Raleigh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Raleigh looks to be receiving a maintenance day after he went 1-for-8 with an RBI while starting at catcher in both of the first two games of the series in Milwaukee. Seby Zavala will replace Raleigh behind the plate for the finale in Milwaukee.

Ruiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Ruiz will get a breather for the day game after he was behind the dish for both of the past two contests while going 0-for-8 with a strikeout. Riley Adams will draw the start at catcher and form a battery with pitcher MacKenzie Gore.

D'Arnaud is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Arizona.

He'll be getting a routine maintenance day after he was behind the dish for both of the first two games of the series with the Diamondbacks. Chadwick Tromp will spell d'Arnaud as Atlanta's catcher Sunday.

Moreno is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Moreno will rest for the afternoon game after he was behind the dish for both of the Diamondbacks' first two contests in Atlanta while going 1-for-9 with a walk and an RBI. Tucker Barnhart will handle catching duties in the series finale.

Contreras (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Contreras was initially in the lineup Saturday before being scratched as he continues to battle hand soreness after being hit by a pitch Wednesday, and he won't return to the starting nine for Sunday's series finale versus Miami. Ivan Herrera will receive another look behind the plate for St. Louis, but the Cardinals anticipate that Contreras will return to action at some point during the club's upcoming three-game series with the Phillies that begins Monday, per John Denton of MLB.com.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Rogers is on the bench for the second day in a row and the fourth time in six games, with each of those absences coming against right-handed pitching. At least for the time being, he may have moved into the smaller side of a timeshare with Carson Kelly behind the dish.

Realmuto went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and two runs scored in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Nationals.

Realmuto came around to score Philadelphia's first run of the game on an Alec Bohm triple in the second inning before blasting a three-run shot in the next frame to extend the lead to four runs. It was the catcher's second long ball of the season, and he's tallied two hits in back-to-back contests. Furthermore, Realmuto has now hit safely in six straight after going 0-for-3 in the Phillies' first game of the season, raising his average to .333 in the process.

Bart went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 5-4 extra-innings win over the Orioles.

Incredibly, Bart went yard on his very first swing as a member of the Pirates -- his first home run in the big leagues since Sept. 10, 2022, as noted by Alex Stumpf of MLB.com. Bart, the second overall pick by the Giants in 2018, struggled to find his footing in parts of fours seasons in San Francisco, but he's getting a fresh start in Pittsburgh after being acquired via trade this week. He will play behind Henry Davis at the catcher position with Yasmani Grandal (foot) on the injured list and not close to a return.

McGuire isn't in the Red Sox's lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

McGuire belted a home run during Friday's win against the Halos and will now sit out the second game of the series. Connor Wong will take over as Boston's backstop and bat eighth.

Pinto isn't in the Rays' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Pinto has struck out in each of his last five at-bats since Tuesday, so he'll get a day to regroup Saturday. Ben Rortvedt will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth.
