Sanchez is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Orioles, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Sanchez will take a seat for the second half of Wednesday's twin bill after catching all nine innings and going 2-for-3 with a walk and a homer in Game 1. Austin Romine is starting behind the dish in his place.

Jansen is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Giants.

Jansen will take a seat on the bench for Wednesday's series finale after starting the past two games behind the dish, going 0-for-6 with a walk and three strikeouts during that stretch. Luke Maile is starting at catcher and hitting eighth in this one.

The Twins placed Garver (ankle) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

The transaction doesn't come as a major surprise after Garver exited in the eighth inning of Tuesday's win with a high left ankle sprain. The Twins haven't released a timetable for Garver's return, but for what it's worth, manager Rocco Baldelli said the backstop's MRI results were "pretty positive," according to Dan Hayes of The Athletic. Jason Castro and Willians Astudillo will share catching duties for the Twins while Garver is out for at least the next week and a half.

Garver (ankle) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.

Garver's absence is entirely unsurprising after he exited Tuesday's contest with a high left ankle sprain, which he sustained in a home-plate collision. The Twins have thus far held off on moving Garver to the injured list, but that could become a more realistic outcome if he fails to demonstrate much meaningful progress heading into the weekend. Jason Castro will step in to handle catching duties in the series finale.

Garver was removed from Tuesday's win over the Angels after sustaining a left high ankle sprain, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Garver suffered the injury on a collision at home plate when Shohei Ohtani slid into his left ankle as he applied the tag for the out. The Twins have yet to offer a recovery timetable, but the 28-year-old seems likely to be sidelined at least a few days. Jason Castro and Willians Astudillo can both step in behind the plate for the Twins in his absence.

Narvaez isn't in Tuesday's starting lineup against the Athletics, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.

Narvaez will get the night off after slugging his seventh home run of the season Monday in the series opener. Tom Murphy replaces him behind the dish and is set to bat eighth.

Perez went 2-for-3 with a solo homer in Cleveland's 9-0 win Tuesday against the White Sox.

Perez provided the Indians' first run with a long homer to center in the third inning. The 30-year-old has now homered in two straight games and he has raised his slash line to .235/.320/.435.

Vazquez isn't in Tuesday's lineup against the Rockies, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Vazquez has registered three multi-hit performances over his last four contests, but he'll catch a breather in the series opener. Sandy Leon will start behind the dish and bat ninth.

Rogers was promoted to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Tom Reisenweber of the Erie Times-News reports.

Rogers was slashing .309/.439/.556 with five homers and 20 RBI in 26 contests prior to joining the Mud Hens. After hitting just .219 over 99 games with Double-A Erie a season ago, he appears to have found his stroke at the plate.

Collins (concussion) is expected to return in around five days, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Collins has been sidelined with a concussion for about a week now, but is expected to enter the return to play protocol Tuesday, which usually takes five or so days to complete. Prior to landing on the minor-league IL, Collins hit .256/.370/.581 with seven homers in 24 games for Triple-A Charlotte.
