Kelly is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Pittsburgh.

Kelly has been slumping at the plate recently, going 4-for-37 (.108) with three runs scored over his last 11 games. He'll get a day off Friday against Paul Skenes and the Pirates, allowing for Reese McGuire to draw a start behind the dish.

Davis is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Cubs.

Davis was behind the dish for the last two contests against the Marlins and four of the last five games, so he'll get some rest for Thursday's series opener. Brett Sullivan will catch and bat eighth for the Pirates.

Goodman is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants.

He'll take a seat for the day game after a night game, paving the way for Braxton Fulford to pick up a start behind the dish. Goodman has been wielding a hot bat thus far in June, slashing .417/.432/1.000 with four home runs, eight RBI and eight runs over nine games this month.

Knizner is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies.

Knizner will take a seat for Thursday's matinee after he had started behind the plate in each of the Giants' last three games. Logan Porter will get the nod at catcher in the series finale, but Knizner is expected to operate as the Giants' top backstop while Patrick Bailey (neck) is on the injured list. Since joining the Giants on June 4, Knizner has gone 1-for-11 with a walk over 12 plate appearances.

Torrens is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

Torrens had started behind the plate in three of the Mets' last four contests, but his opportunities are expected to take a hit moving forward with Francisco Alvarez (personal) making his return from the paternity list Thursday. Alvarez will be thrown right back into the lineup for the series finale versus Washington, starting at catcher and batting ninth.

The Mets activated Alvarez (personal) from the paternity list Thursday.

Alvarez was away from the club for two days while welcoming a new baby. He's back in the lineup for the series finale against the Nationals on Thursday, starting at catcher and batting ninth.

The Mets optioned Senger to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Senger's stay with the Mets lasted just two days, as he'll head back to Syracuse with top catcher Francisco Alvarez (personal) making his return from the paternity list. Luis Torrens started behind the plate in both of the Mets' games while Alvarez was away.

Goodman went 3-for-5 with a home run, two doubles, two runs and two RBI in a loss to the Giants on Wednesday.

Goodman accounted for three of Colorado's four extra-base hits, including a run-scoring double in the third inning and a solo homer in the ninth. The backstop extended his hitting streak to eight games, a stretch during which he's slashing .429/.444/1.029 with eight RBI and eight runs. Over that span, a remarkable 11 of Goodman's 15 hits have gone for extra-bases; he has four homers, five doubles and two triples during the hot stretch. With an .845 OPS, 11 long balls and 39 RBI on the campaign, Goodman has quickly ascended to the ranks of baseball's best offensive catchers.

The Giants placed Bailey on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a neck strain, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

After sitting out Tuesday's contest due to neck spasms, Bailey has now been diagnosed with a strain in his neck and will be forced to miss at least the next week as a result. Logan Porter was selected from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move, though Andrew Knizner is likely to serve as San Francisco's primary catcher until Bailey returns.

The Giants selected Porter's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.

With Patrick Bailey headed to the 10-day injured list due to a neck strain, Porter will join the big club and serve as the Giants' backup catcher behind Andrew Knizner. Porter signed a minor-league contract with the Giants in November and has a .669 OPS with two steals, two home runs and 13 RBI across 161 plate appearances in Triple-A this season. He last saw major-league action with the Royals in 2023, when he went 6-for-31 (.194) with one home run and three RBI in 11 regular-season games.
