Jeffers was removed from Thursday's game against the White Sox due to a head injury, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Jeffers took a foul ball off his mask during the game and was ultimately removed. He will likely undergo testing for a concussion and should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

Perez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Angels.

Perez helped the Royals finish erasing the early 3-0 deficit they faced, as he went yard in the seventh inning to tie the game. The catcher has gone just 4-for-32 (.125) over his last nine games, though all four of his hits in that span have gone for extra bases. He's up to 24 homers, 78 RBI, 47 runs scored and 33 doubles while slashing .240/.284/.444 through 133 contests. Perez has remained the Royals' primary catcher even with prospect Carter Jensen getting a September call-up, as Jensen just made his first start at designated hitter in Thursday's contest. This may continue to be a trend as long as the Royals are within striking distance in the wild-card race, but don't be surprised to see Perez get more rest if they fall too far behind.

Kirk went 2-for-5 with a double and a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Reds.

The backstop clubbed one of four Toronto homers off Zack Littell in a wild 13-9 victory. Kirk has been on an XBH binge over the last few weeks, and in his last 15 games, he's slashing .333/.419/.685 with half of his hits (four doubles and five homers) going for extra bases, along with 10 runs and 17 RBI. Kirk's 12 long balls on the season leave him two away from tying the career-high 14 he launched in 2022, while his 65 RBI are already a new personal best.

Wells went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles and two total RBI in a loss to the Astros on Wednesday.

Wells notched three of New York's seven extra-base hits in the defeat, and among his knocks was a two-run homer to left field in the fourth inning. The backstop has suddenly caught fire with the bat, slashing .421/.450/1.053 with three home runs and five RBI over his past six games. Prior to that stretch, he batted a miserable .133 with a 28.4 percent strikeout rate over his previous 24 contests.

Quero went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 4-3 win over the Twins on Wednesday.

Quero left the yard for the fifth time this season, and it was his first homer since Aug. 12 versus Detroit. The switch-hitting backstop has a decent .737 OPS during his rookie year, and he's fared even better over his last 18 games. During that span, Quero is batting a torrid .351 with two big flies, two doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs scored across his last 57 at-bats.

Narvaez is not in the Red Sox's starting lineup against the Guardians on Wednesday.

Narvaez will be on the bench for Wednesday's series finale after going 2-for-4 with a double during Boston's 11-7 win over Cleveland on Tuesday. Connor Wong will start behind the dish and bat ninth.

The Astros activated Caratini (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Wednesday. He will start at first base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game versus the Yankees.

Caratini missed the minimum seven days while recovering from a concussion. He'll start at first base Wednesday as Christian Walker gets some rest.

Basallo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The Orioles are wrapping up their series in San Diego with a day game, so Basallo will receive a break after he had started at catcher or designated hitter in each of the previous four contests. Alex Jackson will step in behind the plate Wednesday, while Ryan Mountcastle serves as Baltimore's DH.

Dingler is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mets.

Dingler started each of the first two games of the series at catcher, but he'll get a breather during Wednesday's matinee. Jake Rogers will start behind the dish and hit ninth as the Tigers try to avoid the sweep.

Hedges went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox.

Hedges kicked off a six-run sixth inning with a leadoff solo home run. It's his first time leaving the yard since May 6 and just his second multi-hit game of the year, both of which have come in his last 10 games. Hedges is up to four homers and eight RBI on the year, while hitting a lowly .147 at the plate.
