Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that Rushing isn't a candidate to be moved ahead of the trade deadline, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports. "I just don't see a world in which he's moved anyway, and I think he's smart enough to realize that," Roberts said.

The caveat, of course, is that the team's front office -- not Roberts -- is the entity responsible for making any trade decisions on Rushing. That said, Roberts' confidence about Rushing remaining with the club past the deadline isn't all that surprising, given that the rookie backstop entered the campaign as one of baseball's top catching prospects. Rushing has struggled at the plate since getting called up to the majors May 14, posting a .200/.270/.275 slash line with one home run, 11 RBI and a 40.4 percent strikeout rate over 89 plate appearances. That said, Roberts pointed out that a learning curve is understandable since the 24-year-old is having to adjust to sporadic playing time.

Davis isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus San Francisco.

Davis has gone 0-for-24 at the plate since July 11, and his recent struggles will cause him to give up another start behind the plate to Joey Bart, who will bat eighth Tuesday.

Alvarez isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Alvarez's six-game hitting streak came to an end with his 0-for-2 performance Monday, though he still managed to reach base twice via walks. Luis Torrens will fill in for him behind the dish Tuesday and bat ninth.

Maldonado isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Maldonado will retreat to the bench for the third straight game Tuesday while Elias Diaz starts behind the dish. Neither backstop has been particularly productive at the plate this season, though the Padres may be starting to favor using Diaz as their primary catcher.

Stephenson is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

Stephenson started at catcher in Monday's series opener but will take a seat in the second contest of the three-game set. Jose Trevino will be behind the dish and bat ninth for the Reds.

The Giants signed Cartaya to a minor-league contract Monday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Cartaya was released by the Twins last week after going 5-for-59 with 40 strikeouts at Triple-A St. Paul. He's a former top prospect and still just 23, so the Giants felt Cartaya warranted a look on a minor-league pact.

Adams went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's victory over the Astros.

Adams snapped a 1-1 tie in the seventh inning Monday with a solo home run that held up as the game-winner for the Nationals. The catcher has had a rough 2025 campaign, slashing .169/.217/.346 with five doubles, six home runs and 16 RBI over 42 games. With Keibert Ruiz (concussion) sidelined, Adams has been sharing catching duties with Drew Millas.

Goodman went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-6 win over the Guardians.

Goodman helped spark a late comeback, launching a solo homer in the eighth inning and following with an RBI double during a four-run ninth. The All-Star has remained locked in since the break, tallying four multi-hit efforts with four extra-base hits, seven RBI and four runs over eight contests. On the season, he's slashing .282/.327/.523 with 19 homers, 59 RBI, 50 runs scored and one steal across 379 plate appearances.

The Brewers designated Haase for assignment Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

With Danny Jansen joining the Brewers via trade with Tampa Bay, the Brewers needed to create a 40-man roster spot, and Haase is the odd man out in Milwaukee. Haase slashed .229/.289/.357 with two home runs, nine RBI, 11 runs scored and a 4:31 BB:K across 77 plate appearances this season.

Baldwin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

The left-handed-hitting Baldwin will be given a breather in the series opener while the Royals send southpaw Rich Hill to the bump. Marcell Ozuna will get the nod at designated hitter in place of Baldwin, who hit .250 with five doubles, nine RBI and five runs while starting in each of Atlanta's previous 10 games.
