Heading to bench Sunday
Narvaez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Análise
Narvaez started five of the previous six games, but he went 0-for-12 with a walk during that span to bring his season-long slash line down to .165/.241/.236 over 242 plate appearances. The Orioles will likely have Samuel Basallo split time between catcher and designated hitter down the stretch, so Narvaez is headed for a reduction in playing time after initially being the top option behind the plate following the Adley Rutschman trade.

Fourth straight start
Narvaez will start at catcher and bat ninth in Thursday's game versus the Yankees.
Análise
Samuel Basallo returned from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, but he's made one start at first base and one at designated hitter, allowing Narvaez to make a fourth consecutive start Thursday. Since Basallo is coming back from a right shoulder injury, the Orioles could be easing him back into catching duties. Narvaez is just 3-for-35 at the plate since joining Baltimore and has a .489 OPS on the season, so he's not a recommended fantasy play even if he does continue seeing regular reps.
