    • Luis Campusano (thumb) considered day-to-day
      Luis Campusano was scratched from the Padres’ starting lineup on Friday night due to a left thumb contusion.

      Advice: Fortunately, the injury isn’t believed to be serious, and the 25-year-old backstop is considered day-to-day. Kyle Higashioka is starting in his place behind the dish on Friday night and will carry the load until Campusano is ready to return. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:58 pm
       
    • Scratched due to left thumb injury
      Campusano (thumb) has been scratched from Friday's lineup against the Brewers, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Campusano was initially slated to start behind home plate and bat eighth, but manager Mike Shildt said the catcher was scratched due to "soreness and bruising" in his left thumb, and it's unclear whether a stint on the IL is needed. Kyle Higashioka will instead start at catcher and bat ninth against Brewers right-hander Colin Rea. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:36 pm
       
    • Luis Campusano scratched from Padres lineup
      Luis Campusano was scratched from the Padres’ starting lineup on Friday night.

      Advice: No word yet as to the reason for the late scratch, but it’ll be Kyle Higashioka starting in his place behind the dish and batting ninth against Colin Rea and the Brewers on Friday evening in San Diego. Stay tuned. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:29 pm
       
    • Sean Murphy goes 4-for-4, homers twice in victory
      Sean Murphy went 4-for-4 and hit a pair of two-run homers as the Braves bested the Tigers 7-0 on Wednesday.

      Advice: A big game for a slumping hitter. Murphy, who missed most of April and May, hadn’t achieved even a two-hit game in his 15 previous starts this season. He had totaled one homer and four RBI in 56 plate appearances. His OPS jumped from .408 to .625 today. Rotoworld Wednesday, 12:31 pm
       
    • Breaks out with two homers
      Murphy went 4-for-4 with a pair of two-run homers and three total runs scored in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Tigers.

      Advice: Murphy extended Atlanta's lead to 3-0 in the third inning with a two-run blast off Tarik Skubal before cranking a second two-run homer in the fifth off Mason Englert. It's the first multi-hit game of the year for Murphy, who was batting just .135 with a lone homer through his first 15 games this season. Perhaps Wednesday's outburst is a sign of things to come for the 29-year-old backstop -- Murphy posted an .843 OPS with 21 homers across 438 plate appearances last year.

    • Absent from lineup
      Campusano is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Philadelphia.

      Advice: Campusano and Kyle Higashioka have split starts down the middle this month at catcher, with both getting nine apiece. Higashioka will catch Wednesday for Padres knuckleballer Matt Waldron. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:23 am
       
    • Idle Tuesday
      Murphy is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

      Advice: Murphy has struggled after missing the first two months of the season with an oblique injury, owning a .408 OPS and a 28.6 percent strikeout rate across 56 plate appearances with Atlanta. As Murphy works through the slow start, Atlanta will turn to Travis d'Arnaud behind the plate Tuesday for the fourth time in nine games. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:19 pm
       
    • Sitting against lefty again
      Campusano is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: The Padres seem to have opted for a de facto platoon at catcher of late, even though both Campusano and Kyle Higashioka are right-handed hitters. Higashioka will stick in the lineup Monday for the fourth time in the Padres' last five matchups with lefties, while Campusano will take a seat. Campusano should still see the bulk of the playing time behind the dish as the Padres' preferred option against righties. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:40 pm
       
    • Sitting Sunday
      Murphy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: Murphy will rest for the series finale after he started behind the plate Friday and Saturday while going 2-for-7 with a walk and a run scored. Travis d'Arnaud will garner the start at catcher Sunday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:07 am
