Moreno (hand) is starting behind the plate and batting eighth Tuesday against the Mariners.

Moreno sat out the previous three games after being struck in the right hand by a wild pitch Friday, but he's ready to rejoin the lineup Tuesday. The 25-year-old has been on a tear at the plate in his past 15 games, as he has a .358/.393/.660 slash line with five doubles, a triple, three homers, eight RBI and 11 runs during that span.

McGuire is starting at catcher and batting ninth in Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

With regular starter Carson Kelly mired in a 2-for-30 slump, McGuire will get a chance to start behind the plate Tuesday and face Philadelphia righty Mick Abel. McGuire is unlikely to unseat the struggling Kelly entirely, though manager Craig Counsell may look to lighten Kelly's load a bit more in an effort to get his bat hot again. Miguel Amaya (oblique) is also eyeing an early-July return from the injured list and could jump into the No. 1 catcher role when he's healthy.

Baldwin is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Brewers.

Baldwin went 0-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout in Monday's series opener and will take a seat for Tuesday's contest. Sean Murphy will instead start behind the plate, and it will be the 13th straight game in which the pair has alternated starts at catcher.

Hicks is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

Hicks started the previous four games but will head to the bench Tuesday after going 3-for-14 with a double, two RBI and a run during that stretch. Nick Fortes will step in behind the plate while Agustin Ramirez serves as the designated hitter versus Pittsburgh righty Mitch Keller.

Kelly is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia.

Kelly batted seventh Monday -- which is the lowest he's hit since April -- and is out of the lineup altogether Tuesday as he battles through a 2-for-30 slump. Reese McGuire is catching and batting ninth for the Cubs.

The Mets placed Alvarez on the paternity list Tuesday.

The 23-year-old will be away from the team for a few days in order to spend some time with his growing family. Alvarez should be back with the Mets by Friday's series opener versus the Rays. In the meantime, Luis Torrens should serve as New York's primary backstop, while Hayden Senger was promoted Tuesday to fill the backup job.

The Mets recalled Senger from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

He's taking the roster spot of Francisco Alvarez, who was placed on the paternity list. Senger will operate as the backup catcher behind Luis Torrens while Alvarez is away.

Smith went 1-for-4 with a two-run home and an additional RBI in Monday's 8-7 extra-inning win over the Padres.

Smith did his damage early, supplying a sacrifice fly in the first inning before his homer in the third. The catcher opened June in an 0-for-9 skid, but he's since gone 5-for-17 with three extra-base hits over his last four contests. For the season, he's maintained a .320/.423/.503 slash line with six homers, 36 RBI, 29 runs scored and two stolen bases over 53 games.

Moreno (hand) is not in the Diamondbacks' starting lineup against the Mariners on Monday.

It's the third straight game that Moreno has been absent from the lineup after being struck on the right hand by a wild pitch in Friday's contest against the Reds. The good news for Moreno is that X-rays on his hand came back negative, but he'll begin Monday's game on the bench while Jose Herrera serves behind home plate and bats ninth.

Maldonado is not in the Padres' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Monday.

Maldonado and Elias Diaz have been splitting backstop duties this season, but the former appears to be the de facto No. 1 option at the moment. Maldonado will be on the bench for Monday's series opener, however, while Diaz serves behind home plate and bats ninth.
