Raleigh (side) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Raleigh indicated Sunday that he's feeling better since experiencing right side tightness during Friday's game against the Royals, but he'll be held out of the starting nine for the third straight game while the Mariners await results of the MRI he underwent to gain more information about the severity of his injury. Mitch Garver will receive another turn behind the plate Monday, and the Mariners also recalled Jhonny Pereda from Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday to provide more insurance at catcher while Raleigh remains day-to-day.

Realmuto is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Miami.

Realmuto started each of the previous two contests after returning from the injured list, but he will get a breather for Monday's series finale. Garrett Stubbs will start at catcher and bat eighth for the Phillies.

The Marlins optioned Ramirez to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Ramirez has not done enough offensively to make up for his defensive shortcomings, slashing just .230/.318/.345 with two home runs. He will get a reset at Jacksonville while Liam Hicks and Joe Mack handle catching duties for the Marlins.

The Marlins selected Mack's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Mack earned his first big-league promotion after slashing .244/.388/.378 with three home runs and a 20:22 BB:K in his first 24 contests with Jacksonville. According to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, Mack is in line to start in Monday's series finale versus the Phillies, and the 23-year-old should be in store for ample playing time while sharing reps at catcher with Liam Hicks. Mack is worth a pickup in two-catcher fantasy leagues where he's still available.

Wynns went 0-for-3 with a run scored and a walk in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

With Shea Langeliers away from the team following the birth of his child, Wynns drew a rare start behind the dish Sunday but was largely unable to capitalize, reaching base only once via a walk in the sixth inning. The 35-year-old has appeared in 13 games this season, going 3-for-35 (.086) with three singles and three walks. With an off day Monday, Langeliers is likely to return to the lineup for Tuesday's series opener in Philadelphia, sending Wynns back to a reserve role.

Soderstrom went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's win over the Guardians.

Soderstrom was the last of three Athletics hitters to homer, driving a solo shot off lefty Parker Messick in the fifth inning to go back-to-back with Zack Gelof. Coming off a breakout campaign with an .820 OPS in 2025, Soderstrom hasn't gotten off to a stellar start in 2026, though he has still produced at times, and Sunday's effort was a step in the right direction. Through 32 games, the left fielder is slashing .221/.304/.426 with four homers, 11 doubles, a triple, 19 RBI, 17 runs and a stolen base.

Romo went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Padres.

Romo has three homers over his last three games. The catcher is filling the backup role behind Edgar Quero while Kyle Teel (hamstring) remains on the injured list. Romo is batting .300 (3-for-10), with all of his hits being homers so far this season. He's added four RBI, four runs scored and a 5:3 BB:K across 16 plate appearances since he was called up from Triple-A Charlotte on April 25.

Rogers went 2-for-3 with a triple and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Rangers.

Rogers delivered his first triple of the season and just the seventh of his six-year MLB career. The veteran catcher hasn't delivered many hits in general this year, as he's batting just .182 in a backup role to Dillon Dingler. Rogers doesn't have much fantasy value due to his lack of regular playing time and poor production in general so far.

Del Castillo entered Sunday's game as a pinch hitter and hit a two-run home run in an 8-4 loss to the Cubs.

Although Del Castillo homered for the second time in four games, his bat has been largely silent the last two weeks. He entered Sunday on a 3-for-29 (.103) run over the previous eight games. Del Castillo's offense was the main factor in him landing a spot on the 26-man roster, and if he continues to roll along with a .222 average and .671 OPS, playing time could diminish. The club envisioned him being a DH with the possibility of playing some first base, but that was before both Ildemaro Vargas (1.063 OPS in 107 plate appearances) and Jose Fernandez (.775 in 97 PAs) became more reliable sources of offense.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer, a double, three additional RBI and an additional run scored in Sunday's 11-6 win over Colorado.

With Drake Baldwin at designated hitter, Heim drew the start at catcher and made the most of it, matching a career high with five RBI. He opened the scoring for Atlanta with a two-run blast in the second inning before adding another extra-base hit with a two-RBI double in the ninth to extend the lead. The 30-year-old's playing time has been limited with Baldwin's success behind the plate, as Heim has logged 45 plate appearances in 2026, slashing .231/.311/.410 with a homer, four doubles, eight RBI and four runs.
