Stassi is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

After starting behind the plate in three of the Angels' last four games, Stassi will get a rest day while Kurt Suzuki takes over catching duties. Stassi closed out May with a .256/.333/.419 slash line to go with two home runs, seven runs and five RBI, but he was limited to just 12 games on the month due to a stint on the COVID-19-related injured list.

Bart isn't starting Wednesday against the Phillies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Bart went 0-for-4 with a run, a walk and three strikeouts in Tuesday's win over Philadelphia, and he'll be out of the lineup for the fourth time in the last six games. Curt Casali is starting behind the plate and batting sixth.

Heim isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Heim started in the last three games but went just 1-for-12 with a solo home run and four strikeouts. Sam Huff will start behind the plate and bat sixth.

McGuire will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

He'll be rewarded with his third start in a row after going 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles, a run and an RBI in Tuesday's 6-5 win. Yasmani Grandal is in a 1-for-24 slump at the plate over his last six games and will take a seat Wednesday, but he still looks to be entrenched as Chicago's No. 1 catcher.

Grandal is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Even though Grandal served as the White Sox's designated hitter the past two games rather than starting behind the plate, he'll still receive a maintenance day Wednesday. Grandal's move to the bench may also have something to do with his ongoing slump at the plate; over his last six games, he's gone 1-for-24 with 11 strikeouts and four walks.

Rutschman is not starting in Wednesday's matchup against the Mariners, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Rutschman will take a seat after starting four games in a row, going 2-for-14 with a double and a run in those contests. Robinson Chirinos will take over behind the plate and bat eighth in Wednesday's matchup.

Trevino is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Angels.

Trevino will head to the bench after going 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win. Kyle Higashioka will draw the start at catcher and bat eighth Wednesday.

D'Arnaud isn't starting Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

D'Arnaud started in the last three games and went 3-for-13 with three strikeouts. William Contreras will start behind the dish and bat fifth.

Stallings is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Rockies, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Nick Fortes will be behind the plate for Game 1, catching for starting pitcher Edward Cabrera. Expect Stallings, who has gone hitless with seven strikeouts in 10 at-bats over his last three starts, to check back into the lineup for the nightcap.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with an RBI sacrifice fly, a two-run single and a run in a win over the Orioles on Tuesday.

The light-hitting backstop made plenty of noise out of the bottom of the order with his third multi-RBI effort of the season, all which have come from May 15 onward. His eventful night notwithstanding, Raleigh is still carrying an abysmal .136/.216/.333 slash line for the season, although five of his nine hits have gone for extra bases.
