Dingler will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Giants.

Dingler will pick up a second straight start and could see the larger portion of the work behind the plate while fellow backstop Jake Rogers has fallen into a skid at the plate over his last seven contests (1-for-23, 11 strikeouts). Though he hasn't been especially productive in his own right since getting called up on July 29 (.150 average, .477 OPS through 22 plate appearances), Dingler turned in a .938 OPS over a larger sample of 71 games at Triple-A Toledo and would seem to bring more upside to the table.
