    • Not starting Monday
      Contreras (head) is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: Contreras was evaluated for concussion following Sunday's 5-4 win over the Reds after his head collided with Stuart Fairchild on a tag at home plate in the ninth inning. With Contreras out for the series opener Monday, Gary Sanchez will start behind home plate and bat eighth against Halos right-hander Jose Soriano. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:01 pm
       
    • Back on bench Monday
      Knizner is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Sam Huff will step in behind the dish in the series opener after Knizner started at catcher in all three of the Rangers' games in Seattle over the weekend while going 1-for-9. Top backstop Jonah Heim (personal) is on track to return from the paternity list Tuesday, so Knizner will soon move back to second on the depth chart and see his playing time trend toward.

    • Getting rest Monday
      Kelly is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Kelly will get a breather after he started behind the plate both of the past two days. Jake Rogers will step in as the Tigers' starting catcher Monday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:18 pm
       
    • Will Smith moves into second spot in Dodger lineup
      The Dodgers have Will Smith batting second in between Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman Monday in their first game since losing Mookie Betts.

      Advice: Manager Dave Roberts indicated last night that Ohtani would lead off, but Smith jumping ahead of Freeman is a little bit of a surprise. It does make sense, particularly since it allows the Dodgers to go lefty-righty-lefty-righty at the top. Teoscar Hernández, as expected, is in the cleanup spot that’s typically been manned by Smith.

    • Sitting against lefty again
      Campusano is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: The Padres seem to have opted for a de facto platoon at catcher of late, even though both Campusano and Kyle Higashioka are right-handed hitters. Higashioka will stick in the lineup Monday for the fourth time in the Padres' last five matchups with lefties, while Campusano will take a seat. Campusano should still see the bulk of the playing time behind the dish as the Padres' preferred option against righties. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:40 pm
       
    • Mets release Tomás Nido
      Mets released C Tomás Nido.

      Advice: Nido was designated for assignment last week and went through waivers unclaimed, so the Mets officially released him, He’s now free to sign for another team, and while a few clubs like the Rockies and Phillies have recently suffered injuries at catcher, it’s unclear if there will be much interest in a 30-year-old who is a career .214/.251/.313 hitter at the MLB level.

    • Cut loose by Mets
      The Mets released Nido on Monday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: Nido cleared waivers after being designated for assignment last week and is now free to sign with another organization. The veteran catcher has a career .564 OPS over parts of eight major-league seasons but is viewed as a strong defender, so he could draw interest as a backup catcher elsewhere.

    • Out of lineup Monday
      Stubbs is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

      Advice: Stubbs has now made four starts to Rafael Marchan's three since J.T. Realmuto (knee) landed on the shelf after undergoing meniscus surgery. Marchan will handle the catching duties Monday, forming a battery with starting pitcher Cristopher Sanchez. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:14 pm
       
    • Pops third homer
      Torrens went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Padres.

      Advice: Facing the team he made his big-league debut with back in 2017, Torrens took Jeremiah Estrada deep in the eighth inning. The 28-year-old catcher has started his Mets tenure off with a bang, batting .318 (7-for-22) in his first eight games for the club with three homers, but he remains firmly in the backup role behind Francisco Alvarez.
