Reds manager Terry Francona said Tuesday that Stephenson (oblique) could begin a rehab assignment in one week, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

Stephenson strained his left oblique back in mid-March but appears to nearly be game-ready. He will require a handful of rehab contests to knock the rust off but should be ready for his season debut before the end of April if all goes well.

Murphy went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's win over the Blue Jays.

The backstop took Easton Lucas deep in the first inning, the first of three Atlanta homers off the southpaw. Murphy is very quickly erasing memories of his rough 2024 campaign -- after homering 10 times in 72 contests last year, he's already launched four long balls in his first six games of 2025.

Goodman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Dodgers on Monday.

Goodman brought Colorado to within two runs with his two-run blast to center field in the seventh inning, but that was the final time either team crossed the plate. The third-year catcher began the season on a strong foot with a .368 average and two homers over his first five games, but he tailed off after that -- Monday's long ball snapped an eight-game homerless streak during which he went just 2-for-24 at the plate. Goodman's big power makes him an attractive fantasy target though, and he's seeing plenty of action as Colorado's primary backstop this season.

Kelly (hand) isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

Kelly underwent X-rays on his catching hand after being struck by a pitch during Sunday's matchup with the Dodgers, and while the tests came back negative, he won't draw the start behind the plate in Monday's series opener. Miguel Amaya will bat eighth in Kelly's absence.

The Rockies selected Fulford's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

Colorado opened up room for Fulford on the 26-man active roster by placing Kris Bryant (back) on the injured list. Fulford had gotten off to a strong start to the season at Albuquerque, slashing .395/.477/.868 with five home runs and 10 RBI across 44 plate appearances. The 26-year-old will provide a third catcher behind Hunter Goodman and Jacob Stallings. Fulford's arrival could allow Goodman to see more time as the Rockies' designated hitter following Bryant's placement on the IL, which would allow the more defensive-minded Stallings to see more opportunities behind the plate.

Diaz is not in the Padres' starting lineup against the Cubs on Monday.

Diaz will be on the bench Monday while Martin Maldonado serves behind home plate and bats ninth against Cubs right-hander Jameson Taillon. Diaz has gone 4-for-16 with four walks, two runs scored and two RBI over his last five starts.

Bart (back) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

Bart hasn't played since exiting Friday's 5-3 loss to the Reds due to lower-back discomfort, but he's expected to be available off the bench Monday after manager Derek Shelton said that the backstop caught a bullpen session earlier in the day, per Alex Stumpf of MLB.com. The Pirates called up Henry Davis from Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday to provide some extra insurance behind the dish while Bart has been tending to the back injury. Davis started at catcher in the previous two games, but Endy Rodriguez will form a battery with starting pitcher Paul Skenes in Monday's series opener.

Torrens went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Athletics.

Torrens opened up the scoring with an RBI base knock in the sixth and added on more with an RBI-double in the ninth. He's been productive as the Mets' top option behind the dish while Francisco Alvarez (hand) has been sidelined to begin the season, slashing .333/.375/.567 with a home run, five RBI, two runs and a 2:7 BB:K in 32 plate appearances. However, with Alvarez currently in the midst of a rehab assignment and perhaps in line to return from the IL during the upcoming week, Torrens will soon be headed to a reserve role.

Kelly (hand) underwent X-rays on his left hand, which came back negative, following Sunday's 4-2 win over the Dodgers, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Kelly left the game in the bottom of the sixth inning after being hit by a pitch on his left hand in the fifth frame. The catcher appears to have avoided any significant damage, and he can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Contreras went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

The All-Star catcher opened the game's scoring in the first inning by popping a 375-foot, two-run homer off Arizona starter Zac Gallen. After starting out slowly with a .074/.242/.074 slash line across 33 plate appearances, Contreras is currently riding a seven-game hit streak during which he's batting .370 (10-for-27) with three homers, two doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs scored.
