Luis Campusano's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano has been optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday. The Padres were carrying three catchers with Elias Diaz and Kyle Higashioka also on the roster. Campusano was the odd man out which isn't shocking given his performance this season. He's hitting .227 with eight home runs and 40 RBI in 91 games. At one point, Campusano was viewed as the catcher of the future in San Diego. It's uncertain if that's still the case, but for now fantasy managers can go ahead and move on from him.

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Dodgers. It was the third multi-hit performance in his last four games, going 6-for-15 (.400) over that span with three runs scored and four RBI. The 25-year-old is now slashing .241/.284/.390 on the season with a .293 wOBA and 93 wRC+. Despite the hot stretch, as the backup to Kyle Higashioka, the former second-round pick can be left on the waiver wire.

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano is starting behind the dish on Saturday afternoon and is batting eighth. The 25-year-old recently returned from the 10-day injured list on Friday, July 3, but has begun to lose playing time to Kyle Higashioka. Campusano has made only two starts since returning, as Higashioka has carried a stellar .325/.372/.800 line with 6 long balls and 17 RBI in his past 12 games. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to the San Diego lineup going forward, as both could enter a timeshare in the second half of the summer. Campusano should be faded in DFS this afternoon as he will face Atlanta right-hander Reynaldo Lopez, who carries an excellent 1.71 ERA.
