Phillies' Garrett Stubbs: Set to lose playing time
Garrett Stubbs is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.He'll be on the bench for the fourth straight game and is likely to see scant playing time down the stretch after J.T. Realmuto returned to action Friday following a week-long absence. Stubbs will at least stick around as the top backup to Realmuto after the Philadelphia Phillies designated No. 3 backstop Aramis Garcia for assignment Sunday.

Phillies' Garrett Stubbs: Back in lineup Sunday
Garrett Stubbs will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against Atlanta.After sitting out in three of the past four games, Stubbs is back behind the dish for the series finale in Atlanta. In two of those three games that the lefty-hitting Stubbs didn't start, the Philadelphia Phillies opposed left-handed pitchers, so Stubbs would still seem to have a hold on the larger portion of a timeshare at catcher with the switch-hitting Rafael Marchan. Both backstops will see their opportunities decline once J.T. Realmuto (knee) returns from the injured list.

Realmuto (knee) was sidelined, hitting safely in nine of his last 10 games and batting .278 (10-for-36) over that stretch. The RBI was his first since June 2, however.
