Sanchez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Sanchez had started in each of the Marlins' previous three matchups with right-handed starters, but he'll cede catching duties to Nick Fortes in the series finale while the Giants send right-hander Logan Webb to the hill. Sanchez and Fortes will likely continue to operate in a timeshare down the stretch, and the Marlins' catching picture could become even murkier with Miami using one of its two September call-ups on a third backstop in Jhonny Pereda.

The Marlins recalled Pereda from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

Pereda will provide the Marlins with a third catcher behind Nick Fortes and Ali Sanchez for the final month of the season. Over his 199 plate appearances with Jacksonville in 2024, Pereda has slashed .302/.407/.444 with five home runs.

Torrens will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the White Sox.

With top backstop Francisco Alvarez receiving a routine maintenance day, Torrens will step in behind the dish. Since being acquired from the Yankees on May 31, Torrens has appeared in 35 games (28 starts) for the Mets, logging a .250/.311/.406 slash line with three home runs, 15 RBI and 13 runs.

Alvarez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Alvarez will get a breather for the day game after starting at catcher in both of the Mets' previous two contests. Luis Torrens will step in behind the dish in the series finale.

The Padres selected Diaz's contract from Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

The 33-year-old joined the Padres on a minor-league contract Aug. 26 and will join the big club Sunday as MLB rosters expand to 28 players. Diaz may not receive consistent playing time, and he should serve as the backup to Luis Campusano on Sunday as Kyle Higashioka manages flu-like symptoms.

Grandal is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

Grandal will hit the bench for a second straight day as the Pirates give youngster Henry Davis another turn behind the dish. The two will likely be deployed in a fairly even timeshare behind the plate during the final month of the season.

Higashioka (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Higashioka was scratched from the lineup Saturday due to flu-like symptoms, and he'll sit Sunday for a second straight game. Luis Campusano will receive another start behind the plate in the series finale.

Haase remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Haase has started just once in the Brewers' last 12 games and is the clear No. 3 catcher on the roster behind All-Star William Contreras and Gary Sanchez. Until the Brewers formally clinch a spot in the postseason and their playoff seeding is locked in, Haase is unlikely to receive steady at-bats.

The Padres are expected to call up Diaz from Triple-A El Paso on Sunday, Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

After being released by the Rockies on Aug. 16, Diaz signed a minor-league contract with the Padres 10 days later. He's gone 3-for-12 with three runs scored, one home run and six RBI across his three outings with El Paso, and he will join the Padres active roster when it expands to 28 players Sunday. Diaz will provide a third option at catcher behind Kyle Higashioka (illness) and Luis Campusano.

Murphy isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

Murphy will give way behind the plate to Travis d'Arnaud after going 1-for-2 with a home run, two RBI and two walks during Friday's win.
