Moreno is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Moreno will receive a breather after he had started at catcher both of the previous two days while going 1-for-8 with a double. Tucker Barnhart will get the starting nod behind the dish in the series finale in Baltimore.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Jeffers looks to be getting a rest in the series finale after he started in each of the Twins' previous three games while going 2-for-11 with a pair of home runs and one walk. Christian Vazquez will spell Jeffers behind the dish.

Stallings went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Saturday against the Rangers.

Stallings is known for his glove and is a reliable backup catcher, but he's been quite productive at the dish of late. Across his last six games, he's hit .350 with eight RBI and three runs scored. Stallings has seen a moderate uptick in playing time of late, as Saturday marked his third time in the lineup in the last seven games.

Grandal went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 10-9 win over the Cubs.

The veteran catcher took Keegan Thompson deep in the bottom of the fifth inning to put the Pirates back on top for good after the Cubs had struck for seven runs in the top of the frame. It was Grandal's first homer and first RBI in five games since making his season debut May 4, and he's gone 4-for-17 over that stretch as he settles into the starting job for Pittsburgh.

Langeliers is not in Saturday's lineup against the Mariners.

Langeliers is on a heater, batting .429 with three home runs, two triples and two doubles in his last five games. Kyle McCann is starting behind the dish and hitting sixth.

Campusano is not in Saturday's lineup against the Dodgers.

Campusano is hitting .304 with one home run and three doubles in seven games this month. Kyle Higashioka is starting at catcher and batting ninth.

Lee is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the Guardians.

Lee will begin Saturday's game in the dugout while Martin Maldonado gets the start at catcher and bats ninth against Cleveland right-hander Triston McKenzie. Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday, and the 25-year-old is 7-for-18 with two home runs and four RBI over five games in May.

Reetz was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.

With Patrick Bailey getting activated off the concussion injured list, Reetz was no longer needed for catching depth at the big-league level. Reetz has a .217/.357/.435 slash line with two home runs in 15 games at Triple-A.

Bailey (concussion) was activated from the 7-day injured list Saturday and is starting behind the dish and hitting third against the Reds.

Bailey hit .278 with three home runs and one steal in 25 games prior to suffering a concussion May 3. He should take on the primary catcher role going forward.

Wong is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Wong will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 2-for-4 while scoring Boston's lone run in Friday's loss. The lefty-hitting Reese McGuire will start at catcher and bat seventh against Washington right-hander Jake Irvin.
