The Orioles acquired Jackson from the Yankees on Sunday in exchange for $250,000 in international signing bonus pool money, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports. Baltimore selected Jackson's contract from Triple-A Norfolk, and he'll be available for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

With the Orioles' catching depth taking another hit after Gary Sanchez sprained his knee Saturday, Jackson was brought in to provide a much-needed healthy body behind the plate. The 29-year-old Jackson owns a .132/.224/.232 slash line in 340 plate appearances across parts of five seasons in the big leagues, and in 44 games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2025, he's batted .226 with 10 home runs and a 10.4 percent walk rate. He'll temporarily settle in as Baltimore's No. 2 catcher behind Jacob Stallings, though Jackson will likely lose his spot on the 40-man roster once one of Sanchez, Adley Rutschman (oblique), Maverick Handley (concussion) or Chadwick Tromp (back) returns from the IL.
