Luis Campusano's struggles at the plate and behind it have led to his demotion to Triple-A, marking the first optional assignment in two years.
Despite a promising season last year, Campusano's current performance is below replacement level, leading to a disappointing batting average and poor defensive metrics.
With a 16.3% caught-stealing rate, Campusano ranks significantly lower than league average, which has contributed to his team's decision to send him down.
The Padres are now relying on Kyle Higashioka for more playing time, as Campusano's defensive and offensive difficulties have made his starting role unsustainable.
