MLB Player News

Dingler went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Monday's 13-1 win over the White Sox.

Dingler was one of three Detroit players to go deep, including Kerry Carpenter, who crushed three long balls. That effort overshadowed Dingler, but the catcher has been quietly productive all year as he's taken hold of the starting job for the Tigers. The 26-year-old now has six long balls and a .794 OPS this season, compared to no home runs and a paltry .410 OPS for backup catcher Jake Rogers.

The Orioles outrighted Tromp to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

Tromp was cast off the 40-man roster Saturday and will report to Triple-A after failing to draw interest while on the waiver wire. He's batting .254 with three home runs, 10 RBI and nine runs scored across 20 games with the Tides this season.

Rodriguez was placed on the full-season injured list Monday due to an undisclosed injury, per MiLB transactions log.

Rodriguez was placed on the 7-day injured list May 20 before being transferred to the full-season IL on Monday. The nature of his injury remains unclear at this time. Rodriguez was batting .359 with two home runs, 19 RBI and eight runs scored over 21 appearances at Double-A Biloxi prior to suffering the injury.

Smith it not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

It's a routine day off after Smith caught each of the previous four contests for the Dodgers. Dalton Rushing is at catcher and batting eighth in Monday's series opener.

Jeffers is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Athletics.

It's a routine day off for Jeffers, who is 2-for-22 across his last six contests. Christian Vazquez will do the catching and bat ninth for the Twins on Monday.

Quero is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

Quero will get some rest after he started at either catcher or designated hitter in five of Chicago's previous six contests. Korey Lee will step in behind the plate for the series opener versus Detroit.

Teel has been working out at first base recently at Triple-A Charlotte, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Teel has yet to play a position other than catcher in pro ball, and it's unlikely he'll be moved off that position on a full-time basis anytime soon. However, with Edgar Quero also vying for reps behind the plate, it makes sense for Teel to get some reps at another position. Teel is slashing .289/.394/.491 with eight home runs and seven stolen bases over 48 games with Charlotte in 2025.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

Raleigh went on a tear to end May and has carried some momentum into June. Since May 16 (16 games), Raleigh has launched 10 home runs and driven in 17 runs while going 18-for-59 (.305) at the plate. He's gone yard in three consecutive games and has the lead for most home runs in baseball with 23. In 253 plate appearances, Raleigh boasts a 1.016 OPS.

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

Diaz will take a seat for the second day in a row while Martin Maldonado receives another start behind the dish. Since he's still started six of the Padres' last 10 games overall, Diaz appears to be the team's preferred catching option, though that hasn't meant much for fantasy purposes. Diaz closed May with just six hits in 45 at-bats (.133 average) over his final 16 games of the month.

Moreno is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Moreno went 2-for-7 with a double, an RBI and a run while starting the first two games of the series and will sit for Sunday's finale. Jose Herrera will take over behind the plate to catch for ace Corbin Burnes.
