Stallings exited Friday's game against Atlanta with left ankle soreness, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings went 0-for-2 with a strikeout before departing. Nick Fortes has taken over behind the plate. For now, Stallings should be considered day-to-day, but it's likely Miami will have the backstop undergo further testing before determining how long he'll be out of action.

Stallings went 1-for-3 with an RBI in Sunday's win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
His fourth-inning sacrifice fly helped the Marlins come back from an early 5-1 deficit. Stallings has split the workload behind the plate with Nick Fortes this season, seeing 99 plate appearances to Fortes' 125, but it's his glove that keeps him in the mix, not his bat. Stallings is slashing a putrid .161/.227/.218 with zero homers, seven runs and eight RBI.

Stallings is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Now on the bench for the fourth time in six games and the sixth time in the past nine contests, Stallings appears to have slipped to No. 2 on the depth chart at catcher behind Nick Fortes. Though he continues to grade out adequately on the defensive end, Stallings has become an even greater liability with the bat, as he enters Sunday's contest with a lowly .136/.224/.205 slash line and career-worst 28.6 percent strikeout rate over 49 plate appearances.

Stallings is not in the starting lineup Friday versus the Cubs, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stallings will take a seat as the Marlins elect to have Nick Fortes catch for Jesus Luzardo, who's on the mound Friday. Stallings has gone 0-for-10 over his last three starts, so he'll hope the day off will help him get right from the plate.

Stallings (back) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
He'll check back in behind the dish after he was sidelined for the Marlins' previous four contests due to a back issue. Thanks to his defensive acumen, Stallings still appears to be the Marlins' nominal No. 1 catcher, though Nick Fortes should play more frequently than most backup backstops.
