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.

Stephenson is out of the lineup Tuesday at Cleveland.

Luke Maile will start at catcher and bat ninth for the Reds as they take on the Guardians and right-hander Lucas Giolito. Stephenson went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Sunday's series finale versus the Pirates and carries a disappointing .698 OPS through 504 plate appearances this season.

Diaz is not in the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers.

Austin Wynns will catch and bat eighth for the Rockies in the early tilt at Coors Field, with Diaz presumably lined up to start the nightcap. Diaz, 32, is sitting on 14 home runs and 72 RBI through 136 games this season.

Smith is not in the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader at Colorado.

Smith will presumably catch in the nightcap after Austin Barnes starts behind the plate and bats ninth in the early tilt at Coors Field. Smith is sitting on a .796 OPS with 18 homers and 72 RBI through 122 games this season.
