Jansen left Sunday's game against the Astros with an undisclosed injury, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

It's not clear what Jansen may have injured, but his removal came shortly after sliding into third base. Reese McGuire replaced him behind the plate. Further updates on the backstop should become available later Sunday.

Trevino is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

Jonah Heim will check in behind the dish in the series finale while Trevino receives a breather. Trevino had started at catcher in five of the Rangers' last six games, going 1-for-12 with a home run and two RBI.

Stassi is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Mariners.

Stassi sat during Friday's game before going 2-for-5 with a homer as Saturday's starter. He'll retreat to the bench in favor of Kurt Suzuki on Sunday.

Godoy is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Angels.

Godoy will get his second game off in the last three days, with Tom Murphy taking over the catching duties Sunday.

McGuire is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Though Danny Jansen will be behind the dish in the series finale, McGuire may have supplanted him as the team's preferred backstop for the time being. McGuire caught four of the previous six games, and his .542 OPS -- while poor -- is still 38 points better than Jansen's own mark over a larger sample of plate appearances. At the very least, a timeshare between the two catchers could be in place until one of the two dramatically separates himself from the other from a performance standpoint.

Rogers is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the White Sox.

Rogers is not in the starting nine for the third time in five games. Eric Haase will get the start behind the dish and bat fifth.

Hedges is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Hedges will get a breather after starting the first two games of the series. Rene Rivera will work behind the plate and bat ninth.

Stassi went 2-for-5 with a home run, two runs, an RBI and two strikeouts in a 12-5 win over Seattle on Saturday.

Stassi's fourth-inning solo home run was Los Angeles' first of 11 straight runs after falling behind 5-1 and triggered a big comeback win. He has a hit in three straight starts since returning from injury and is now slashing .275/.356/.450 in 14 games.

Haase went 2-for-4 with a pair of homers and three RBI in Saturday's 4-3 win over the White Sox.

Haase got to Lucas Giolito for a two-run homer in the second inning and connected for a solo shot against Chicago's ace two innings later. Haase, who's now homered three times in the last two games, is hitting .266/.329/.656 with seven long balls and 11 RBI on the campaign.

Murphy isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

Murphy had started each of the last five games and hit .250 with a home run, three doubles, seven RBI and two runs. Aramis Garcia will take over at catcher and bat eighth.
