Fermin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

He'll receive a breather after starting behind the dish the past two games while going 3-for-7 with a home run and two RBI. Elias Diaz will fill in for Fermin at catcher Wednesday.

Alvarez (triceps) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Alvarez was lifted for a pinch runner in the eighth inning of Tuesday's 8-3 win after he was plunked by a Bradgley Rodriguez 100-mph fastball during his fourth and final plate appearance. Though Alvarez -- who has been playing through a broken pinkie finger on his left hand and a torn UCL in his right thumb -- has now been hit on the left arm by a pitch three times in the last three weeks, he'll be able to fight through any lingering soreness and step back in behind the dish Wednesday.

The Mets optioned Senger to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

Francisco Alvarez (triceps) was cleared to play Wednesday and Luis Torrens (forearm) is back from the injured list, so the Mets no longer had room on the active roster for Senger. The 28-year-old Senger has produced a .415 OPS in 33 games with the Mets in 2025.

The Mets activated Torrens (forearm) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Torrens needed only a minimum stay on the IL with a right forearm contusion. Francisco Alvarez (triceps) is back in the lineup Wednesday against the Padres after exiting Tuesday's 8-3 win, so Torrens will serve as the team's backup catcher.

McCann will start at catcher and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Giants.

McCann will crack the lineup for the third time in four games after going 3-for-8 with two home runs and six RBI in his previous two starts. So long as he's swinging a hot bat, McCann will likely be able to play fairly regularly at catcher, clearing the way for Gabriel Moreno to see more time at designated hitter.

Pages is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Reds.

Pages had a pair of hits in Tuesday's win over the Reds but will grab a seat for Wednesday's series finale. Jimmy Crooks will start at catcher and bat seventh in the rubber match.

Stephenson is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in St. Louis.

Stephenson started at catcher in the first two games of the series, so he'll get a breather for Wednesday's matinee. Jose Trevino will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth for the Reds.

Davis is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Cubs.

Davis started behind the plate in Tuesday's 4-1 loss, but Wednesday will mark the third time he's been out of the lineup over the last four contests. Prior to that, he had started four times over a five-game stretch. Joey Bart will step in behind the dish and bat fifth Wednesday.

Flores will start at first base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game versus the Cubs.

Flores was summoned from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday and will make his major-league debut Wednesday. The Pirates started Henry Davis at catcher Tuesday and are going with Joey Bart behind the plate Wednesday, so the team may not intend to give Flores extended run behind the plate down the stretch. He will, however, get his feet wet at first base, filling in for a resting Spencer Horwitz.

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

Kelly will head to the bench for the day game after he started behind the plate Monday and Tuesday while going 3-for-9 with a double. Reese McGuire will handle catching duties for the Cubs in the series finale.
