    • Getting afternoon off
      Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: The Rays had initially planned to give Rortvedt a day off Wednesday, but the team later updated its lineup and included the 26-year-old at catcher for a fourth consecutive contest. After delivering two hits in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win, Rortvedt will receive a breather for Thursday's day game. Alex Jackson will step in for Rortvedt behind the plate.

      Lee is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Astros.

      Advice: Lee will cede the catching duties to Martin Maldonado for Thursday's day game after starting behind the plate in Wednesday night's 4-1 loss while going 2-for-4 with a pair of base hits. The 25-year-old backstop has gotten off to a poor start to June, slashing .185/.241/.296 through 15 games. Rotowire.com Today, 8:10 am

    • Getting afternoon off
      Naylor is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.

      Advice: Naylor had either started at catcher or designated hitter in each of the Guardians' last five contests, so he'll be getting a breather Thursday while Cleveland wraps up its series with Seattle with a day game after a night game. David Fry will step in behind the plate while Naylor rests. Rotowire.com Today, 7:46 am

    • Dealt to Miami
      The Cubs traded Sanchez to the Marlins on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.

      Advice: Sanchez has spent the entire season with Triple-A Iowa, slashing .240/.338/.388 with 21 RBI across 148 plate appearances. Given the awful seasons Nick Fortes and Christian Bethancourt have both had in the majors, it's possible Sanchez gets his first look in the big leagues since 2021 if he continues at his current pace.

    • Exits with leg injury
      Caratini was removed from Wednesday's game against the White Sox due to left leg discomfort, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

      Advice: Caratini made an awkward slide into home plate during the third inning, and he was replaced behind the dish once the Astros took the field in the bottom of the frame. The severity of the backstop's injury remains unknown, but it's possible he sits out a game or two in order to recover. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:04 pm
       
    • Victor Caratini exits with left leg discomfort
      Victor Caratini was removed from Wednesday night’s battle against the White Sox due to left leg discomfort.

      Advice: Caratini suffered the injury making a terrible slide while running the bases. It sounds like he was fortunate to have avoided any type of significant injury and should be considered day-to-day. Expect Yainer Diaz to get the call behind the dish for Thursday’s series finale against the White Sox though. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:59 pm
       
    • Added to lineup
      Rortvedt will start at catcher and bat eighth Wednesday against the Twins, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Rortvedt was originally slated to receive a day off Wednesday versus Joe Ryan and the Twins, but he will instead replace Alex Jackson behind the dish as a late addition to Tampa Bay's lineup. Rortvedt has slashed .222/.300/.370 with a homer and five RBI across 30 plate appearances since the start of June. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:00 pm
       
    • Getting day off
      Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Rortvedt typically sits against left-handed pitchers, but he'll head to the bench Wednesday against righty Joe Ryan, affording Alex Jackson a turn behind the dish. Rortvedt looks to be receiving some routine maintenance after he had started at catcher in each of the Rays' last three games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:53 pm
       
    • Giving way to Haniger on Wednesday
      Garver is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: Garver and Mitch Haniger seem to have settled into a timeshare at the designated hitter spot of late, and it'll be the latter's turn to start Wednesday after Garver was included in the lineup for Tuesday's 8-5 win. The Mariners should have room for both players in the starting nine versus left-handed pitching, but neither of the two appears to be locked into a full-time role versus righties at the moment.
