Returning to lineup Friday Campusano (abdomen) will start at catcher and bat ninth Friday against the Royals.

He's gone 6-for-18 with five walks, a homer and four runs scored since returning from a fractured toe July 4.

JULY 14 • FRIARSONBASE.COM

Scratched Sunday Campusano was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays due to abdominal soreness, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact The 28-year-old was penciled in to start behind the plate Sunday but was instead replaced by Rodolfo Duran due to the injury. Campusano will now have five full days to recover before the Padres start the second half of the season Friday in Kansas City.

JULY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting Friday Campusano isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Blue Jays.

JULY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Sparks rally with homer Campusano went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Wednesday's 10-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Campusano has gone 5-for-11 over five games since he returned from a fractured toe, but his homer Wednesday was his first extra-base hit in that span. The catcher is now batting .317 with a 1.022 OPS, four homers, 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and seven doubles across 23 contests. He looks to be the Padres' primary backstop at this time, serving in the starting role over Rodolfo Duran while Freddy Fermin (head) is out.

Exiting starting lineup Campusano is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Diamondbacks.

Impact Campusano returned from the injured list Friday and started at catcher each of the previous two days. He'll get a day off for Monday's series opener, with Rodolfo Duran filling in behind the dish.

JULY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Activated from IL The Padres reinstated Campusano (toe) from the injured list Friday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact With Freddy Fermin (head) landing on the injured list Friday, Campusano will return to the active roster to replenish San Diego's catcher depth. The 27-year-old backstop has been on the shelf since May 7 with a fractured toe, but he was cleared to begin playing in rehab games Tuesday and has since gone 2-for-6 with two walks, a homer and an additional RBI. He and Rodolfo Duran will likely split starts behind the dish until Fermin is healthy.

JULY 4 • ROTOWIRE

In midst of rehab stint Campusano (foot) began a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday and has gone 2-for-6 with a home run, two RBI and a 2:2 BB:K through two games.

Impact Prior to beginning the rehab assignment, Campusano hadn't logged game action since he fouled a ball off his left foot and suffered a fractured toe May 5. He's worked behind the plate in each of his contests with El Paso so far, but San Diego may want him to get in a few more rehab outings given the length of his absence. With that said, Freddy Fermin is being evaluated for a concussion after taking a foul tip off his mask against the Dodgers on Thursday, and there may be more urgency for Campusano to be activated if Fermin needs to miss time.

Ready for rehab assignment Campusano (toe) will embark on a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso later this week, Annie Heilbrunn of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Campusano is ready to take the next step in his recovery from a left toe fracture that landed him on the injured list in early May. Rodolfo Duran has served as the Padres' backup catcher behind Freddy Fermin, but the former would likely be optioned to Triple-A once Campusano has been cleared to be reinstated from the 10-day IL. Barring any setbacks, Campusano could be back with the big club in early-to-mid July, perhaps prior to the All-Star break.
