  • William Contreras hits three-run blast vs. Astros
    William Contreras connected on a three-run homer to help the Brewers to a 4-2 win over the Astros on Saturday.

    Advice: Contreras absolutely shellacked a Justin Verlander offering to center — travelling an estimated 428 feet — to give the Brew Crew a 4-1 lead. The 26-year-old backstop has been sensational in 2024 with seven homers, 37 RBI and an OPS of .990. That’s a star level of offense even before you consider that he’s doing it as a catcher.

  • Perez drives in two on Saturday
    Salvador Perez went 1-for-4 with two RBI against the Athletics on Saturday.



    Advice: Perez had a two-run single in the first inning that opened the scoring. The 34-year-old backstop has been great this year as he’s hitting .333 with a .949 OPS. His walk percentage is nearly double what it usually is at 7.8 percent and his strikeout percentage of 15 percent would be his lowest since 2015. Still, we can’t expect Perez to keep up this average as his .368 BABIP is 77 points higher than his career .291 BABIP.

  • Not starting Saturday
    Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

    Advice: Rogers has gone 0-for-9 and struck out five times across his past three games, so the Tigers will turn to Carson Kelly on Saturday in hopes of getting more offensive output from their catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 2:21 pm
  • Sitting down Saturday
    D'Arnaud (head) isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: D'Arnaud exited Friday's contest with dizziness after taking a foul ball off his facemask, but he was cleared of a concussion immediately after the game. As a precaution, Atlanta will give the 35-year-old backstop the next two days off, but he is available to play in an emergency situation, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Chadwick Tromp will fill in behind the dish Saturday and Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:50 pm
  • Not starting Saturday
    Ruiz isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Ruiz is slashing just .147/.190/.221 through 100 plate appearances on the year, so he will give way to Riley Adams on Saturday as the Nats look for more production at the plate from their catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 12:29 pm
