Luis Torrens News: Filling in for Alvarez

Torrens will start at catcher and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

The 29-year-old will get his third start behind the plate in four games, but he'll see his playing time dip once Francisco Alvarez (personal) returns from the paternity list, likely no later than Friday. Torrens has been productive enough when called upon this season, slashing .241/.328/.370 with a home run and 13 RBI over 122 plate appearances.
