Padres' Freddy Fermin: Playing time on downturn
Fermin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.
Fermin will hit the bench for the third time in four games and looks like he'll be part of a three-way timeshare at catcher as the season winds down after the Padres recently called up top prospect Ethan Salas from Triple-A El Paso. Though he's a reliable defender behind the plate, Fermin has mustered a lowly .563 OPS over 240 plate appearances on the season.

Padres' Freddy Fermin: Playing time ticking up
Fermin will start at catcher and will bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.
The start for Fermin marks his fourth over the last six contests, as he may have inched back ahead of Luis Campusano in the Padres' catcher pecking order. Fermin is slashing .312/.323/.426 so far in the second half, though he's hit only one home run across 23 games.

Padres' Freddy Fermin: Back on bench Wednesday
Fermin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.
Fermin had started behind the plate in three of the previous four contests but will cede catching duties to Luis Campusano for the series finale at Citi Field. The two backstops are likely to be used in a near-even timeshare moving forward, with Fermin's defensive prowess allowing him to retain playing time despite Campusano having been the far more productive hitter.

Padres' Freddy Fermin: Snaps power drought Saturday
Fermin went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in a 6-5 win against the Giants on Saturday.
Fermin turned a one-run deficit into a one-run lead with a two-run blast in the fourth inning. He added another RBI with a single in the sixth. The backstop homered in three straight games in early June, but since then he had gone 20 straight contests without a long ball before Saturday, batting a meager .191 with zero RBI during that span. Fermin has been splitting time with Luis Campusano behind the plate -- each player has started four of San Diego's past eight games.

Padres' Freddy Fermin: Getting passed over by Campusano
Fermin is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Atlanta.
Fermin started the first game of the series at catcher, but it's been Luis Campusano behind the dish the last two days. With just two starts to Campusano's four since returning from the injured list, Fermin looks to have been passed on the Padres' catching depth chart.

Padres' Freddy Fermin: Lands on IL
The Padres placed Fermin on the 10-day injured list Friday with a head bruise, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
It appears Fermin avoided a concussion after taking a foul tip off his mask Thursday, but he will ultimately still have to spend time on the IL, and the timing of the injury means he will be on the shelf through the All-Star break. Luis Campusano (toe) was reinstated from the injured list in a corresponding move and will presumably split reps behind the plate with Rodolfo Duran for the remainder of the first half.

Since he was activated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday, Fermin has started twice behind the plate while Rodolfo Duran has caught the other three games.
