Quero is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

Quero will get some rest after he started at either catcher or designated hitter in five of Chicago's previous six contests. Korey Lee will step in behind the plate for the series opener versus Detroit.

Teel has been working out at first base recently at Triple-A Charlotte, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Teel has yet to play a position other than catcher in pro ball, and it's unlikely he'll be moved off that position on a full-time basis anytime soon. However, with Edgar Quero also vying for reps behind the plate, it makes sense for Teel to get some reps at another position. Teel is slashing .289/.394/.491 with eight home runs and seven stolen bases over 48 games with Charlotte in 2025.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

Raleigh went on a tear to end May and has carried some momentum into June. Since May 16 (16 games), Raleigh has launched 10 home runs and driven in 17 runs while going 18-for-59 (.305) at the plate. He's gone yard in three consecutive games and has the lead for most home runs in baseball with 23. In 253 plate appearances, Raleigh boasts a 1.016 OPS.

The Mariners outrighted Hunt to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

After being designated for assignment Thursday, Hunt went unclaimed off waivers and will stick around in the Mariners organization as catching depth at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old backstop has slashed .231/.271/.407 with two home runs over 96 plate appearances in the Pacific Coast League this season.

The Rangers designated Barnhart for assignment Sunday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 34-year-old was added to the big-league roster in late April and appeared in just eight games during his time in the majors, going 3-for-13 with a walk in 15 plate appearances. Barnhart will have the option to elect free agency if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Jansen will get a breather after starting behind the plate in the first two games of the series. Matt Thaiss will handle catching duties Sunday for the Rays.

Dingler is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Dingler will receive Sunday off after going 3-for-5 with two walks, a home run and three RBI in the first two games of the series. Jake Rogers will take over behind the plate and bat eighth.

Langeliers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Langeliers started the previous five games and will get Sunday off after going 3-for-19 with a double and a solo homer during that stretch. Willie MacIver will step in behind the plate to catch lefty JP Sears for the series finale in Toronto.

Rutschman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Rutschman appears to be getting some routine rest in an afternoon game after he started each of Baltimore's last three contests. Maverick Handley will get the nod behind the dish.

Higashioka is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Jonah Heim is back behind the plate Sunday, but he's gone 2-for-23 with no walks and 10 strikeouts over his last eight games and seems to be losing his grip on the Rangers' No. 1 backstop job. Higashioka had started the previous four games -- three at catcher, one at designated hitter -- and went 3-for-11 during that stretch to bring his batting average up to .233 on the season. Though he'll be out of the lineup for the series finale, Higashioka may have at least moved into a timeshare with Heim at catcher.
