Hedges went 2-for-5 with a two-RBI double and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-0 win over Detroit.

The catcher knocked in a pair during Cleveland's six-run rally in the second inning before scoring on a Jose Ramirez home run. Hedges also scored in the third after hitting a single. The 28-year-old has recorded multiple hits in four of his last 10 games, but he's also gone hitless in five of those contests. He's posted a .178/.216/.267 slash line with five home runs, 21 RBI, 20 runs scored and two doubles through 209 plate appearances.

Nido is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Nido started behind the dish in Saturday's 2-1 loss and went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts, but he'll be back on the bench for the series finale while James McCann catches for starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco. Given that Nido has picked up five starts in August to McCann's nine, Nido looks like the clear No. 2 backstop for New York.

Nola is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

After catching in four of the Padres' last five games while going 4-for-14 at the plate, Nola will get some rest for the series finale. Victor Caratini will catch starting pitcher Craig Stammen on Sunday.

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

Diaz is getting a routine maintenance day after he went 1-for-8 while starting the past two games at catcher. Dom Nunez replaces Diaz behind the dish.

Stassi is not in the lineup Sunday against the Astros.

Stassi started the first two games of the series and will receive a breather in the finale. Kurt Suzuki will take over behind the plate for the Halos.

Sanchez (COVID-19) will report to Double-A Somerset for a rehab assignment Sunday and could rejoin the Yankees on Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Sanchez is expected to receive two or three at-bats with Somerset before rejoining the big-league club. The 28-year-old has been on the shelf since Aug. 5 after testing positive for COVID-19, but he's nearing his return to the active roster.

Wong was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

The 25-year-old was sent to Triple-A on Saturday but will quickly rejoin the Red Sox with Josh Taylor (undisclosed) being placed on the COVID-19 IL. Christian Vazquez and Kevin Plawecki remain healthy, so Wong is unlikely to see much action during this stint in the majors.

Jackson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

After catching three consecutive games for Miami while going 2-for-12 with a home run and a pair of walks, Jackson will get some routine maintenance for the series finale. Jorge Alfaro -- who has been serving as Miami's everyday left fielder of late -- will replace Jackson behind the dish.

Narvaez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

After catching the second game of Saturday's twin bill, Narvaez will take a seat due to the quick turnaround for Sunday's series finale. Manny Pina will step in behind the dish, catching for starting pitcher Eric Lauer.

Heim is not in the lineup Sunday against the Athletics.

Heim will take a seat versus left-hander Sean Manaea, who starts Sunday for Oakland. Jose Trevino will take over behind the plate in the series finale.
