  • Joe Hudson C | HOU

    Mets' Joe Hudson: Contract selected

    The Mets selected Hudson's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday and optioned him to Syracuse.

    The Mets will be allowed a 27-man roster for their series in London this weekend against the Phillies, and Hudson would appear to be a good bet to join the big club as a third catcher. Hudson, who has posted an .808 OPS over 66 plate appearances with Syracuse this season, last appeared in the majors in 2020.

  • Giants' Patrick Bailey: Getting rest Wednesday

    Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Bailey will take a seat for the Wednesday afternoon game after he started behind the plate Monday and Tuesday. Curt Casali will spell Bailey at catcher in the series finale.

  • Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Resting Wednesday

    Moreno is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

    He'll be getting some routine maintenance after he caught nine innings and went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in the Diamondbacks' 8-5 win Tuesday night. Tucker Barnhart will draw the start behind the plate Wednesday while Moreno rests.

  • Phillies' J.T. Realmuto: Day off Wednesday

    Realmuto is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Brewers.

    The Phillies and Brewers are playing a day game Wednesday after Realmuto caught all 10 innings of a 2-1 win Tuesday, so he appears to be getting some rest in the series finale. Garrett Stubbs will start behind the dish for the Phillies on Wednesday as they go for the sweep of Milwaukee.

  • Tomas Nido C | DET

    Mets' Tomas Nido: Taking seat Wednesday

    Nido is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    After catching seven innings of the Mets' 6-3 win Tuesday night, Nido will get a breather Wednesday as the NL East rivals wrap up their series with a day game. Luis Torrens will check in behind the plate for Nido on Wednesday.

  • Red Sox's Brooks Brannon: Returns to action at Single-A

    Brannon (knee) was reinstated from Single-A Salem's 60-day injured list and went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored while catching nine innings in Tuesday's 6-5 win over Down East.

    Brannon made his 2024 debut for Salem after opening the season on the IL while he completed his recovery from arthroscopic left knee surgery. Before making his return to Salem, Brannon went 4-for-23 at the plate over eight rehab games in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.

  • Connor Wong C | BOS

    Red Sox's Connor Wong: Rest day Wednesday

    Wong is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    The Red Sox are playing a day game Wednesday after losing to Atlanta on Tuesday night, so Wong will be getting a maintenance day. Reese McGuire will pick up the start at catcher while Wong rests.

  • Sean Murphy C | ATL

    Braves' Sean Murphy: Sitting out Wednesday

    Murphy (elbow) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Boston.

    Murphy departed Tuesday's 8-3 win after being struck on the right elbow by a pitch. X-rays came back negative, and Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the swelling on the elbow has mostly subsided. Murphy could be ready to go as soon as Thursday, but Travis d'Arnaud will fill in at catcher for Atlanta on Wednesday.

  • Henry Davis C | PIT

    Pirates' Henry Davis: Collects hit in return

    Davis went 1-for-3 with a double Tuesday against the Dodgers.

    Davis was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis and hit eighth while starting behind the plate. He tallied a double in the seventh inning, only his fourth extra-base hit across 86 plate appearances this season. Davis should find his way into Pittsburgh's lineup regularly so long as Joey Bart (thumb) is sidelined, likely splitting reps at catcher with Yasmani Grandal.

  • Korey Lee C | CHW

    White Sox's Korey Lee: Drives in pair

    Lee went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Cubs.

    Lee delivered a timely two-RBI double in the fourth inning and came around to score in the same frame. It was only his third performance of the season with multiple runs driven in and his first since May 4. Lee has now started six consecutive games, four of which have come at catcher and two at designated hitter.
