Perez is out of the lineup Sunday against the Orioles, 610 Sports reports.

With the Royals off the schedule Monday, Perez will benefit from an extended rest, marking the first time since April 23 that he hasn't started. Perez hasn't wilted while assuming massive workloads in previous seasons, and with 34 games already under his belt in 2017, he looks poised to again rank as one of baseball's more heavily used catchers. Drew Butera will spell him behind the plate Sunday.
