J.T. Realmuto C | PHI
Phillies' J.T. Realmuto: Remains out Game 1
Realmuto (hip) is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Marlins, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Realmuto exited Saturday's contest during the eighth inning with hip discomfort, and it remains unclear if he'll be available for either of Sunday's contests. However, the fact the Phillies didn't promote a catcher when announcing roster moves early in the day could bode well for his outlook. Andrew Knapp will start behind the plate in the matinee.

Sean Murphy C | ATL
Athletics' Sean Murphy: Drives in pair
Murphy went 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored in the second game of a doubleheader against the Rangers on Saturday.

Realmuto was removed from Saturday's win over the Marlins with hip discomfort, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic reports.

Jose Trevino C | CIN
Rangers' Jose Trevino: Remains out for nightcap
Trevino (wrist) is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the A's.

Danny Jansen C | TEX
Blue Jays' Danny Jansen: Not in Saturday's lineup
Jansen is not starting Saturday against the Mets.
Jansen has hit a very poor .146/.294/.303 on the season. His playing time could take a hit down the stretch depending on whether Alejandro Kirk, who makes his big-league debut behind the plate Saturday, has success as he makes the jump up from High-A.

Christian Vazquez C | HOU
Red Sox's Christian Vazquez: Day off Saturday
Vazquez is not in the lineup Saturday against the Rays.
Vazquez has seen his numbers fall off from his career-best .797 OPS last season, though his .718 this year is an acceptable mark for a catcher. Kevin Plawecki will start behind the plate in his absence.
-
Jose Trevino C | CIN
Rangers' Jose Trevino: Not starting first game
Trevino (wrist) is not in the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against Oakland.
Trevino left Wednesday's game against the Angels after spraining his left wrist and hasn't played since then. Whether or not he'll return to the lineup for the nightcap remains to be seen. Jeff Mathis will start behind the plate in his absence.
