  • Henry Davis C | PIT

    Pirates' Henry Davis: Filling in for banged-up Rodriguez

    Davis will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

    Davis will be making his fourth straight start behind the dish while Endy Rodriguez continues to miss time while nursing a hip injury. The Pirates are treating Rodriguez as day-to-day, and if Rodriguez is able to avoid a trip to the injured list and return to the lineup in the near future, Davis will likely see his playing time fall by the wayside.

  • Pirates' Endy Rodriguez: Missing out on fifth straight start

    Rodriguez (hip) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

    Rodriguez will be relegated to the bench for a fifth consecutive game while he contends with left hip discomfort. Henry Davis will get another start at catcher in place of Rodriguez, whom the Pirates are viewing as day-to-day.

  • Guardians' Patrick Bailey: Taking seat Wednesday

    Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

    Bailey will get a breather after he started behind the plate in the Guardians' previous two contests. The Guardians will turn to Austin Hedges to handle catching duties Wednesday.

  • Padres' Luis Campusano: Resting Wednesday

    Campusano is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

    Campusano will rest up for Wednesday's matinee after he caught all nine innings of the Padres' 11-2 win Tuesday night while going 3-for-4 with a home run, a walk, three RBI and an additional run. Freddy Fermin will spell Campusano behind the dish in the series finale.

  • Reds' Tyler Stephenson: Exiting starting nine

    Stephenson is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the White Sox.

    It's routine day off after Stephenson started each of the last two games. Jose Trevino will do the catching and bat seventh for the Reds.

  • Mariners' Willie MacIver: Scooped off waivers by Mariners

    The Mariners claimed MacIver off waivers from the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

    MacIver will report to Triple-A Tacoma, where he will provide the Mariners with some catching depth. The 29-year-old has hit .270/.344/.459 at the Triple-A level in 2026.

  • Yainer Diaz C | HOU

    Astros' Yainer Diaz: Resting up Wednesday

    Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

    The Astros will give Diaz a breather for Wednesday's matinee after he caught eight innings of a 4-1 loss Tuesday night. Christian Vazquez will step in behind the plate in place of Diaz.

  • Yohel Pozo C | BAL

    Orioles' Yohel Pozo: Available off bench Wednesday

    Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said that Pozo (finger) will be available off the bench for Wednesday's game in Minnesota, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Pozo had to be removed from Tuesday's contest with a finger injury after taking a bat to the catcher's mitt, but X-rays were clean and he won't have any limitations Wednesday. The 29-year-old is 3-for-10 with a home run early on in his tenure in Baltimore.

  • Jonah Heim C | ATH

    Athletics' Jonah Heim: Out of Wednesday's lineup

    Heim is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Rays.

    Heim started at catcher in each of the Athletics' last three games, so he will get some rest during Wednesday's matinee. Brian Serven will be behind the dish.

  • Phillies' Mark Kolozsvary: Healthy again, sent to Double-A

    Kolozsvary (undisclosed) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts Tuesday for Double-A Reading after he was assigned to the affiliate when he was activated from Triple-A Lehigh Valley's 60-day injured list.

    Kolozsvary finished the 2025 campaign in the Red Sox organization on Triple-A Worcester's full-season injured list before signing a minor-league deal with Philadelphia in December. The 30-year-old catcher remained shelved to begin the season before starting up a rehab assignment in the Florida State League shortly after the All-Star break. Deemed healthy again after making 12 appearances in the lower levels of the minors, Kolozsvary looks set to fill a depth role at Reading.
