The Orioles selected Handley's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.
The Orioles were in need of a catcher after placing Gary Sanchez (wrist) on the 10-day injured list, prompting Handley's promotion to the majors to serve as the backup catcher to Adley Rutschman. Handley has started the Triple-A season strongly, slashing .346/.433/.558 with two stolen bases, 11 runs scored, one home run and five RBI in 60 plate appearances. He'll have an opportunity to make his major-league debut when Rutschman takes a planned rest day.

Orioles' Maverick Handley: Dealing with hand injury
Rotowire
Handley was placed on the 7-day injured list Wednesday at Triple-A Norfolk with a hand contusion, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
