Plawecki went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, three RBI and a run Sunday in the Red Sox's 9-8 loss to the Blue Jays.

Though Christian Vazquez is entrenched atop the depth chart at catcher, Plawecki's hot bat could allow him to earn a larger share of playing time behind the dish, or perhaps more opportunities as a designated hitter versus left-handed pitching. In 12 second-half games thus far, Plawecki has gone 14-for-32 (.438 average) with three doubles and a 3:4 BB:K.
