Wong is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Wong started the previous three games but will sit Tuesday after a team day off Monday, affording him two straight days of rest. Reese McGuire is working behind the plate and batting eighth.

Lee is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins.

After making back-to-back starts behind the dish, Lee will be spelled by Martin Maldonado for the second game of the series. In his last five games, Lee is 4-for-14 (.286) with a solo home run and a stolen base.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Kansas City.

Alejandro Kirk will start behind the dish Tuesday as the pair continue to split catching work nearly 50/50. Jansen went 1-for-3 with a homer during Monday's series opener.

Langeliers went 1-for-2 with an RBI sacrifice fly, a double and a walk in a win over the Pirates on Monday.

The struggling backstop experienced a rare taste of offensive success in Oakland's fourth win in the last five games. Langeliers is still sitting on a forgettable .172 average and .227 on-base percentage across 97 plate appearances. However, eight of his 15 hits have gone for extra bases and he has an acceptable 21.6 percent strikeout rate, offering some support for the notion that he'll be due for a turnaround once his atypically low .143 BABIP sees a boost.

Kelly (ribs) is starting behind the plate and batting eighth in Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader versus St. Louis.

Kelly has been dealing with soreness in his left ribcage recently but will start Game 1 of Tuesday's twin bill, which is his first start since April 23. Jake Rogers should be behind the plate in the nightcap.

Jansen went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Monday's 6-5 win over the Royals.

Jansen tagged Jonathan Bowlan for a solo homer in the third inning, marking the catcher's second home run in the last three games. After missing the first few weeks of the season with an injury, Jansen is slashing .269/.387/.615 with a 12.9 percent strikeout rate in 31 plate appearances.

Fermin went 2-for-3 with a solo home run during Monday's 6-5 loss to the Blue Jays.

Fermin started behind the dish due to Salvador Perez getting the day off. Fermin notched his second multi-hit game of the campaign and his eighth-inning solo home run off Erik Swanson marked Fermin's 10th career long ball. In 47 plate appearances, Fermin is slashing .227/.277/.318 and is striking out at a 10.6 percent clip.

Trevino is not in the starting lineup for Monday's matchup against Baltimore.

Trevino had a big game in New York's 15-5 rout of the Brewers on Sunday, going 2-for-4 with a run and three RBI. However, he's ceding the start behind the plate to Austin Wells on Monday. Trevino has put up far better offensive numbers this season, but Wells continues to get slightly more playing time -- over New York's past eight games, Wells has started behind the plate on five occasions while Trevino has gotten three starts.

Perez was scratched from Monday's lineup versus the Blue Jays due to back tightness, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Perez had been slated to catch and bat cleanup, but now Freddy Fermin will be behind the plate and Nelson Velazquez will move up to the cleanup spot. Consider Perez day-to-day.

The Yankees recalled Narvaez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.

Narvaez will join the Yankees and provide the team with a third catcher while outfielder Alex Verdugo (personal) is on the paternity list. He will likely be returned to the minors later this week when Verdugo is ready to rejoin the 26-man active roster.
