Realmuto went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 7-5 loss to Detroit.

Realmuto has now hit fourth or fifth in Philadelphia's lineup for 11 consecutive games, and the move up the batting order should amplify the veteran catcher's RBI upside as long as Alec Bohm (ribs) remains on the injured list. Since the start of July, Realmuto is hitting a torrid .345 with two home runs, eight doubles, 11 RBI and 10 runs scored over 21 outings (87 at-bats).

Bailey is not in the Giants' starting lineup against the Mets on Saturday.

Bailey will get a breather after going 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Friday's extra-inning win over the Mets. Andrew Knizner will serve behind the dish and bat eighth.

Alvarez (head) will start at catcher and bat eighth Saturday against the Giants.

Alvarez was struck in the helmet by a foul tip Wednesday and was held out of Friday's series opener, but he never suffered any concussion symptoms and has been given the green light to return to the starting lineup. Alvarez has gone 6-for-21 (.286) with one triple, one home run and two RBI in the seven games since being recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on July 21.

Goodman is not in the Rockies' starting lineup against the Pirates on Saturday.

Goodman will get a breather while Austin Nola serves behind home plate and bats eighth. In 11 games since the All-Star break, Goodman has gone 13-for-45 (.289) with two doubles, three home runs and nine RBI.

Kelly is not in the Cubs' starting lineup against the Orioles on Saturday.

Kelly will take a seat after going 2-for-3 with a run in Friday's 1-0 win over Baltimore. Reese McGuire will serve behind home plate and bat eighth.

Smith isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Smith will rest his legs Saturday after tallying four hits, two RBI and two runs scored over his last three games. Dalton Rushing will replace him behind the plate and bat eighth.

Bailey went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Mets.

Bailey lined a double to right field in the seventh inning, driving in a run to give the Giants a 3-0 lead. He then added a single in the ninth, marking his fourth multi-hit performance in 12 games since the All-Star break. During that span, he's slashing .244/.273/.317 with three RBI, three doubles and two runs scored across 45 plate appearances.

Bart went 0-for-1 with four walks, two runs and an RBI in Friday's 17-16 loss to the Rockies.

Bart has now drawn at least one walk in each of his last four starts to bring his on-base percentage up from .327 to .355 for the season. The Pirates are continuing to use Bart in a timeshare behind the dish with Henry Davis, and the arrangement will likely continue for the balance of the season unless one of the two catchers dramatically outperforms the other.

Contreras went 5-for-7 with a double, a home run, three runs scored and two RBI in Friday's 16-9 win over the Nationals.

The Brewers rattled off a season-high 25 hits, with Contreras leading the way, and he launched his ninth homer of the year off Ryan Loutos in the seventh inning. The acquisition of Danny Jansen at the trade deadline should allow Contreras to get more rest down the stretch, and he got the start at DH on Friday while Jansen slotted in behind the plate. Contreras hadn't lived up to expectations in 2025, but he's catching fire at the right time for Milwaukee's playoff chances -- the 27-year-old has four straight multi-hit performances with two doubles, three homers, five RBI and nine runs, and over 25 games since the beginning of July he's slashing .311/.351/.472.

Kelly went 2-for-3 with a run scored in Friday's 1-0 win over the Orioles.

Kelly had half of Chicago's hits and scored the team's lone run in the low-scoring affair. The veteran catcher had a productive July, slashing .290/.370/.581 with four home runs and 10 RBI in 18 games, and he's off to a good start in August. Kelly is locked in as the Cubs' top backstop, though the eventual return of Miguel Amaya (oblique) could cut into his playing time a little bit.
