Luis Campusano was optioned by the Padres, a decision that allowed veteran catcher Elias Díaz to receive more playing time as the postseason approaches. This move to send Campusano down creates less competition for innings behind the plate, enabling Díaz to perform under reduced pressure.

Luis Campusano was optioned to Triple-A El Paso due to a lack of playing time in the majors. Once the opening day catcher for the Padres, he found himself behind Kyle Higashioka and Elias Díaz on the depth chart.

Luis Campusano replaced Kyle Higashioka in the lineup after Higashioka was sidelined by flu-like symptoms. Despite a slow start this month with a .461 OPS in 12 games, Campusano is stepping into a crucial role as the Padres aim to maintain momentum after a significant win against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Luis Campusano has primarily split catching duties with Kyle Higashioka, making 68 appearances this season. He is one of three players to occupy the catcher position, contributing to the Padres’ consistent lineup and overall depth behind the plate.
