Perez went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Monday's 9-5 loss to the Reds.

The catcher, who figures to see steady playing time with Jacob Stallings (concussion) on the injured list, is 2-for-51 with a 6:16 BB:K since Aug. 3. Not surprisingly, he's hitless in two at-bats and has grounded into a double play against Tuesday starter Tyler Mahle. For the season, Perez is slashing .135/.212/.297 with seven homers in 203 plate appearances. Recently-acquired Taylor Davis will serve as the team's backup catcher.
