  • Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Resting Wednesday

    O'Hoppe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

  • Kyle Teel C | CHW

    White Sox's Kyle Teel: Sitting Wednesday

    Teel is not in the White Sox's starting lineup against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

    With veteran southpaw Clayton Kershaw taking the mound, the lefty-hitting Teel will be on the bench for the start of Wednesday's game. Edgar Quero will work behind home plate and bat fifth.

  • Cal Raleigh C | SEA

    Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Not starting Wednesday

    Raleigh is not in the Mariners' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    Wednesday will be just the third time this season that Raleigh gets a breather, with Mitch Garver serving behind home plate and batting sixth. Raleigh has a 1.049 OPS with three steals, 11 homers and 27 RBI since the beginning of June, and he leads the majors with 33 home runs this season.

  • Red Sox's Carlos Narvaez: Getting rest Wednesday

    Narvaez isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    Narvaez will rest his legs Wednesday after going 7-for-19 with a homer, five RBI and four runs scored across his last five contests. Connor Wong will fill in at catcher and bat ninth.

  • Gary Sanchez C | MIL

    Orioles' Gary Sanchez: Back in lineup at designated hitter

    Sanchez (finger) will start at designated hitter and bat fifth in Wednesday's game versus the Rangers.

    Sanchez exited Tuesday's 10-2 loss and underwent X-rays after a foul tip struck one of his fingers. The tests came back negative, and Sanchez is feeling well enough to handle a non-defensive role in Wednesday's series finale. Jacob Stallings will draw the start at catcher for Baltimore.

  • Austin Wells C | NYY

    Yankees' Austin Wells: Remains out Wednesday

    Wells (finger) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Toronto.

    Wells had been expected to return from his finger injury to start Wednesday, but instead he'll miss a fourth straight game while dealing with arterial damage in his left index finger. Ben Rice will start at catcher and bat leadoff for the Yankees.

  • Tigers' Dillon Dingler: Idle for early game

    Dingler is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader in Washington.

    Jake Rogers will get the nod behind the plate in the first game of the day while Dingler rests up. Expect Dingler to start at catcher in the second game of the day.

  • Athletics' Shea Langeliers: Grabbing seat in series finale

    Langeliers is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rays.

    Langeliers hit home runs Monday and Tuesday in his first two games back from the injured list and will receive a breather for Wednesday's matinee. Austin Wynns will start at catcher and bat sixth for the Athletics.

  • Danny Jansen C | TEX

    Rays' Danny Jansen: On bench for series finale

    Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.

    The right-handed-hitting Jansen continues to serve as the Rays' primary catcher against left-handed pitching, but he and the lefty-hitting Matt Thaiss have essentially been working in a timeshare against righties since the latter backstop was acquired from the White Sox on May 27. Thaiss will get the nod behind the dish Wednesday after Jansen had started each of the last three contests, two of which came while the Athletics sent lefties to the hill.

  • Astros' Victor Caratini: Belts grand slam

    Caratini went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Tuesday's win over the Rockies.

    Caratini helped power the Astros to a win Tuesday with a third-inning grand slam, his seventh home run of the season. The veteran catcher has been hovering around league average at the dish in 2025, slashing .246/.303/.402 with 14 extra-base hits, 23 RBI and a 97 OPS+ in 57 games.
