  • Patrick Bailey returns to Giants lineup

  • Moving to bench with Bailey back
    Casali is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Casali had started behind the plate in each of the previous three games, but he'll likely see his opportunities dwindle after Patrick Bailey (concussion) was reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday. The journeyman backstop has fared well through the first four starts of his second stint with the Giants, going 4-for-16 with four walks, three runs and two RBI.

  • Heads to bench Wednesday
    Trevino is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: After starting three straight games -- all against right-handed pitching -- from Saturday through Monday, Trevino now finds himself on the bench against a righty (Bryce Miller) for the second contest in a row. Trevino still holds a sizable edge over fellow catcher Austin Wells in OPS for the season (.776 to .620), but manager Aaron Boone doesn't appear ready to move Wells into a pure backup role just yet.

  • Resting Wednesday
    Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Jansen will get a breather for the series finale after he was behind the plate both of the previous two days. Alejandro Kirk will draw the start at catcher Wednesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:06 pm
     
  • Notches first steal Tuesday
    Langeliers went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in a win over the Rockies on Tuesday.

    Advice: The slugging backstop got it done a bit differently Tuesday, with Langeliers showing some solid plate discipline while recording his second multi-walk effort of the season, both which have come within the last week. Langeliers' steal was also his first of the campaign, and with the pair of free passes, he's now reached safely in six consecutive games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:56 am
     
  • Not in Wednesday's lineup
    Grandal (groin) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Giants.

    Advice: Grandal was removed late in Tuesday's 7-6 win with left groin soreness. He has avoided the injured list for the time being, though the Pirates have added catcher Grant Koch to their taxi squad as protection in case the team needs to move another backstop onto the 26-man active roster. Joey Bart will handle the catching duties Wednesday in Grandal's stead. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:02 am
     
  • Resting for Wednesday's contest
    Herrera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Herrera caught three innings earlier in the day after the Cardinals resumed Tuesday's suspended game in the bottom of the sixth and emerged with a 3-1 victory, so he'll just be getting some rest in Wednesday's regularly scheduled game. Pedro Pages will get the starting nod behind the dish. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:24 am
     
  • Getting breather Wednesday
    Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: He'll be getting a breather for the series finale after starting behind the dish Monday and Tuesday while going 3-for-8 with a pair of doubles, two runs and an RBI. Victor Caratini will handle the catching duties Wednesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:38 am
