  • Moving to bench Wednesday
    Naylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Naylor will rest Wednesday after he was behind the plate for the first two games of the series, going 1-for-8 with a double, two RBI and a run scored between those contests. He'll cede catching duties to Austin Hedges in the series finale. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
     
  • Heads to bench Wednesday
    Wells is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: With a .954 OPS in 11 games dating back to April 24, Wells is beginning to earn himself a larger portion of the work behind the plate, but he'll still be part of a timeshare with Jose Trevino. The Yankees will turn to Trevino to handle catching duties in Wednesday's contest, but expect Wells to return to the lineup for Thursday's series finale. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
     
  • Resting Wednesday
    Amaya is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Amaya will get a breather after he started at catcher in each of the past three games while going 1-for-9 at the dish. Yan Gomes will fill in for Amaya in Wednesday's series finale. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
     
  • Korey Lee tallies three hits, steals base in win
    Korey Lee went 3-for-3 with an RBI and also stole a base on Wednesday, lifting the White Sox to a 2-0 win over the Nationals.

    Advice: Lee provided a key insurance run for the White Sox with a sixth-inning RBI single to center field off Nationals reliever Derek Law with two outs in the frame. The 25-year-old is quietly emerging as a reliable fantasy backstop in his first extended run with Chicago, batting .309 (25-for-81) with four homers and two steals through 29 games.

  • Returns to bench
    Jackson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Boston.

    Advice: Jackson had started at catcher in five of the past six games, but he went hitless with 11 strikeouts and one walk across 14 plate appearances during that stretch. Despite his hefty workload of late, Jackson still looks to be the No. 2 option at catcher behind Ben Rortvedt, who is back in the lineup Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 1:21 pm
     
  • Adley Rutschman hits walkoff homer to down Jays
    Adley Rutschman hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to give the Orioles a 3-2 win over the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

    Advice: It was a towering blast, but it traveled only 345 feet, and a fan interfered with the ball over the fence, though it was correctly decided that it would have been a homer anyway. Statcast said it would have left nine of the 30 ballparks. It was Rutschman’s second career walkoff homer. He has four homers in his last three games after totaling five in his first 37. His OPS has jumped from .781 to .859 as a result of those three games. Rotoworld Today, 1:14 pm
     
  • Elias Díaz (hand) remains out of Rockies’ lilneup
    Elias Díaz (hand) was held out of the Rockies’ starting lineup for Wednesday’s showdown against the Padres.

    Advice: The 33-year-old backstop was pulled from Tuesday’s contest due to left hand soreness and it sounds like it’s still bothering him on Wednesday so he’ll get another breather. Jacob Stallings will start in his place on Wednesday and will bat seventh against Michael King and the Padres. Rotoworld Today, 1:00 pm
     
  • William Contreras homers, Brewers demolish Pirates
    William Contreras went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer and four RBI on Wednesday, leading the Brewers to a decisive 10-2 victory over the Pirates.

    Advice: Contreras is rapidly evolving into one of the premier four-category contributors in the entire fantasy landscape as his latest three-hit performance, his sixth of the season, raises his batting average to an astronomical .359 mark through 43 contests. The 26-year-old backstop crushed a three-run homer off Pirates southpaw Martín Pérez in the third inning and also added an RBI triple a couple frames later as Milwaukee hit five homers in a blowout victory. He’s up to 39 runs scored and 34 homers already to go along with six homers and three steals as well. There isn’t much left to say at this point besides legitimately asking if he’s going to surpass Orioles superstar Adley Rutschman as the consensus top catcher in fantasy at some point in the future.

  • Heads back to the bench
    Stubbs is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: While J.T. Realmuto managed a sore knee, Stubbs started behind the plate in each of the past three games, going 1-for-12 with a stolen base. Realmuto is back in the lineup at catcher Wednesday, and provided he doesn't experience any setbacks with his knee, he should take on a hefty workload moving forward. Prior to Realmuto's recent absence, Stubbs had started in just six of the Phillies' first 40 games of the season. Rotowire.com Today, 12:26 pm
