Amaya (oblique) will likely begin a rehab assignment after the All-Star break and is expected to need about a week's worth of games before returning to the Cubs, MLB.com reports.

Amaya has taken batting practice and completed a few bullpen catching sessions in his rehab work so far, but he's yet to see live game action since landing on the injured list with a left oblique injury on May 24. The backstop now appears to be one step closer to returning to the majors, and when he does, he'll compete with Carson Kelly for work behind the plate, though Kelly has played well this year and is likely to remain Chicago's No. 1 catcher for the time being. Amaya compiled a .280/.313/.505 slash line with four home runs and 25 RBI in 27 games before getting injured.

The Orioles outrighted Banuelos to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Banuelos was added to the Orioles' 26-man active roster for Sunday's game against the Marlins and struck out in his lone plate appearance. He's now been removed from the 40-man roster and has accepted an outright assignment to Norfolk, where he will provide catching depth.

Garver went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 8-4 win over Detroit.

The 34-year-old veteran backstop got a rare start at catcher to give All-Star Cal Raleigh a respite behind the plate, launching his fifth homer of the campaign. As long as Raleigh is healthy, Garver is likely to continue seeing sparse playing time, even as a designated hitter. Garver has struggled to find a groove, slashing just .219/.310/.344 with four doubles and 21 RBI across 171 plate appearances.

Hicks went 3-for-4 with one RBI in Sunday's 11-1 win against the Orioles.

The 26-year-old rookie started at first base and notched his second game with three or more hits this season -- the first coming at Philadelphia on April 19. Hicks, who was a Rule 5 pick this past offseason, continues to garner plenty of looks in a strong-side platoon role with the Marlins. He has been a steady source of offense for the club thanks to a .274/.367/.411 slash line with four homers, 30 RBI and 19 runs scored across 198 total plate appearances in 64 games.

Maldonado is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

After starting behind the plate in three of the Friars' previous four contests, Maldonado will get a breather for the final game before the All-Star break. Elias Diaz will step in at catcher for the Padres on Sunday.

The Orioles recalled Banuelos from Triple-A Norfolk ahead of Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Banuelos will provide Baltimore with some extra catching depth for the final game of the season's first half. He went 0-for-1 in his lone plate appearance for the Orioles when he was up with the big club for a doubleheader with the Mets on Thursday.

Langeliers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Austin Wynns will pick up the start behind the plate while Langeliers rests in the series finale. Langeliers had started in seven of the previous eight contests, going 3-for-28 (.107 average) with a 1:8 BB:K during that stretch.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Jeffers will get a routine breather after he had started four of the Twins' previous five contests. Christian Vazquez will handle catching duties for Minnesota in the team's final game before the All-Star break.

Hedges is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Bo Naylor will return to the lineup after Hedges had started behind the plate in three of the Guardians' last four games. Though the Guardians have turned the catcher position into more of a timeshare lately, Hedges' playing time should fall by the wayside as soon as Naylor begins to heat back up. Naylor is batting just .174 on the season, but he's gone 5-for-20 with three doubles and a 2:3 BB:K over his last seven games.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Diaz will sit after a run of eight straight starts, during which he went 8-for-30 (.267) with two doubles, three homers and a stolen base. Victor Caratini will do the catching Sunday while Isaac Paredes serves as the designated hitter.
