Casali is out of the lineup Sunday against the Yankees, Bill Chastain of MLB.com reports.
With only three starts under his belt since the All-Star break, it appears Casali has officially been passed up by Luke Maile on the catching depth chart. Maile is only sitting on a .194/.242/.258 batting line over 34 plate appearances, but the Rays appear inclined to give him an extended trial at the starting role after Casali failed to provide noticeably better production in a much larger sample of at-bats earlier this season.
