    • Red Sox option Tyler Heineman to the minors
      Red Sox optioned Tyler Heineman to Triple-A Worcester.

      Advice: With Connor Wong coming off the paternity list, Tyler Heineman will go back to the minors. He will continue to act as veteran organizational depth. Rotoworld Today, 10:05 am
       
    • Red Sox activate Connor Wong from paternity list
      Red Sox activated Connor Wong from the Paternity List.

      Advice: Wong was placed on the paternity list on Monday and wound up missing two games for the Red Sox. He should be back in the starting lineup soon. Tyler Heineman was optioned back to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. Rotoworld Today, 10:03 am
       
    • Filling in for resting Lee
      Maldonado will start at catcher and bat ninth in Thursday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Top backstop Korey Lee is getting a breather for the day game after he started at catcher in each of the previous three days, so Maldonado will get a turn behind the plate. Maldonado is valued for his defense, but with an .088/.140/.132 slash line and a minus-24 wRC+, he's been the league's least-productive hitter among all players with at least 100 plate appearances this season.

    • Getting rest day
      Lee is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Lee will get a breather for Thursday's day game after he caught all three of the White Sox's games versus the Dodgers earlier this week. Martin Maldonado checks in for Lee behind the plate. Rotowire.com Today, 9:47 am

    • Heads back to Triple-A
      The Red Sox optioned Heineman to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: As expected, Heineman's stay with the Red Sox was a brief one. Boston called him up from Worcester on Monday to provide another option at catcher while Connor Wong (personal) was away from the team on paternity leave, but Heineman will head back to the minors after Wong was activated Thursday. Heineman picked up one at-bat during his latest stint in the majors. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 am
       
    • Returns from paternity list
      The Red Sox reinstated Wong (personal) from the paternity list Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Wong missed the maximum three games while on paternity leave and will rejoin the Red Sox ahead of Friday's series opener versus the Padres. Tyler Heineman was optioned to Triple-A Worcester to clear room on the active roster for Wong, who should settle back in as Boston's No. 1 catcher while Reese McGuire serves as the backup.

    • On base three times Wednesday
      McCann went 1-for-2 with two walks in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.

      Advice: McCann made one of his relatively infrequent appearances in the starting nine and once again contributed, qualifying as the only Athletics batter to reach safely on three occasions. However, he was part of an unfortunate sequence in the second inning, when he stumbled and failed to touch home plate when attempting to score and was subsequently called out due to Armando Alvarez making contact with him in an attempt to steer McCann back to the plate. That gaffe notwithstanding, the rookie backstop has now reached safely in four consecutive games dating back to June 16, and he sports a .278 average and .804 OPS across 91 plate appearances (30 games) this season.

    • Not close to return
      Manager Bud Black said Tuesday that Diaz (calf) will be out for at least another week, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Diaz has resumed baseball activities but is not sprinting at full speed and is still experiencing some soreness. The Rockies have stressed the importance of Diaz returning at full strength, so his absence could extend into the middle of July. Jacob Stallings should remain the team's primary catcher in the meantime. Rotowire.com Today, 6:45 am
       
    • Productive in backup duties
      Salazar went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Rockies.

      Advice: Salazar was recalled June 11 to serve as depth behind the plate as Houston dealt with injuries to their top two catchers. With Victor Caratini (hip) likely sidelined through the All-Star break, Salazar should get a couple starts per week for the foreseeable future. He's gone 5-for-11 with three runs scored and four RBI since being promoted. Rotowire.com Today, 6:33 am
