Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

With the series finale in Washington beginning at 11:35 a.m. ET, Realmuto will get a chance to catch his breath after he went 2-for-4 while playing eight innings behind the dish in Saturday's 2-0 win. Rafael Marchan will handle the catching duties for Philadelphia on Sunday.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rays.

Adames singled to left field in the sixth inning, then stole second before coming around to score the Giants' lone run. The 29-year-old shortstop has recorded a hit and a stolen base in back-to-back outings after going 0-for-18 over his previous five games. He's slashing .235/.316/.480 with 19 runs scored, 14 RBI, seven homers, four doubles and two stolen bases across 114 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

Perdomo went 1-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 10-7 loss to Colorado.

Perdomo continues to thrive as the leadoff batter. In five games since being moved to the top of the order, he's reached base safely nine times (.391 OBP) with three steals and eight runs scored. Saturday's stolen base was his career-high 20th.

Winn threw a scoreless ninth inning in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rays, allowing one hit and one walk.

The 27-year-old made his season debut with San Francisco due to Ryan Walker being placed on the paternity list. Winn threw only five of his 12 pitches for strikes, and the right-hander had struggled at Triple-A Sacramento before being recalled, recording a 9.31 ERA, 1.88 WHIP and a 20:7 K:BB across 19.1 innings in 11 appearances (three starts).

The Phillies optioned Kemp to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

The rookie had started just three of the last eight games, and since his playing-time outlook wasn't going to improve with Alec Bohm (rib) returning from the injured list Sunday, the Phillies opted to send Kemp back to the minors. After getting called up from Triple-A on June 7, the 25-year-old slashed .228/.298/.359 with four home runs, one stolen base, 17 RBI and 17 runs over 46 games.

Del Castillo went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and three RBI in Saturday's loss to Colorado.

Del Castillo made the most of his opportunities at altitude, notching his second three-RBI performance in the last week. The catcher has appeared in 20 games since being called up after the All-Star break, seeing most of his action at DH and batting .239 (16-for-67) with two homers and 10 RBI.

The Phillies reinstated Bohm (rib) from the 10-day injured list, and he will start at third base and bat cleanup Sunday against the Nationals.

The third baseman has been on the shelf nearly a month due to a left rib fracture, but he's ready to rejoin the Phillies after going 3-for-21 over five minor-league rehab games. In 37 games since June 1, Bohm is batting .290 with three home runs, 21 RBI, 14 runs and a .749 OPS.

Gurriel went 2-for-4 with three RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 10-7 loss to the Rockies.

Gurriel provided solid production, driving in three runs without the benefit of an extra-base hit. The left fielder has now posted a trio of three-RBI performances dating back to Aug. 9, and through 15 games this month he's batting .259 (15-for-58) with 17 of his 65 RBI on the season.
