July 24, 2025 4:48 PM : Diaz is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.
Analysis: It looks to be a routine day off after Diaz started at catcher in each of the Astros' previous two contests. Victor Caratini will be behind the dish and bat second in Thursday's series opener.
