Wells went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in Monday's 11-5 win over the Mariners.

Wells finished off a six-run fifth inning for the Yankees with his homer. He added a sacrifice fly to pad the lead in the seventh. The catcher has just one multi-hit effort over nine games in May, going 6-for-27 (.222) with three homers and 11 RBI this month. Overall, he's batting .215 with a .760 OPS, eight homers, 28 RBI, 15 runs scored and a stolen base across 139 plate appearances. He's not always consistent at the plate, but he has been impactful with his hitting lately.

Padres general manager A.J. Preller said Monday that Salas has been diagnosed with a stress reaction in his lower back and is expected to remain out until July, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Salas was placed on Double-A San Antonio's 7-day injured list at the beginning of May due to back spasms, but after further evaluation, the young catcher has been revealed to be dealing with a more significant injury. Cassavell notes that the team is hopeful Salas will be ready to resume playing in about two months after treating the back injury with rest and rehab.

Ballesteros is expected to be called up from Triple-A Iowa ahead of Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

A 21-year-old catching prospect, Ballesteros will likely enter the lineup Tuesday against the Marlins and could see regular starts at designated hitter with Ian Happ (oblique) set to be placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Ballesteros has been mashing at Triple-A so far this season, batting .368 with four home runs, 18 RBI and three stolen bases over 34 games.

Murphy (back) will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Murphy started the season on the 60-day injured list due to disc herniation in his back that he suffered during spring training in February. He'll have his injury re-evaluated near the end of June, so the 34-year-old catcher may not be back on the major-league roster until after the All-Star break.

Fermin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

Before sitting out Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Red Sox while Luke Maile received the nod behind the dish, Fermin had made three straight starts at catcher. Fermin will remain on the bench again Monday, and his brief run as the Royals' No. 1 backstop could be over. Salvador Perez had been limited to playing designated hitter or first base since returning to the lineup May 4 following a two-game absence due to a hip injury, but he'll resume catching Monday. If Perez checks out fine Monday, he could see his catching workload pick up in the games to come.

Heim is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.

Heim will hit the bench for Monday's series opener while Tucker Barnhart starts behind the plate and bats eighth. Heim went 1-for-12 with a solo home run while starting all three games at catcher during the Rangers' weekend series against the Tigers.

Rogers (oblique) could be ready to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment at some point this week, MLB.com reports.

Rogers has been steadily increasing his baseball activities as he works his way back from a left oblique strain, which has kept him on the injured list since April 8. In addition to taking regular batting practice, Rogers was able to catch a bullpen session Friday, then ran the bases and did some throwing Saturday. Dillon Dingler has been serving as the Tigers' primary option behind the plate since Rogers landed on the shelf.

Amaya is starting at catcher and batting eighth in Monday's game against the Marlins.

The Cubs are mixing things up a bit with Ian Happ (oblique) out for the third straight day, as regular DH Seiya Suzuki is covering Happ's spot in the outfield. Carson Kelly is sliding in as the DH on Monday, which opens up a start behind the plate for Amaya. While he hasn't been able to match Kelly's scintillating 1.151 OPS, Amaya has been a reliable offensive performer with a .741 OPS, three home runs and 18 RBI across 21 games.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that Fry (elbow) is set to begin playing in rehab games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League this week, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

After undergoing UCL revision surgery on his right elbow in November, Fry isn't expected to catch or play the infield or outfield at any point this season, but he'll be available as a designated hitter once he completes his hitting progression. He's seemingly reached the point in his rehab program where he's faced live pitching in simulated games, and he now looks like he's ready to stockpile at-bats in minor-league contests. Fry won't be eligible to return from the 60-day injured list until late May, and since he may only be in line for a short-side platoon role at DH once he's eventually activated, the Guardians could keep him in the minors for close to the full 20-day rehab window.

O'Hoppe is not in the lineup for Monday's game in San Diego.

It looks to be a routine day off for O'Hoppe, who had started each of the previous seven contests (five at designated hitter, two at catcher). Travis d'Arnaud is catching and batting sixth for the Halos on Monday.
