Campusano is not in Saturday's lineup against the Dodgers.

Campusano is hitting .304 with one home run and three doubles in seven games this month. Kyle Higashioka is starting at catcher and batting ninth.

Lee is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the Guardians.

Lee will begin Saturday's game in the dugout while Martin Maldonado gets the start at catcher and bats ninth against Cleveland right-hander Triston McKenzie. Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday, and the 25-year-old is 7-for-18 with two home runs and four RBI over five games in May.

Reetz was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.

With Patrick Bailey getting activated off the concussion injured list, Reetz was no longer needed for catching depth at the big-league level. Reetz has a .217/.357/.435 slash line with two home runs in 15 games at Triple-A.

Bailey (concussion) was activated from the 7-day injured list Saturday and is starting behind the dish and hitting third against the Reds.

Bailey hit .278 with three home runs and one steal in 25 games prior to suffering a concussion May 3. He should take on the primary catcher role going forward.

Wong is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Wong will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 2-for-4 while scoring Boston's lone run in Friday's loss. The lefty-hitting Reese McGuire will start at catcher and bat seventh against Washington right-hander Jake Irvin.

Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday against the Guardians.

Lee took Carlos Carrasco deep in the seventh inning to tally his fourth home run of the season, three of which have come in his last 11 games. He's gone 11-for-33 in that span, also chipping in five RBI and four runs scored. Lee remains in a near even split for playing time with Martin Maldonado behind the plate.

Campusano went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a double in Friday's 2-1 win over the Dodgers.

Campusano opened the scoring with a third-inning solo shot. He added a double in the ninth, and pinch runner Tyler Wade scored on Luis Arraez's walkoff single. Campusano has reached base safely in each of his last six games, going 7-for-19 (.368) with two walks and six RBI in that span. The catcher is up to three homers, 10 doubles, 23 RBI, 17 runs scored and a .283/.323/.442 slash line through 35 contests this season in a starting role behind the plate.

Contreras went 1-for-3 with two walks and three runs scored in Friday's win over the Cardinals.

Contreras was the offensive catalyst for the Brewers on Friday night as he crossed the plate a team-high three times. He also collected his third multi-walk game of the season as part of a fantastic start to 2024. The 26-year-old catcher is slashing .340/.420/.520 with five homers, 30 RBI and 35 runs scored over 174 plate appearances.

O'Hoppe isn't in the Angels' lineup Friday versus the Royals.

O'Hoppe will get a breather Friday after tallying six hits across his last three games. While he rests, Matt Thaiss will fill in as Los Angeles' backstop and bat sixth.

The Pirates transferred Delay (knee) to the 60-day injured list Friday.

Delay will give up his spot on the 40-man roster in order to make room for Daulton Jefferies, who was acquired in a trade with the Giants on Friday. Delay was already expected to be out until July after undergoing knee surgery in April, so his move to the 60-day IL has virtually no impact on his return timeline. He has resumed catching during bullpen sessions, but he still has a long way to go before returning to the Pirates' lineup.
