Moreno is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Moreno will get a breather as the Diamondbacks close out their season-opening series versus the Cubs with a day game. Jose Herrera will step in behind the plate in place of Moreno.

Herrera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Herrera started the first two games of the season and went 4-for-7 with a walk, two doubles, two RBI and a run, and he'll receive a well-deserved rest Sunday. Pedro Pages is stepping in behind the plate to catch for righty Andre Pallante.

Bart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Bart will get a breather after he started behind the plate in each of the first three games of the series, going 4-for-12 with two walks, two runs, one RBI and one stolen base. Endy Rodriguez will fill in for Bart, starting at catcher and batting sixth.

Realmuto (foot) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Realmuto departed Saturday's contest for precautionary reasons due to a left foot contusion, and he'll miss at least one game due to the injury. Rafael Marchan will step in behind the plate to catch for right-hander Aaron Nola on Sunday.

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

With Tyler Stephenson (oblique) opening the season on the injured list, Trevino has stepped in as the Reds' top backstop, starting the first two contests behind the dish while going 0-for-5 with a walk. He'll be rested for Sunday's matinee in favor of Austin Wynns, but Trevino should continue to see the lion's share of the starts at catcher until Stephenson is deemed ready to make his 2025 debut.

Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle

Bailey will get a breather after he was behind the plate for the first two games of the series in Cincinnati, going 1-for-7 with an RBI and a run. Sam Huff will draw his first start of the season at catcher while Bailey rests up.

Ruiz went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer in a 11-6 loss to the Phillies on Saturday.

The catcher hit his second homer in as many games after taking a changeup from Jesus Luzardo the other way 414 feet to left-center field. The blast gave Washington an early 2-0 lead that it would ultimately not be able to hold. Ruiz hit 31 home runs in the previous two seasons as Washington's primary catcher, but he's showing more power early in 2025.

Bart went 3-for-6 with an RBI and a stolen base Saturday against the Marlins.

Bart has started all three of Pittsburgh's games behind the plate and hit cleanup on each occasion. He doesn't have much fantasy production to show for it, but he's gone 4-for-12 with a pair of walks.

Smith went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a 7-3 victory versus the Tigers.

Smith homered to left field in the sixth inning for his first long ball of the campaign. The veteran catcher is off to a strong start to the season, slashing .417/.588/.750 through five contests. He's knocked in three runs and posted a 5:3 BB:K during that stretch.
