Smith is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

Smith was behind the dish for both of the first two games of the series, so he'll get some rest during Wednesday's matinee. The Dodgers will roll out Dalton Rushing at catcher in the rubber match.

The Twins released Cartaya on Wednesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Cartaya was acquired from the Dodgers via trade over the offseason but looked completed lost at Triple-A St. Paul, going 5-for-59 with 40 strikeouts before he was placed on the development list July 1 and ultimately cut loose. The former top prospect is still just 23 years old, but his future in baseball looks murky.

Raleigh is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Brewers.

Raleigh slugged his 39th home run of the season for the game's only run in Tuesday's 1-0 victory, but he will get some well-deserved rest during Wednesday's matinee. The All-Star catcher is getting just his second day off since June 9. Mitch Garver will step in behind the plate and bat sixth for the Mariners in the series finale.

Pages is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Colorado.

The Cardinals are closing out their series in Colorado with a day game, so Pages will get some rest after starting behind the plate Monday and Tuesday. Yohel Pozo will handle catching duties and bat eighth for St. Louis on Wednesday.

Fermin will start at catcher and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

With the Royals using Salvador Perez at first base or designated hitter more frequently of late, Fermin has benefited from extra playing time. Fermin will be making his fourth start in five games Wednesday.

Alvarez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

After getting called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Alvarez started behind the plate in the first two contests of the series and went 2-for-6 with a home run, a double, two walks, two RBI and two additional runs. Luis Torrens will get the nod behind the plate for Wednesday's day game, but so long as he's swinging a hot bat, Alvarez could be in store for the bulk of the starts at catcher.

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

Davis will get some rest for Wednesday's matinee after he started behind the plate in three of the Pirates' previous four games. Joey Bart will handle the catching duties in the series finale with Detroit.

O'Hoppe is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Mets.

O'Hoppe will sit out Wednesday's matinee after starting at catcher in each of the previous three games. Travis d'Arnaud will be behind the dish and bat seventh in O'Hoppe's stead.

Maldonado is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Maldonado will get some rest for Wednesday's day game after he started behind the plate in the first two games of the series while going 2-for-6 with a pair of doubles, an RBI and a run. Elias Diaz will handle catching duties in the series finale.

Adams is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Reds.

Adams went 1-for-3 with two RBI while starting at catcher in Tuesday night's 6-1 win, so he'll get some rest for Wednesday's matinee contest. Drew Millas will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth as the Nationals go for the sweep.
