Higashioka is not in the lineup for Wednesday's tilt in Houston.

Higashioka started in Tuesday's 6-5 loss, but he'll be on the bench Wednesday for the fourth time in the last six contests. Jonah Heim will start at catcher Wednesday and looks to have edged ahead of Higashioka in the pecking order at the position.

Feduccia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Feduccia is on the bench for the third time in four games and for the second time in three matchups versus a right-handed starting pitcher (Kevin Gausman). Nick Fortes appears to have at least moved into a timeshare with Feduccia, if he hasn't already overtaken him as the Rays' preferred option behind the plate.

Teel is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

Teel will be getting a routine breather for the matinee contest, paving the way for Edgar Quero to start at catcher. The White Sox had included Teel in each of their last three lineups, with the rookie going 3-for-13 with a home run and two RBI over that stretch.

Basallo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

With the Orioles closing out their series in Chicago with a day game after a night game and with a lefty (Martin Perez) on the hill for the White Sox, the left-handed-hitting Basallo will get a breather. Alex Jackson will step in behind the plate in place of Basallo, who is batting .186 with two home runs, seven RBI and five runs through 12 games in September.

Raleigh went 3-for-5 with a double, two homers, three RBI and an additional run scored in Tuesday's victory over the Royals.

Raleigh spearheaded Tuesday's offensive surge, launching his 55th and 56th homers of the season. The first, a solo shot in the third inning, moved him past Mickey Mantle for the most home runs in a single season by a switch hitter, while the second, a two-run blast in the fourth, tied Ken Griffey Jr. for the Mariners' single-season record. The catcher is heating up at the right time, carrying a 1.124 OPS with three doubles, six homers and 11 RBI across 14 September games as Seattle pushes for the playoffs.

Teel went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's loss to Baltimore.

Teel got the scoring started with a two-run shot in the first inning. It was his eighth long ball of the year and fourth over his last 12 games. The rookie catcher has gone 29-for-88 (.330) with nine extra-base hits over his last 24 games. Teel has produced an impressive .281/.377/.433 slash line through his first 69 career games.

Rutschman (oblique) will start his rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Rutschman has been working through a mild right oblique strain since mid-August. He participated in batting practice over the weekend, and the 27-year-old catcher has progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment. Per Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun, Rutschman is expected to be with Norfolk for about a week before being activated from the 10-day IL.

Higashioka is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

Higashioka will get a break for the series opener in Houston after he caught eight innings and went 1-for-4 at the dish in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Mets. Jonah Heim will step in for Higashioka behind the dish Monday.

Jeffers hasn't been fully cleared from concussion protocol but is going through most baseball activities, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Those activities include batting practice, which Jeffers took Monday. Jeffers won't be allowed to return from the 7-day injured list until he's fully cleared, but it seems that could happen soon. With Christian Vazquez (shoulder) also out, the Twins have been using Jhonny Pereda and Mickey Gasper at catcher.

The Angels designated Wallach for assignment Monday.

Wallach provided catching depth over the weekend while Logan O'Hoppe (concussion) and Travis d'Arnaud (concussion) were sidelined, but with O'Hoppe cleared to return, Wallach is no longer needed. He caught two innings during his brief time with the big club but didn't receive a plate appearance.
