Trevino is absent from the lineup Wednesday versus the Mariners.

Kyle Higashioka will start behind the plate and bat eighth. Neither catcher has offered significant offensive production for the Yankees here in 2023.

Minnesota signed Kolozsvary to a minor-league contract Wednesday, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.

Kolozsvary declined his outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk last week, and the 27-year-old backstop will instead head to Triple-A St. Paul to provide organizational depth behind the plate for Minnesota. The Twins would need to add him to the 40-man roster if they deem him worthy of a promotion.

Murphy (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup versus the Phillies on Wednesday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Murphy will miss at least one more game after he injured his right hamstring Saturday against the Rockies. Travis d'Arnaud will be the starting backstop for Atlanta on Wednesday and hit sixth.

Alvarez is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Astros.

Alvarez will take a seat after he went 2-for-6 with a double, two runs, a walk and three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Omar Narvaez will draw the start at catcher and bat ninth in the series finale with Houston.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

After catching both of the first two games of the series with Kansas City, Rogers will get a breather with Wednesday's finale beginning at 1:10 p.m. ET. Eric Haase will step in behind the plate to form a battery with starting pitcher Matthew Boyd.

Fortes is out of the lineup Wednesday against Toronto.

Fortes will head to the bench after he went 2-for-3 with a double in Tuesday's 2-0 loss. Jacob Stallings will take over at catcher and bat eighth in the series finale with the Blue Jays.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Jansen was behind the plate for both of the first two games of the series in Miami, so he'll sit Wednesday with the finale beginning at 12:10 p.m. ET. Tyler Heineman will replace Jansen as the Blue Jays' starting catcher.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

The Rockies are wrapping up their series in Cincinnati with a day game after a night game, so Diaz appears to be sitting out Wednesday merely for maintenance purposes. Austin Wynns will check in behind the dish, catching for starting pitcher Connor Seabold.

Contreras went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Nationals.

Contreras tallied RBI in the fifth and seventh innings while notching his first three-hit game of the season and his first game with multiple extra-base hits since May 18. The 31-year-old now has six hits in his last four games but is still trying to turn things around at the plate. For the year he's now slashing .210/.303/.370 with eight homers, 31 RBI, 28 runs and a 27:62 BB:K over 271 plate appearances.

Sanchez is not in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Giants, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Sanchez will take a seat after he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Monday's extra-inning loss. Austin Nola will draw the start at catcher and bat ninth against San Francisco.
