Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Jacob Stallings (knee) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener with the Cardinals, as he continues to deal with a knee contusion, according to Jake Crouse of MLB.com. Stallings exited Sunday's game after taking a foul ball off his knee while behind the plate in the top of the seventh inning, but examinations determined it was nothing serious and the team listed Stallings as day-to-day. When healthy, Stallings has been a solid fantasy option at catcher this season, as he is slashing .257/.370/.446 with three home runs, 15 RBI and 11 runs scored in 33. In the meantime, Michael Perez will get the start behind the plate for Pittsburgh and is batting eighth on Tuesday night.--Michael

Colorado Rockies catcher Jacob Stallings and shortstop Kyle Farmer are not in the starting nine on Wednesday evening when they continue a series against the Kansas City Royals. Stallings has started in each of the previous two games and gone 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI. Instead, Hunter Goodman will move behind the dish, which will open the DH spot for Nick Martini. Farmer has been an everyday option for the Rockies through the early part of the campaign. Through 21 games, Farmer has posted a strong .284/.319/.418 slash line with nine doubles. However, this evening, Aaron Schunk will cover shortstop, and Adael Amador will cover the keystone. Both Stallings and Farmer will likely return to the starting nine on Thursday. The Rockies are worth targeting in DFS this evening as they will face Kansas City right-hander Michael Lorenzen, who carries a high 4.57 ERA.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Colorado Rockies catcher Jacob Stallings is expected to be given the "bulk" of the starts behind the dish. Patrick Lyons of Just BB Media noted that Drew Romo, Hunter Goodman, and Austin Nola will compete for the No. 2 role during camp. The 35-year-old enjoyed a career season during his debut campaign in Colorado last summer. Across 82 contests, the backstop held a .263/.357/.457 line and hit 17 doubles and nine home runs. However, he generated a weak .235 xBA and a .381 xSLG, which could suggest he may face some regression during the upcoming season. He also showed a strong eye at the plate with an above-average 9.8 percent walk rate. Given that Stallings will see most of the starts, he will have streaming appeal in deeper two-catcher formats playing in a favorable hitting park.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The Colorado Rockies announced on Wednesday that they agreed to re-sign catcher Jacob Stallings to an undisclosed one-year deal that includes a mutual option for the 2026 season. Stallings became a free agent this offseason after declining his portion of a mutual option for 2025, but he now finds himself back with the Rockies for at least another season. The 34-year-old veteran backstop found himself working as the team's primary catcher down the stretch in 2024 and he finished with a .263/.357/.453 slash line, an impressive .810 OPS, a career-high nine home runs, 36 RBI and 31 runs scored in 281 trips to the plate over 82 games played for Colorado. Stallings will give the Rockies extra catching depth again next year, but fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting him to serve as the lead backstop all year. Drew Romo and perhaps even Hunter Goodman should factor in at the position.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Colorado Rockies catcher Jacob Stallings went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in a 5-4 loss to the Miami Marlins on Thursday. Stallings kicked off the scoring for the Rockies with a three-run blast off Edwin Cabrera in the second inning, but it wasn't enough for the Rockies as they fell to Miami in extra innings. Stallings has been swinging a hot bat as the backup catcher in Colorado as he's batting .345 with one homer, four runs, and five RBI across 29 at-bats. That being said, he will need to see more consistent playing time to work his way into the conversation as a fantasy option.--Matt T - RotoBaller
