Kelly started at designated hitter and went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-2 win over the Angels.

Kelly, who entered the game hitless in his previous 14 at-bats, snapped that run with a second-inning single. He then launched his second home run as a member of the Rangers in the fourth inning, extending the team's early lead to 4-0. Since being acquired from the Tigers at the trade deadline, Kelly has stolen at-bats from starter Jonah Heim, who has a .543 OPS since the beginning of August.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-0 win over the Athletics.

Raleigh has been consistent lately, going 12-for-40 (.300) over his last nine games. The catcher leads all major-league backstops with 32 homers this year, four ahead of the Athletics' Shea Langeliers. Raleigh has added a .218/.312/.426 slash line, 97 RBI, 70 runs scored and six stolen bases over 151 contests. While he's unlikely to hit for average over long spans, Raleigh is among the steadiest sources of power at the catcher position.

O'Hoppe isn't in the Angels' lineup for Friday's game against Texas, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

O'Hoppe will get a day to rest Friday after going 2-for-11 with two walks and three strikeouts during the Angels' last series against the White Sox. Matt Thaiss will catch instead for Reid Detmers and bat fifth.

Langeliers is absent from Friday's lineup against Seattle.

Since Sept. 1, Langeliers has slashed .227/.286/.453 with five home runs and 13 RBI across 84 plate appearances. Kyle McCann will start behind home plate and bat eighth.

Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Boston.

After making four straight starts behind the dish, Rortvedt will yield to Logan Driscoll on Friday for the second time in three games. Rortvedt hasn't logged multiple hits in a game since Aug. 8.

Wells is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Pirates.

Wells is getting a breather after starting each of the previous four games. Jose Trevino is catching and batting eighth for the Yankees in the series opener.

Heim is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest in Oakland.

Heim reached base three times and homered in the first two games of the series, but he'll get a breather for the finale. Carson Kelly will do the catching and bat eighth for the Rangers.

Lee is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.

Lee and Chuckie Robinson have alternated starts at catcher over the team's last 14 contests. It will be Robinson behind the plate as the White Sox attempt to complete a sweep.

Lee went 2-for-2 with a two-run home run and two walks in Wednesday's 4-3 win against the Angels.

Lee opened the scoring in the contest with a two-run blast off Jose Suarez in the second inning. Discarding Tuesday's contest during which Lee played only as a late defensive replacement and didn't log a plate appearance, it was the second straight game with a long ball for the backstop. Prior to that, Lee had undergone a stretch of 27 contests without a home run.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

He will take a seat while he and Christian Vazquez continue to alternate starts behind the plate. Jeffers has gone hitless in 12 at-bats over his last four games, bringing his slash line down to .224/.300/.430 for the season.
