Herrera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Herrera started the first two games of the season and went 4-for-7 with a walk, two doubles, two RBI and a run, and he'll receive a well-deserved rest Sunday. Pedro Pages is stepping in behind the plate to catch for righty Andre Pallante.

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

Bart will get a breather after he started behind the plate in each of the first three games of the series, going 4-for-12 with two walks, two runs, one RBI and one stolen base. Endy Rodriguez will fill in for Bart, starting at catcher and batting sixth.

Narvaez made his first start of the season and went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Texas.

Boston hitters failed to deliver the first 11 times they came to the plate with runners in scoring position before Narvaez broke the fever with an eighth-inning single. The veteran beat out Seby Zavala this spring to be the backup to Connor Wong at catcher.

Kirk is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Kirk will receive a breather Sunday as the Blue Jays and Orioles wrap up their season-opening series with an afternoon game. Tyler Heineman will step in behind the plate in place of Kirk, who started at catcher in each of the first three games versus Baltimore while going 2-for-11 with an RBI and a run.

Realmuto (foot) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Realmuto departed Saturday's contest for precautionary reasons due to a left foot contusion, and he'll miss at least one game due to the injury. Rafael Marchan will step in behind the plate to catch for right-hander Aaron Nola on Sunday.

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

With Tyler Stephenson (oblique) opening the season on the injured list, Trevino has stepped in as the Reds' top backstop, starting the first two contests behind the dish while going 0-for-5 with a walk. He'll be rested for Sunday's matinee in favor of Austin Wynns, but Trevino should continue to see the lion's share of the starts at catcher until Stephenson is deemed ready to make his 2025 debut.

Rogers went 1-for-4 with a triple and a run scored in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Dodgers.

After sitting out Friday's contest, Rogers returned to the lineup and contributed his first triple of the season. It was just the catcher's fifth career triple, as he's not known for his speed. Rogers figures to make his mark with power after hitting a total of 31 home runs over the past two years. Detroit has alternated starts behind the plate between Rogers and Dillon Dingler to begin the season.

Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle

Bailey will get a breather after he was behind the plate for the first two games of the series in Cincinnati, going 1-for-7 with an RBI and a run. Sam Huff will draw his first start of the season at catcher while Bailey rests up.

Ruiz went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer in a 11-6 loss to the Phillies on Saturday.

The catcher hit his second homer in as many games after taking a changeup from Jesus Luzardo the other way 414 feet to left-center field. The blast gave Washington an early 2-0 lead that it would ultimately not be able to hold. Ruiz hit 31 home runs in the previous two seasons as Washington's primary catcher, but he's showing more power early in 2025.

Wells went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 20-9 romp over the Brewers.

With a left-hander starting on the mound for Milwaukee, Wells batted sixth in the lineup rather than occupying the leadoff spot as he did on Opening Day. However, that didn't affect his performance at the plate, as the third-year catcher went deep in the first inning for one of four Yankees long balls in the frame and one of a franchise-record nine hit by the team overall in the win. After an eye-opening six-homer performance during Grapefruit League play, Wells has continued to impress at the start of the regular season, going deep in each of his first two contests.
