The Rangers recalled Huff from Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday.

Huff will return to the major-league roster, giving the Rangers some extra insurance at catcher while top backstop Jonah Heim (personal) is away from the team on paternity leave. Andrew Knizner is likely to serve as the Rangers' primary catcher while Heim is out.

Texas placed Heim on the paternity list Saturday.

Heim will be away from the team for up to three days as he awaits the birth of his third child. In the meantime, fellow catcher Sam Huff was called up from Triple-A Round Rock to replace Heim on the major-league roster.

Trevino is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Red Sox.

Trevino will get a day off after he went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-1 win. Austin Wells will take over at catcher and bat eighth against Boston.

Langeliers is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Twins.

Langeliers will get a breather after he went 4-for-13 with a grand slam and five RBI while starting the last three contests. Kyle McCann will take over behind the plate and bat eighth against Minnesota.

Langeliers went 1-for-5 with a grand slam in an extra-inning loss to the Twins on Friday.

Langeliers got the Athletics' night started on the right foot with his 408-foot shot to left center in the first inning that cleared the bases and established an early 4-0 lead. The backstop's big homer was his first since May 30, and it marked his fourth time hitting safely in the last five games. Langeliers pushed his OPS back up to .708 as well, but he's still carrying a paltry .204 average and .263 on-base percentage.

Trevino went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in an 8-1 win against Boston on Friday.

Trevino homered in his final at-bat of the contest, taking Red Sox reliever Chase Anderson deep to left field. The long ball was the catcher's second in his past two starts and his seventh overall this season, putting him well on pace to surpass the career-best mark of 11 that he established in 2022. Austin Wells entered the campaign as the slight favorite for primary catching duties with New York, but Trevino has seized that role with a strong season at the plate, as he's complemented his homer total with 18 runs, 24 RBI and a .271/.319/.434 slash line through 142 plate appearances.

Perez was pulled from Friday's game against the Dodgers due to right knee discomfort.

Perez hit a three-run homer in the fourth inning to give Kansas City a 3-0 lead, but his knee caused him to come out of the game during the eighth. It's unclear how severe the backstop's injury is, but the Royals should know more before Saturday's contest. If he does have to miss any amount of time, Freddy Fermin would be the next man up as Kansas City's main catcher.

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

Rortvedt will take a seat Friday with lefty Chris Sale on the mound for Atlanta. Alex Jackson will bat ninth and catch for Zack Littell.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Oakland.

Jeffers has yet to make consecutive starts behind the plate this season, and his playing time has slipped lately, as he hasn't made a start at designated hitter since June 1. It's been a rough month so far for the 27-year-old, who has gone 3-for-30 through nine contests. Christian Vazquez will step in behind the plate Friday to catch for Simeon Woods Richardson.

Diaz (finger) is batting fifth and is the designated hitter for Friday's game against the Tigers.

Diaz missed three straight games with a right index finger injury, but he'll be back in action Friday. Considering his injury impacts his throwing and accuracy, Diaz could require a few more games at DH before working behind the dish. The 25-year-old had a six-game hit streak prior to being injured with four homers during that stretch.
