Dingler went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and two total RBI in Sunday's 5-4, 10-inning win over the White Sox.

Dingler went deep for the second straight day, and he's now up to 18 long balls on the season. That's the most on the team and third in the majors among catchers, behind only Shea Langeliers with 19 home runs and Hunter Goodman with 21. Dingler has been a dynamic offensive force as the undisputed top backstop for Detroit, with Jake Rogers in a clear reserve role that carries limited fantasy value.

Caratini is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Caratini will get a breather for the series finale after he drew starts behind the dish in each of the previous three games. Alex Jackson will handle the catching duties for Minnesota on Sunday.

Feduccia is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

After drawing starts behind the plate the past three games while going 1-for-5 with a double, two walks and two runs, Feduccia will retreat to the bench for the series finale. Nick Fortes will receive the nod at catcher and bat eighth.

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

Langeliers started the previous six contests but will hit the bench Sunday after going 4-for-25 (.160 average) with a double, a homer, four RBI and three runs. Jonah Heim will step in behind the plate for the series finale versus the Halos.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Guardians, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Diaz started the first two games of the series but will hit the bench for the finale after going 2-for-7 with a double, an RBI and three strikeouts. Christian Vazquez will step in behind the plate and bat ninth Sunday.

Romo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

Romo will hit the bench for the fourth time in five games, though three of those absences have come against left-handed pitching. He and Edgar Quero appear to have settled into a quasi-platoon behind the plate, but both will likely see their opportunities shrink once Kyle Teel (knee/hamstring) makes his expected return from the 60-day injured list later this month.

The Yankees reinstated Wells (headaches) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.

Wells will make his return following a two-week stint on the shelf due to cervical headaches. He completed a three-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre earlier in the week, during which he went 2-for-12 with a pair of home runs and two walks. The Yankees optioned J.C. Escarra to Triple-A on Saturday to open up a spot on the active roster for Wells, who will reclaim his gig as the team's No. 1 catcher.

Caratini went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk, three RBI and three runs scored in Saturday's 16-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

Caratini has gone 8-for-14 with four walks, two homers and six RBI over his last four games. The catcher is making the most of his playing time in the absence of Ryan Jeffers (hand), who is unlikely to be back before the end of the month. Caratini is batting .241 on the season, adding a .700 OPS, five homers, 29 RBI, 17 runs scored and six doubles over 56 contests.

Dingler went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 4-1 win over the White Sox.

Getting the start at DH to keep his red-hot bat in the lineup, Dingler came through with an RBI single in the fifth inning to get Detroit on the board before he wrapped up the scoring with a solo shot off Trevor Richards in the seventh. Dingler has six multi-hit performances in the last 10 games, a stretch in which he's hitting a blistering .429 (18-for-42) with seven extra-base hits (three homers) along with nine RBI and 10 runs.

The Orioles placed Rutschman on the 7-day injured list Saturday after he was diagnosed with a concussion, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

An errant throw struck Rutschman in the head during Thursday's contest, and he will need some down time as a result of the injury. He will also need to eventually clear concussion protocol before returning to action. With Sam Huff already up providing depth behind the plate, the Orioles will replace Rutschman on the roster with outfielder Michael Siani, who was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk.
