Kelly is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

Kelly will take a seat for the day game after he caught all nine innings of Wednesday's 7-5 loss while going hitless in four at-bats. Jake Rogers will get the starting nod behind the plate in the series finale.

Trevino went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in an 11-5 win against the Royals on Wednesday.

Trevino capped a huge first inning for the Yankees with his three-run blast that made the score 6-0. It was the backstop's first homer since May 18 and ended a stretch of 13 games without any extra-base hits. Trevino has been pretty solid offensively overall this season, though, slashing .272/.321/.416 with six homers, 23 RBI and 17 runs through 138 plate appearances.

Davis went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Wednesday in a 4-2 loss to the Cardinals.

Davis gave Pittsburgh its second run of the contest with a solo shot to center field in the eighth inning. The long ball was his first in what has been a very disappointing season, as he's slashing a meager .157/.273/.241 through 99 plate appearances. With Joey Bart (thumb) on the injured list, Davis has been splitting time behind the plate with veteran Yasmani Grandal.

Herrera went 3-for-4 with a run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-2 win against the Pirates.

Herrera and Nolan Arenado both had three hits for St. Louis in the win, combining for over half of the team's total base knocks. Herrera helped generate a run in the fourth inning when he led off with a single, advanced to second on another single, stole third and crossed the plate on an infield hit. The backstop has four multi-hit performances through 10 contests in June and is batting .314 (11-for-35) overall this month.

Grandal is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.

Grandal will give way to Henry Davis behind the plate after catching in three of the Pirates' previous four games. Since returning to action May 3 after a season-opening stint on the injured list while he recovered from plantar fasciitis, Grandal has hit just .163 with two home runs, one stolen base, 12 RBI and six runs through his first 25 games with Pittsburgh.

Torrens is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Torrens will take a seat for the second day in a row after closing out the weekend with his third consecutive start, but the 28-year-old journeyman has performed well enough since joining the team May 31 to stick around with the big club over fellow backstop Tomas Nido, who was designated for assignment Tuesday. Francisco Alvarez came off the 10-day injured list Tuesday and should see the bulk of the starts at catcher moving forward, even though Torrens has produced three extra-base hits through his first 18 plate appearances with the Mets.

O'Hoppe (groin) isn't in the Angels' lineup Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

O'Hoppe had to leave Tuesday's game after getting hit below the belt by a foul tip, and he will remain out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest. Matt Thaiss will fill in behind the dish while batting fifth.

Hedges will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Reds.

With the lefty-hitting Bo Naylor hitting the bench with southpaw Nick Lodolo taking the hill for the Reds, Hedges will get a turn behind the plate. Hedges will be making his 19th start of the season and has provided most of his value on the defensive end, as he enters Wednesday's contest with an ugly .130/.158/.204 slash line.

Naylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

With lefty Nick Lodolo on the hill for Cincinnati, the lefty-hitting Naylor will retreat to the bench. Austin Hedges will step in for Naylor behind the plate.

Wells isn't in the Yankees' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Wells will take a seat Wednesday after launching his second home run of the season during Tuesday's win. Jose Trevino will start behind the plate instead and bat eighth.
