction follows an injury to catcher Gary Sanchez, who experienced right knee pain in a recent game and is undergoing an MRI. Additionally, catcher David Banuelos has been added to the medical taxi squad as the team assesses Sanchez's situation, and Jackson offers a potential replacement.
