Perez is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rangers.

Tribe manager Terry Francona is likely just extending Perez a breather after he was behind the plate for the last four games, highlighted by a 4-for-5, three-RBI showing at the dish in Friday's series opener. Chris Gimenez will make the start Sunday, but Perez will continue serving as the Indians' top catcher until Yan Gomes (shoulder) returns from the DL, likely in early September.
