• Not starting Wednesday
    Fry is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Among all players with at least 140 plate appearances, Fry leads the majors with a 1.092 OPS on the season, but he still hasn't quite seized hold of a full-time role in Cleveland. He'll be on the bench for the second time in three games while the Guardians go with Bo Naylor at catcher and Kyle Manzardo at designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm

  • Officially given release
    The Mets released Narvaez on Wednesday, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

    Advice: The Mets will eat what remains of the two-year, $15 million contract Narvaez signed prior to the 2023 season. Narvaez hit a lowly .192/.254/.259 as a Met, but he should be able to find a backup catcher job somewhere now that he can be had at the prorated veteran minimum. Rotowire.com Today, 11:32 am
  • Getting rest Wednesday
    Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Bailey will take a seat for the Wednesday afternoon game after he started behind the plate Monday and Tuesday. Curt Casali will spell Bailey at catcher in the series finale. Rotowire.com Today, 11:13 am
  • Mets release Omar Narváez.
    Mets released C Omar Narváez.

    Advice: Narváez was in the second year of a two-year, $15 million contract, so there was little doubt that he’d clear waivers after being DFA’d last week. He should eventually land a backup gig somewhere. Rotoworld Today, 11:07 am
  • Resting Wednesday
    Moreno is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: He'll be getting some routine maintenance after he caught nine innings and went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in the Diamondbacks' 8-5 win Tuesday night. Tucker Barnhart will draw the start behind the plate Wednesday while Moreno rests. Rotowire.com Today, 10:16 am
  • J.T. Realmuto out of lineup for Wednesday’s game
    J.T. Realmuto, who was pretty well beaten up in Tuesday’s game against the Brewers, is absent from Wednesday’s lineup.

    Advice: It’s also a day game after a night game, but we imagine he still would have been in there today if he hadn’t taken quite a bit of damage Tuesday, particularly since the Phillies aren’t playing the next two days as they travel to London. Garrett Stubbs is catching today. Rotoworld Today, 9:31 am
  • Day off Wednesday
    Realmuto is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Brewers.

    Advice: The Phillies and Brewers are playing a day game Wednesday after Realmuto caught all 10 innings of a 2-1 win Tuesday, so he appears to be getting some rest in the series finale. Garrett Stubbs will start behind the dish for the Phillies on Wednesday as they go for the sweep of Milwaukee. Rotowire.com Today, 9:28 am
  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Nido is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: After catching seven innings of the Mets' 6-3 win Tuesday night, Nido will get a breather Wednesday as the NL East rivals wrap up their series with a day game. Luis Torrens will check in behind the plate for Nido on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 am
  • Red Sox option Tyler Heineman to Triple-A
    Red Sox optioned C Tyler Heineman to Triple-A Worcester.

    Advice: Heineman was only with the Red Sox for a day this time around and didn’t get into the game last night. Such is the life of a third catcher. Heineman has a total of 285 major league plate appearances for five teams since debuting with the Marlins at age 28 in 2019. Rotoworld Today, 8:38 am
