Del Castillo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

The 26-year-old finds himself on the bench for the second straight day while the Diamondbacks face another lefty starter in Matthew Boyd, and Del Castillo could soon find his path to playing time against righties narrower as well. Gabriel Moreno returned from the injured list Friday to serve as the Diamondbacks' primary catcher, and Jose Fernandez (.793 OPS in 93 plate appearances this season) has performed well enough to hold off Del Castillo (.601 OPS in 65 plate appearances) for regular reps at DH.
