Torrens went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and five RBI in Monday's 13-3 win over the Phillies.

The veteran catcher put together one of the best games of his career, tying his career high with five RBI. Torrens lined an RBI double in the sixth, then launched a three-run homer off Jordan Romano in the seventh to blow the game open before adding a run-scoring single in the eighth. Remarkably, the five RBI matched his total from his previous 53 games this season combined, a stretch in which he batted just .194.

Amaya (ankle) has started running on a treadmill but is "still weeks away" from a return, manager Craig Counsell said, per MLB.com.

Amaya was carted off the field after stepping awkwardly on first base and spraining his ankle during a game on Aug. 13. It was a tough break for the catcher, who was making his first appearance for the Cubs since May 24 after recovering from an oblique injury. Amaya may be able to help Chicago late in the season and in the playoffs, though fantasy managers shouldn't expect much more from the 26-year-old in 2025.

Davis is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Davis had started behind the plate in four of the Pirates' last six games, going 3-for-12 with two doubles, one walk, one stolen base, one RBI and two runs during that stretch. He'll give way to Joey Bart on Monday, but Davis could be Option 1A at catcher for the Pirates for the time being.

Alvarez (thumb) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment Wednesday or Thursday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

At the time Alvarez was placed on the 10-day injured list Aug. 19 due to a UCL sprain in his right thumb, he appeared to be at risk of missing the rest of the regular season, but the 23-year-old has seemingly been able to manage the discomfort in his hand better than anticipated just over a week after sustaining the injury. He's been able to take batting practice over the last few days and doesn't appear to have suffered any setbacks in his hitting progression, putting him on track to report to an affiliate around the middle of the week. Alvarez could remain on assignment through the weekend but may be ready for activation when the Mets' active roster expands to 28 men Sept. 1. He's still expected to require surgery at some point during the offseason to address the thumb injury, but with a projected recovery timeline of eight weeks, Alvarez should be back to full health ahead of spring training.

Senger is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

While Luis Torrens tended to a sore hand, Senger made three consecutive starts behind the plate from Thursday through Saturday, going 2-for-12 with four RBI and a run scored. Torrens returned to the lineup for Sunday's 4-3 win over Atlanta and will draw another start behind the plate in Monday's series opener versus the Phillies, so Senger looks set to see limited usage as the Mets' No. 2 backstop until Francisco Alvarez (thumb) returns from the injured list.

Torrens will start at catcher and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Phillies.

A sore left hand kept Torrens out of action for three straight games before he re-entered the lineup Sunday in the Mets' 4-3 loss to Atlanta. Torrens' hand checked out fine after going 1-for-3 with a base hit while playing eight innings behind the dish, so he'll stick in the starting nine for the second straight day as the Mets open a three-game set with the Phillies. Torrens is likely to see the bulk of the starts at catcher until top backstop Francisco Alvarez (thumb) is ready to return from the injured list.

Ramirez went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Blue Jays.

The 23-year-old backstop swiped his 10th bag in 105 big-league games, and between the majors and Triple-A this season, Ramirez is 15-for-17 on steal attempts. The speed offers an extra element to his fantasy appeal, but he's also slugged 18 homers with 57 RBI in his first taste of the Show, and his .232/.288/.430 slash line is significantly below his expected numbers based on the underlying metrics -- his bat speed is in the 89th percentile, while his average exit velocity (75th percentile) and hard-hit rate (73rd percentile) are strong as well. Ramirez seems poised to emerge as one of the league's top offensive catchers as soon as 2026.

Rushing went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Padres.

Rushing was 0-for-9 with four strikeouts over his previous four games. He broke the slump in the seventh inning, putting the Dodgers ahead for good when he took Jeremiah Estrada deep. Rushing is up to three homers, 19 RBI, 12 runs scored and three doubles while slashing .187/.246/.299 over 118 plate appearances. He continues to serve as the backup to Will Smith behind the plate.

Marchan went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and three RBI in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Nationals.

Marchan drove in all of the Phillies' runs, delivering a two-run double in the second inning before working a bases-loaded walk in the third. It marked a rare bright spot in what's been a tough season for the backup catcher, who's slashing .183/.280/.256 with one homer, nine RBI and six runs scored across 94 plate appearances.

Diaz went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Dodgers.

Diaz put the Padres ahead 2-1 in the third inning with his homer, but that was the extent of their scoring. He's seen limited playing time in August, as Freddy Fermin has taken over as San Diego's top catcher. Diaz has gone 3-for-19 (.158) over seven games this month, so he's not doing much to make a stronger case for playing time. Overall, the 34-year-old backstop has a .198/.269/.308 slash line with six homers, 24 RBI, 29 runs scored and seven doubles across 253 plate appearances this season.
