Narvaez will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

He'll get the nod behind the plate for the fourth time in five games and seems to have taken over as the Red Sox's preferred backstop ahead of Connor Wong, who is batting just .146 on the season. Narvaez has performed well at the dish, especially by catcher's standards, throughout the campaign, slashing .260/.313/.433 with four home runs and 14 RBI across 112 plate appearances.

Wong is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

The 28-year-old will hit the bench for the fourth time in five games and looks to have at least temporarily fallen behind Carlos Narvaez on the depth chart at catcher. Wong produced a respectable .758 OPS over 487 plate appearances with Boston in 2024 but has struggled to find a rhythm at the plate since rejoining the big club May 2 following a stint on the injured list due to a broken finger. He's gone just 4-for-18 with one walk against six strikeouts since being activated and is slashing .146/.239/.146 overall on the season.

The Dodgers are expected to designate Barnes for assignment Wednesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Barnes had been the team's longest-tenured position player but will lose his 40-man roster spot with the Dodgers set to promote prospect Dalton Rushing from Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 35-year-old Barnes is making $3.5 million this season and is slashing only .214/.233/.286 in 13 contests.

The Dodgers will call up Rushing from Triple-A Oklahoma City ahead of Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Austin Barnes will be designated for assignment in a corresponding move. Rushing has torched Pacific Coast League pitching this season, slashing .308/.424/.514 with five home runs and a 29:21 K:BB over 132 plate appearances. He's made 16 starts at catcher, eight starts at first base and one start in left field this season. With Teoscar Hernandez (groin) and Tommy Edman (ankle) on the injured list and with Michael Conforto struggling, Rushing's best opportunity for playing time could come in the outfield. He will also see starts at catcher on off days for Will Smith.

Bailey is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Bailey caught both of the first two games of the series, so he'll get a breather for Wednesday's afternoon tilt. Sam Huff will start behind the dish and bat seventh for the Giants.

Wells is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Seattle.

Wells caught each of the last four games, so he will receive some rest during Wednesday's matinee. J.C. Escarra will be behind the dish and bat eighth for the Yankees.

Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Baldwin will start behind the plate Thursday against the Nationals and could see more playing time moving forward, David O'Brien of the Athletic reports.

In his most recent start in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Washington, Baldwin went 3-for-4 with his fourth home run of the season. Sean Murphy will get the nod behind the plate Wednesday, but as long as he's contributing with his bat, the rookie backstop should continue to see an equal share of the workload against right-handed pitching, although he has yet to get a start against a lefty. Through his first 25 big-league games, Baldwin is slashing .329/.382/.557 with a 6:13 BB:K.

Moreno is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in San Francisco.

Moreno caught both of the first two games of the series but will get a breather for Wednesday's afternoon contest. Jose Herrera will do the catching and bat ninth for the Diamondbacks.

Naylor is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Brewers.

Naylor caught both of the first two games of the series but will get a breather for Wednesday's matinee. Austin Hedges will start behind the dish and bat ninth for the Guardians.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals.

Rafael Marchan will start behind the plate in Game 1, but expect Realmuto to handle the catching duties in the second contest of the day. Through his first nine games of May, Realmuto is slashing .290/.389/.484 with one home run, five runs, five RBI and a 5:5 BB:K.
