D'Arnaud is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

D'Arnaud hits the bench for the second time in the last three games, though this is likely just standard rotation behind the plate and not a sign that he's losing playing time, as he owns a .960 OPS over his last seven games. Tyler Flowers starts in his place Tuesday.

Realmuto went 1-for-3 with two walks, a home run, one RBI and three runs scored Monday against the Mets.

Realmuto took Erasmo Ramirez deep in the fifth inning to record his 10th homer of the season. He also came around to score on two other occasions, both times reaching base on free passes. For the season, Realmuto is hitting .262/.347/.531 across 147 plate appearances.

Smith went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Rockies.

Smith retied the game for the Dodgers in the second inning with his solo shot. The catcher now has six homers, 15 RBI and 13 runs scored in 23 games this season.

Campusano has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left wrist sprain, retroactive to Sept. 5.

Any injury at this point puts the rest of his season in jeopardy, though the Padres have not ruled out a return for Campusano before the end of the month. Former Mariners closer Taylor Williams was recalled in a corresponding move, so San Diego will be rolling with two catchers again, at least until Francisco Mejia (thumb) is ready.

Bart is not in Sunday's lineup against the Diamondbacks.

Bart started the first two games of the team's weekend series and has come alive with the bat of late, collecting eight hits in his last 17 at-bats. However, he'll retreat to the bench for the finale, with Chadwick Tromp taking over behind the plate and batting ninth.

Nola went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's loss to the Athletics.

Although the Padres were unable to keep up with the Athletics on the scoreboard Saturday, Nola continued his power surge as he now has three extra-base hits over the past two games. The 30-year-old should continue to play behind the dish in San Diego, but his defensive versatility should allow him to move around the infield if needed.

Stallings is not in Sunday's lineup against the Reds.

Stallings homered in Saturday's game, but he'll get a breather after starting the first two games of the series. John Ryan Murphy will take over behind the plate and will bat ninth.

Realmuto is not in Sunday's lineup against the Mets.

Realmuto will get a breather after appearing in the starting lineup for nine consecutive days. Andrew Knapp will take over behind the dish and bat seventh.

Bart went 2-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's win over Arizona.

Bart legged out the first triple of his MLB career and has been on fire this month, hitting in all four of his September appearances and posting a .471 average in that stretch. Small sample size applies here, but this is quite an improvement compared to the .161 average he posted in 10 August games.

Narvaez is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest against Cleveland.

Narvaez is sitting for the second time in the series despite collecting one hit in each of his last four starts. Jacob Nottingham is getting the nod behind the dish and is batting ninth in his place.
