Marchan will start at catcher and bat ninth in Thursday's game against the Rockies.

With top backstop J.T. Realmuto getting a breather for the day game after a night game, Marchan will pick up his 10th start of the season. So long as Realmuto stays healthy, he'll likely shoulder one of the heaviest workloads among No. 1 catchers, leaving few opportunities available for Marchan.

Langeliers is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.

With the Athletics and Angels wrapping up their series with a day game after a night game, Langeliers will get a well-deserved respite. Jhonny Pereda will step in behind the plate in place of Langeliers, who had started each of the Athletics' last 12 games at either catcher or designated hitter.

Reamuto is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Colorado.

The Phillies are wrapping up their series in Colorado with a day game, and Realmuto had started at catcher in each of the first three contests versus the Rockies, so he'll get a breather for the finale. Rafael Marchan will start behind the dish and bat ninth as the Phillies try to complete the sweep.

Wells is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers.

Wells will get a breather for Thursday's matinee after he caught all nine innings of Wednesday's 4-3 win while going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts. He remains entrenched as the Yankees' No. 1 catcher, but Wells is in the midst of a bit of a rough patch at the plate, having slashed .129/.256/.290 with a 30.8 percent strikeout rate over his last 11 games.

Kirk is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Padres.

Kirk started the previous three contests behind the plate, so he'll get a breather for Thursday's matinee. Tyler Heineman will catch and bat ninth for the Blue Jays.

Heim (hand) will start at designated hitter and bat sixth in Thursday's game against the Yankees.

Heim suffered a compressed nerve in his right hand on a base hit in the top of the second inning of Wednesday's 4-3 loss. According to ESPN.com, Heim initially came on the field for the bottom of the second, but after airmailing a throw back to right-hander Jacob deGrom on the first pitch of the inning, the Rangers elected to pull Heim from the game. Bochy relayed after the game that imaging on Heim's hand came back negative, but the Rangers aren't yet ready to deploy the veteran backstop behind the plate. Heim will handle a non-defensive role in the series finale while Kyle Higashioka steps in at catcher.

Torrens went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.

The 29-year-old catcher has started seven of 19 games in May, hitting safely in the last five while batting. 300 (6-for-20) on the month. Torrens hasn't provided much other production, supplying just one RBI and two runs over that stretch, but half his hits have gone for extra bases (two doubles and a triple) and he sports a 7:4 BB:K. Francisco Alvarez is entrenched as the Mets' starter behind the plate, but Torrens' workload and current form still give him some fantasy value in deep NL-only formats.

Goodman went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base Wednesday against the Phillies.

Goodman went hitless across the first two games of the Rockies' homestand but delivered a well-rounded line Wednesday. He remains one of Colorado's most consistent hitters and has hit .313 with two homers, 17 RBI and eight runs scored across 19 games in May.

Raleigh went 2-for-3 with a double and a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the White Sox.

Raleigh took Brandon Eisert deep in the sixth inning, tying the game at 4-4. The homer was Raleigh's fourth in nine games and his 16th on the year, tying him with Aaron Judge for second most in MLB behind Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Schwarber. The 28-year-old Raleigh is slashing .249/.370/.584 with 33 RBI, 32 runs scored and five stolen bases across 208 plate appearances this year.

Del Castillo (shoulder) served as the designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored for the ACL Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Del Castillo began a rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League as he works back from a shoulder strain that idled him for nearly two months. He emerged as a prospect in 2024 at Triple-A Reno and acquitted himself well in a cup of coffee in the majors. The view is that Del Castillo needs improvement in some areas behind the plate, but the bat could play in the majors. Once ready, he's expected to be assigned to Reno.
