Padres' Freddy Fermin: Day off Tuesday
Rotowire
Fermin isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Arizona.
After going 3-for-9 with two RBI and a run scored through his first three games as a Padre, Fermin will get a breather Tuesday while Elias Diaz starts behind the plate and bats ninth.
The Royals traded Fermin to the Padres on Thursday in exchange for Ryan Bergert and Stephen Kolek, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Fermin has slashed .255/.309/.339 with three homers, 12 RBI and 17 runs scored across 208 plate appearances with the Royals this season. While those numbers don't exactly jump off the page, they're still good enough to make him the frontrunner for starts behind the plate in San Diego over Elias Diaz (.577 OPS) and Martin Maldonado (.572 OPS).

Royals' Freddy Fermin: Resting up Sunday
Rotowire
Fermin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Fermin had started three of the Royals' previous four games, but he'll get a breather while Salvador Perez covers first base and Luke Maile gets a turn behind the plate. Though the Royals recently bolstered their lineup with the acquisition of Randal Grichuk, the absence of Jac Caglianone (hamstring) should allow Fermin's playing time to remain relatively stable while Perez continues to see more starts at first base or designated hitter rather than catcher.
