Quero is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

Quero will get a breather for the day game after he had started at either catcher or designated hitter in four of Chicago's last five contests. Matt Thaiss will get the nod behind the plate Wednesday while Andrew Vaughn serves as the White Sox's designated hitter.

Caratini is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Caratini was behind the dish for the first two games of the series, but he'll get a breather for the Wednesday afternoon contest while Yainer Diaz handles the catching duties. Until Yordan Alvarez (hand) returns from the injured list, the Astros should have regular spots in the lineup available for both Diaz and Caratini at either catcher or designated hitter. Caratini had started in nine of the Astros' previous 11 games.

Jansen is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

Jansen caught both of the first two contests of the series, so he will get a breather in Wednesday's matinee. Ben Rortvedt will be behind the dish and bat ninth for the Rays.

Narvaez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Mets.

Narvaez led off the bottom of the fifth inning with a home run into the Monster seats that turned out to be the game-winning hit. The legend of the backup catcher continues to grow. Narvaez is 16-for-37 (.432) with five extra-base hits, seven RBI and eight runs scored over the last 12 games. As important as Tuesday's home run was, Narvaez's work behind the plate was equally key. Starter Walker Buehler was ejected early for arguing balls and strikes, forcing the backstop to shepherd six different relievers through 6.2 scoreless innings.

Langeliers went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Angels.

Langeliers ended an eight-game stretch without a homer when he went deep in the fourth inning. The catcher is up to nine long balls this season, though he's hit just three of them over 16 games in May. He's added a .256/.320/.463 slash line, 25 RBI, 21 runs scored, three stolen bases and six doubles through 43 contests this season.

O'Hoppe went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Athletics.

O'Hoppe recorded his third multi-hit effort in the last four games, a span in which he's also homered twice and added seven RBI. Prior to this strong stretch, he endured a 2-for-27 slump over his previous eight games. The catcher is up to 11 long balls, 25 RBI, 15 runs scored and a .264/.296/.500 slash line across 41 contests this season.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Yankees.

Heim was able to get the Rangers on the board in the ninth inning, when he took Ian Hamilton deep to right field for a two-run homer. Heim has gone 4-for-10 with one home run and five RBI over his last three starts.

Nido was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Tuesday.

With Jake Rogers (oblique) back from the 10-day IL, Nido gets the boot from the Tigers' 40-man roster. Nido spent six weeks with Detroit, slashing .343/.361/.343 with two RBI, four runs scored and a 0:10 BB:K across 37 plate appearances. He even tossed 1.2 scoreless innings of relief against the Cardinals in a blowout loss Monday.

Dingler is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in St. Louis.

Jake Rogers is behind the dish Tuesday in his first game back from the injured list. Playing time at catcher between Dingler and Rogers will likely be divvied up fairly evenly moving forward.

The Tigers activated Rogers (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Rogers missed six weeks with a strained oblique but is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Cardinals, catching for Tarik Skubal. With Rogers reinstated, Detroit designated Tomas Nido for assignment. Rogers and Dillon Dingler are likely to share time behind the plate moving forward.
