Perez was diagnosed with a quadriceps contusion and will undergo a precautionary MRI later Saturday, Josh Vernier of 610 Sports Radio reports.

Perez was involved in a scary collision with Chelsor Cuthbert in foul territory Saturday and had to be helped off the field. Fortunately, the Royals believe that Perez avoided any structural damage and only suffered a contusion in his quadriceps. However, MLB.com's Jeffrey Flanagan reports that Perez's injury could result in a DL stint. Regardless, Drew Butera figures to take over catching duties while Perez is sidelined.
