Perez isn't in the lineup Sunday against the Rangers, Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis:
Perez's offensive slide continued Saturday, as he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout to drop his season average to .148. Backup catcher Geovany Soto went 2-for-4 and hit his second homer of the season on Friday night, so he'll be given the opportunity to make his second start in three games. If Soto continues to sport a hot bat, he could end up displacing Perez as the team's primary backstop.
