Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Bailey will receive a breather for Sunday's day game after he started the prior two contests. Andrew Knizner will handle catching duties for the Giants in the series finale.

Kirk is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

After starting behind the plate in four straight contests, Kirk will get a routine breather. Tyler Heineman will spell him at catcher and bat ninth.

Marchan will start at catcher and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Nationals.

With top backstop J.T. Realmuto receiving a rare day off, Marchan will pick up just his 24th start of the season. He's slashing .177/.270/.241 with one home run, six runs and six RBI across 90 plate appearances in 2025.

Baldwin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Baldwin started the first two games of the series, but he'll head to the bench Sunday while southpaw David Peterson takes the hill for New York. Sean Murphy will handle catching duties for Atlanta.

Torrens (hand) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game at Atlanta.

Torrens was held out of action for the past three games while managing a sore left hand, but he's made enough progress in his recovery to re-enter the starting nine for the series finale in Atlanta. With Francisco Alvarez (thumb) on the shelf, Torrens should be in line to see the bulk of the starts behind the dish for the Mets now that he's moved past the hand issue.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Realmuto started the previous five contests and is in the midst of a seven-game hit streak, during which he's batting .440 (11-for-25) with two doubles and three home runs, but he'll take a seat for Sunday's series finale versus Washington. Rafael Marchan will step in behind the plate to catch for lefty Ranger Suarez.

Feduccia is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

With southpaw Matthew Liberatore toeing the rubber for the Cardinals, Feduccia will give way to Nick Fortes behind the dish. Feduccia has produced a minuscule .506 OPS in 15 games since being acquired from the Dodgers at the trade deadline.

Narvaez went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and an additional run scored in Saturday's 12-1 win over the Yankees.

Narvaez put the final touch on the win with a two-run shot to left-center field to cap a seven-run ninth inning. He's been a thorn in the side of his former organization, slashing .348/.545/.795 with two home runs and six RBI over seven contests against the Yankees in 2025. Narvaez has a .738 OPS with 11 home runs, 21 doubles, 38 RBI and 45 runs scored over 93 games in his first season with Boston.

Davis will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Davis has posted a .720 OPS dating back to Aug. 7 and appears to have poached more playing time from Joey Bart at catcher as a result. He'll be included in the lineup for the fourth time in the last six games.

Bart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Bart will take a seat for the series finale while the playing time at catcher appears to be tilting back in favor of Henry Davis. Over the last six games, Bart has drawn just two starts to Davis' four.
