    • Slugs homer Sunday
      Thaiss went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Sunday's loss to Cleveland.

      Advice: Thaiss made the most of just his second start behind the plate over the past week, walloping a 446-foot two-run shot in the fifth inning for his first homer of the campaign. The veteran is firmly behind 24-year-old backstop Logan O'Hoppe on the catching depth chart -- Thaiss has only 46 plate appearances on the season to O'Hoppe's 172. When he has played, Thaiss has mostly struggled, slashing .200/.304/.350 with a 32.6 percent strikeout rate. Rotowire.com Monday, 11:31 am
       
    • Picks up first steal
      Herrera went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Herrera is in a bit of a slump, having gone 1-for-12 with four walks and four strikeouts over his last five games. The catcher's steal Sunday was the first of his career. He's added a .262/.336/.355 slash line with three home runs, 15 RBI and 14 runs scored over 122 plate appearances this season. Herrera continues to occupy a starting role behind the dish with Pedro Pages as backup while Willson Contreras (forearm) is likely out until mid-July. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:22 am
       
    • Reinstated, optioned to Triple-A
      Marchan (back) was activated from the injured list and optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday.

      Advice: Marchan will effectively continue his rehab assignment with Lehigh Valley with no pressing need for a third catcher at the big-league level. The 25-year-old backstop has not appeared in the majors since 2021, but he could get a look later in the season if there is an injury behind the plate in Philadelphia.

    • Not in Monday's lineup
      D'Arnaud is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: Sean Murphy is making his long-awaited return from the injured list Monday, so d'Arnaud will begin this one on the bench. It's likely that Murphy won't shoulder too big of a workload initially, so expect d'Arnaud to continue seeing plenty of reps. The 35-year-old should retain value in two-catcher leagues even with his playing time expected to dip. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:20 am
       
    • Not starting Monday
      Lee is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Lee has wrestled the starting catcher job for the White Sox away from Martin Maldonado, but he's really struggled lately in going 4-for-27 with 14 strikeouts. Maldonado will do the catching for Nick Nastrini on Monday. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:23 am

    • Sitting Sunday
      Amaya is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest against St. Louis.

      Advice: After going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in Saturday's 7-6 loss to the Cardinals, Amaya will begin Sunday's game in the dugout. Yan Gomes will start behind home plate and bat ninth against Cardinals right-hander Sonny Gray. Rotowire.com Sunday, 1:52 pm
       
    • Not starting Sunday
      Bethancourt is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Arizona.

      Advice: Bethancourt started behind home plate in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Arizona, going 1-for-3 with two strikeouts. Nick Fortes will serve as the catcher Sunday and bat ninth against Diamondbacks left-hander Blake Walston. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:59 pm
       
    • Losing hold of regular role
      Soderstrom is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Soderstrom finds himself on the bench for the fourth time in five games, with three of his absences coming when the Athletics have faced right-handed starters. After slashing .211/.302/.368 since getting called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on May 8, Soderstrom appears to have lost hold of his regular role at first base. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:13 pm
       
    • Absent from lineup
      O'Hoppe is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Guardians.

      Advice: O'Hoppe will rest Sunday after starting in the first two games of the series, going 3-for-8 with one home run and two RBI. The lefty-hitting Matt Thaiss will start behind home plate and bat eighth against Cleveland right-hander Ben Lively. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:59 am
