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.

The Mariners outrighted Hunt to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

After being designated for assignment Thursday, Hunt went unclaimed off waivers and will stick around in the Mariners organization as catching depth at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old backstop has slashed .231/.271/.407 with two home runs over 96 plate appearances in the Pacific Coast League this season.

Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

Davis will give way behind the plate to Endy Rodriguez, who will pick up his first start since being activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday. Davis started the prior three games and looks like he could serve as the team's top option behind the plate while Joey Bart (concussion) is on the 7-day injured list. Davis wrapped up May with a .237/.341/.342 slash line and a 22.2 percent strikeout rate over 46 plate appearances on the month.

The Rangers designated Barnhart for assignment Sunday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 34-year-old was added to the big-league roster in late April and appeared in just eight games during his time in the majors, going 3-for-13 with a walk in 15 plate appearances. Barnhart will have the option to elect free agency if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Jansen will get a breather after starting behind the plate in the first two games of the series. Matt Thaiss will handle catching duties Sunday for the Rays.

Kelly is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

It's likely just a rest day for Kelly, who went 0-for-10 with a walk while starting the previous three games. Reese McGuire will step in behind the plate to catch for veteran righty Jameson Taillon on Sunday.

Dingler is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Dingler will receive Sunday off after going 3-for-5 with two walks, a home run and three RBI in the first two games of the series. Jake Rogers will take over behind the plate and bat eighth.
