Campusano (thumb) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday but isn't expected to miss more than the minimum amount of time, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports

Campusano was scratched ahead of Friday's 9-5 win over the Brewers and held out of Saturday's 6-4 win with left thumb soreness before the Padres placed him on the IL. Brett Sullivan was called up from Triple-A El Paso take Campusano's place on the active roster, but Kyle Higashioka should get most of the work behind the plate while Campusano is out.

Campusano (thumb) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Milwaukee.

Campusano was scratched from Friday's lineup with soreness in his left thumb and will remain on the bench to begin Saturday's game. Kyle Higashioka will be behind the plate and bat ninth.

Stephenson (undisclosed) isn't in the Reds' lineup Saturday against the Red Sox.

Manager David Bell said Friday that Stephenson is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury. It's still unclear what the 27-year-old backstop is dealing with, but it's enough to sideline him for a second consecutive game Saturday. While he recovers, Luke Maile will pick up another start behind the plate and bat eighth.

Stubbs isn't in the Phillies' lineup for Saturday's game versus Arizona.

The lefty-hitting Stubbs will take a seat Saturday as the lefty-throwing Tommy Henry starts on the bump for the Diamondbacks. Rafael Marchan will instead start at catcher while batting ninth.

Grandal isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays.

Grandal will take a seat Saturday after going 0-for-1 and drawing two walks during Friday's loss in the series opener. Jason Delay will take over behind the plate and bat ninth.

The Diamondbacks recalled Herrera from Triple-A Reno on Saturday, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

A thumb injury forced Gabriel Moreno onto the 10-day injured list Saturday, so Herrera will join the active roster to give the D-backs some security behind the plate. The 27-year-old backstop has slashed .260/.351/.362 with 19 RBI in 149 plate appearances with Reno this season, and he figures to serve as the backup to Tucker Barnhart while Moreno is out.

The Diamondbacks placed Moreno on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a sprained left thumb, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Moreno's X-rays came back negative after he exited Friday's game due to his injured thumb, but the damage seems to still be severe enough to warrant keeping him out for the next 10 days. While he recovers, Tucker Barnhart will take over as Arizona's primary catcher and Jose Herrera will come up from Triple-A Reno to provide additional depth at catcher.

Milias went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double and a solo home run in Friday's win over the Rockies.

The Nationals took full advantage of a game at Coors Field, and Milias collected two of the team's 10 extra-base hits, including his first long ball of the season in the fourth inning off Dakota Hudson. Milias came into the game just 2-for-19 this year in the majors, and he's started just five of 19 games in June while working behind Keibert Ruiz.

The Cardinals placed Herrera on the 10-day injured list Saturday with lower-back tightness.

Herrera's back issue forced him to miss both of St. Louis' last two games, and the Cardinals will now elect to shut him down for another week. Nick Raposo was selected from Triple-A Memphis to add depth behind the plate, though most starts will likely be given to Pedro Pages.

Amaya isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Amaya will receive a day off Saturday after tallying a base hit in each of his last three games. His absence will allow Tomas Nido to make his first start behind the plate as a Cub.
