Plawecki is out of the lineup for the second straight game Monday against the Phillies.

Analysis:

Plawecki was able to pinch-hit Sunday, but now has just one hit in his last 13 at-bats and is batting an even .200 on the year. Anthony Recker will start his second consecutive contest Monday, and if he's able to usurp Plawecki for the backup job, the younger backstop could find himself back in the minors when Travis d'Arnaud (hand) returns.
