Murphy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

Murphy owns an .817 OPS for the season, but with rookie Drake Baldwin sporting an even hotter bat (.983 OPS), the playing time behind the dish has begun to tilt in the youngster's favor. The two backstops seem to be moving into a loose platoon behind the dish, as the right-handed-hitting Murphy has made each of his last three starts against left-handed pitching but now finds himself out of the lineup for a fifth straight matchup with a righty (Trevor Williams).

Alvarez is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Boston.

After starting each of the last three games, Alvarez will get a breather in Wednesday's series finale. The Mets will turn to Luis Torrens at catcher as they try to avoid being swept.

Triple-A Albuquerque reinstated Romo (finger) from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Romo didn't play Tuesday in Albuquerque's 7-6 loss to Reno, but the 23-year-old backstop is healthy again after a finger injury sidelined him for the first seven weeks of the season. He was cleared to report to Albuquerque after going 3-for-16 with a walk, a stolen base, two runs and an RBI over five rehab games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Hicks is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Over the past month, Hicks has slashed .372/.413/.744 over a stretch of 13 games and has earned a larger role as a result, but he's still not locked into a full-time role while the Marlins have Agustin Ramirez and Nick Fortes on hand at catcher and a number of other options available to handle designated-hitter duties. Hicks will remain on the bench for a second straight game with Ramirez handling catching duties Wednesday and with Matt Mervis getting the nod at DH.

Kelly is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

With Miguel Amaya running hot at the plate of late, Cubs manager Craig Counsell has turned the catcher spot into more of a timeshare. Kelly will take a seat for the second time in the series while Amaya gets a chance to build on the five-RBI performance he delivered in Monday's 8-7 loss.

Contreras is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Orioles.

Contreras will get a rare day off after starting in each of the last 11 games, with all but one coming at catcher. Eric Haase will fill in behind the dish and bat sixth as the Brewers try to complete the sweep.

Bart is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Reds.

Bart started at catcher in both of the first two games of the series, so he will get some rest for Wednesday's rubber match. Henry Davis will start at catcher and bat ninth for the Pirates.

Fortes went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 14-1 loss to the Cubs.

The backstop took Jameson Taillon deep in the third inning for the Marlins' only offense of the night. It was Fortes' first homer of the season, while the start was his sixth in May over 17 games as he continues to split the workload behind the plate with rookie Agustin Ramirez and Liam Hicks. On the month, Fortes is batting just .136 (3-for-22).

Moreno went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Dodgers.

Moreno's ninth-inning blast forced the extra inning. The homer, his third of the season, was his second long ball in as many games and extended his hitting streak to four games. Moreno is 7-for-15 with five extra-base hits and four RBI during the streak.

Diaz is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays.

It's a routine day off for Diaz, as Martin Maldonado will bat ninth and catch for Dylan Cease. Diaz has slashed .239/.314/.370 with three home runs, six RBI, 14 runs scored and a 10:20 BB:K across 103 plate appearances this season.
