Maldonado isn't starting Tuesday against the Brewers.

Maldonado went 2-for-3 with a home run and two runs scored against his former club Monday, earning himself a day off. Yainer Diaz will take over behind the plate Tuesday and bat seventh.

Perez went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-5 extra-inning loss to the Tigers.

Perez's blast tied the game at 3-3 in the first inning, though the scoring simmered down after that. While the catcher has gone yard twice in the last three games, he's hitting just .172 (5-for-29) over his last seven contests. He's still been one of the Royals' most productive hitters with 11 homers, 27 RBI, 24 runs scored, 11 doubles and a .279/.319/.535 slash line through 44 games this season.

Maldonado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored Monday against the Brewers.

Maldonado took Corbin Burnes deep in the second inning to tally his third homer of the season. While he's not known for his bat, he does have at least one hit in 12 of his last 15 games, a span in which he's maintained a .319 average with five RBI and six runs scored. Maldonado's track record suggests that level of success at the plate will not continue, though he should continue to be a regular in the lineup thanks to his strong defense.

Garver (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Texas manager Bruce Bochy said Garver will serve as the designated hitter the first two games, then the plan is to have him catch the third game. The planned length of Garver's rehab assignment isn't yet known.

Raleigh went 1-for-5 with one RBI and a run scored in Monday's 11-2 win over the Athletics.

Raleigh missed both of the Mariners' games over the weekend while dealing with neck spasms. Even with the blowout, he caught all nine innings, so he should be good to go in his usual role. The power-hitting catcher has hit safely in six of his last seven games and is slashing .232/.321/.449 with seven home runs, 23 RBI, 24 runs scored, seven doubles and a triple through 156 plate appearances this season.

Raleigh (neck) is back in the Mariners' lineup for Monday's game against the Athletics, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Raleigh missed a couple games with neck spasms but is feeling well enough to give it a go in this one. He will catch Luis Castillo and bat sixth.

Naylor was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Monday, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.

Naylor will head back to Columbus after he went 0-for-2 during Sunday's doubleheader with the Mets. The 23-year-old will certainly earn another shot in the big leagues later this season as he's batting .257 with nine homers, 32 RBI and 29 runs over 148 at-bats in 41 games with Columbus this year.

Vazquez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Angels, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Vazquez is 6-for-17 in his past four games but has just a .433 OPS in May, and he'll take a seat for Sunday's series finale in Anaheim. Ryan Jeffers will work behind the plate and bat ninth.

Thaiss is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins, Sarah Valenzuela of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Thaiss will take a seat for the second time in three games with Chad Wallach starting at catcher and hitting eighth against Minnesota on Sunday.

Wong is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's finale against the Padres.

Wong will grab a seat on the bench after going 1-for-4 in each of the first two games against San Diego. Reese McGuire will handle backstop duties while hitting ninth.
