Herrera isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Saturday's game against the Mariners, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Herrera has gone 5-for-15 with three RBI across his last five games, but he'll sit down for a second consecutive contest Saturday while Pedro Pages catches for Kyle Gibson and bats seventh.

Lee (back) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

Lee was scratched from Friday's lineup with back tightness, and he'll get the night off Saturday as well. Chuckie Robinson will fill in for Lee behind the dish.

The Phillies selected Garcia's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday.

J.T. Realmuto suffered a knee injury Friday against the Marlins and Garcia will come up to provide depth behind the plate. If Realmuto is forced to miss time, Garcia would be in line to share catching duties with Garrett Stubbs. That said, Garcia hasn't appeared in an MLB game since 2022 and is slashing .161/.215/.282 with Lehigh Valley this season.

Rortvedt isn't in the Rays' lineup for Saturday's game against Baltimore, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Rortvedt will take a seat Saturday after going 0-for-3 with a walk during Friday's series opener. Logan Driscoll will start behind the dish instead and bat sixth.

Realmuto (knee) isn't in the lineup Saturday against the Marlins.

Realmuto was taken out of Friday's contest after he fouled a ball off his left knee in the second inning. The team hasn't indicated that the 33-year-old will need to spend time on the injured list, though the issue is apparently severe enough to warrant a day off Saturday. Garrett Stubbs will catch for starting pitcher Aaron Nola.

Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup Saturday against Oakland.

After going 1-for-7 with two walks and a run scored across Detroit's last two games, Rogers will take a seat on the bench while Dillon Dingler starts behind the plate and bats eighth.

Herrera (head) will start at catcher and bat ninth Saturday versus Houston.

Herrera had to make an early exit from Friday's contest after getting hit in the head by Kyle Tucker's backswing, but the 27-year-old backstop appears to be fine entering Saturday's game. Since Aug. 20, he's gone 4-for-22 with four RBI and two runs scored.

Del Castillo isn't in Arizona's lineup for Saturday's game against the Astros.

With Yusei Kikuchi slated to start for Houston, the lefty-hitting Del Castillo will retreat to the bench Saturday. Jose Herrera (head) will fill in behind the dish and bat ninth.

Langeliers isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers.

Langeliers will get to rest Saturday after going 1-for-6 during Friday's 13-inning series opener. Kyle McCann will catch instead for Brady Basso while batting ninth.

Amaya isn't in the Cubs' lineup Saturday against the Yankees.

Amaya will get a day to regroup after going 0-for-9 across his last three games. Christian Bethancourt will take over behind the dish and bat ninth.
