  • Diamondbacks' Adrian Del Castillo: Scoring change removes two RBI

    Del Castillo lost a triple and two RBI as the result of a scoring change, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

    Del Castillo logged his first career triple to drive in two runs in a win over Baltimore on April 15, but MLB changed the scoring on the play to an error. Thus, a five-RBI day was lowered to three, and the catcher still seeks a triple. Del Castillo is slashing .263/.282/.395 with one home run and nine RBI over 10 games played.

  • Cal Raleigh C | SEA

    Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Goes deep again Tuesday

    Raleigh went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in a loss to the Athletics on Tuesday.

    Raleigh accounted for Seattle's only extra-base hit of the game with a solo homer in the fifth inning. It was the star catcher's second long ball in as many days after he went deep just twice over his first 23 contests of the campaign. Raleigh is still sporting a meager .177/.266/.333 slash line and 30.3 percent strikeout rate, but his recent power surge could be an indication that he's beginning to turn things around at the plate.

  • Athletics' Shea Langeliers: Homers in second straight game

    Langeliers went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in a 5-2 win against Seattle on Tuesday.

    Langeliers gave the A's a 4-2 lead with a 417-foot solo shot to center field in the seventh inning. It was his second home run in as many days and his eighth this season, tops among MLB catchers and tied for fourth most overall in the league. Langeliers is slashing .312/.379/.613 and has added 14 RBI along with 17 runs as he makes an early bid for his first All-Star berth.

  • Braves' Drake Baldwin: Smacks sixth homer in loss

    Baldwin went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 11-4 loss to the Nationals.

    Baldwin tagged lefty Foster Griffin for a solo shot in the third inning, snapping a 12-game homerless drought for the catcher. It was Baldwin's sixth long ball of the season and his second off a left-handed pitcher. The 25-year-old is now slashing .310/.378/.530 with six homers, 22 RBI, 25 runs scored and a 9:20 BB:K across 111 trips to the plate.

  • Jose Trevino C | CIN

    Reds' Jose Trevino: Could rejoin team Wednesday

    Trevino (back) could be activated Wednesday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

    Trevino has ramped up his activity since last Friday, when he caught in the bullpen and hit in the batting cage. He caught a simulated inning Monday and was one of the batters Nick Lodolo (finger) faced in a sim game Tuesday.

  • Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Makes splash in return

    Rutschman (ankle) went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Royals.

    Rutschman made his presence felt in his return from the 10-day injured list, launching homer No. 1 on the season. The switch-hitting catcher is off to an impressive start at the dish following a disappointing 2025, when he posted a career-worst .673 OPS across 90 games. Over 43 plate appearances so far in 2026, Rutschman is slashing .316/.395/.553 with seven extra-base hits, five RBI, five walks and four runs scored.

    Quero went 2-for-9 with two RBI in the three-game series versus the Athletics over the weekend but failed the reach base Saturday and Sunday. As he rests Tuesday, Reese McGuire gets the start behind the dish, batting ninth.

  • Will Smith C | LAD

    Dodgers' Will Smith: Absent from lineup

    Smith isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

  • Blue Jays' Tyler Heineman: On bench Tuesday

    Heineman isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

    Heineman has been struggling at the plate as of late, going just 1-for-12 with an RBI and a run over his last five games. He'll get a breather Tuesday; meanwhile, Brandon Valenzuela will start at catcher and bat ninth.

  • Eric Haase C | SF

    Giants' Eric Haase: Selected from Triple-A

    The Giants selected Haase's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Haase's selection comes as a corresponding move to Daniel Susac (elbow) being placed on the 10-day injured list along with Jose Butto (arm) being transferred to the 60-day injured list. Haase has slashed .250/.300/.472 across 40 plate appearances in nine games for Sacramento to begin 2026. He'll serve as the backup catcher to Patrick Bailey with Susac down.
