McGuire was pulled from Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay due to a left thumb contusion, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

McGuire injured his thumb while catching warmup throws from Tanner Houck ahead of the third inning and was replaced by Connor Wong. There's no word on how long McGuire will be held out, but Wong figures to see more consistent starts behind the plate while McGuire recovers.

The Giants recalled Bart from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

After losing Jakob Junis (neck) for the year, the Giants will opt to bolster their bench depth and add Bart as their third catcher on the active roster. The 26-year-old backstop went 0-for-9 during his most recent stint in the majors and doesn't figure to see regular playing time during the final week of the season.

McGuire was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rays with a thumb injury, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

No word yet on the severity of McGuire's injury, but the Red Sox should provide more specifics in the near future. Connor Wong entered the game to replace McGuire behind the plate.

Campusano is out of the lineup Tuesday at San Francisco.

Brett Sullivan will start behind the plate and bat ninth versus the Giants and left-hander Kyle Harrison. Campusano has slashed .359/.388/.500 in 67 plate appearances since the beginning of September, but this is the second straight absence for the 24-year-old catcher.

Bailey is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Padres.

Blake Sabol will start at catcher and bat eighth against the Padres and right-hander Seth Lugo. Bailey went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Monday's series opener and is slashing just .130/.190/.148 over his last 58 plate appearances dating back to Aug. 30.

Jeffers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Oakland.

Jeffers has an .857 OPS over 45 at-bats in September but continues to split time behind the plate with Christian Vazquez, who is starting and batting eighth Tuesday.

Wong is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Wong has just one hit over his past nine games and will take a seat for Tuesday's contest. Reese McGuire will step in behind the plate to catch for righty Tanner Houck.

Alvarez (finger) is starting at catcher and batting seventh Tuesday versus Miami.

Alvarez made an early exit from Sunday's series finale at Philadelphia because of a bruised finger on his left hand, but it was never a serious concern. He's gone hitless over his last six games and will try to snap that streak Tuesday against the Marlins and left-hander Braxton Garrett.

Rogers is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's tilt versus the Royals, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

He has now yielded to Carson Kelly in four of the last six contests. September has been one of Rogers' best offensive months to this point, as he's put up an .810 OPS with four home runs.

Naylor (thumb) will catch and bat eighth for the Guardians in Tuesday's game versus the Reds.

It will be the first action Naylor sees since he suffered a bruised right thumb during Friday's win over the Orioles. The rookie catcher will look to continue his strong finish to the season, as he'll carry a 1.020 OPS for the month into play Tuesday.
