Elias Diaz News: On bench again Wednesday

Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Diaz will take a seat for the second night in a row due to Martin Maldonado receiving another start behind the dish. Maldonado has gone 3-for-29 at the plate over his last 12 contests, so he doesn't yet seem to have mounted a serious case for supplanting Diaz as the Padres' preferred backstop.
