Heads to injured list Casali was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left wrist strain, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact The catcher isn't expected to miss much time, if any beyond the minimum 10 days. Though a solid defensive asset, Casali has struggled considerably at the plate with a .104 average this season and may benefit from some time off. Chadwick Tromp was recalled to fill Casali's roster spot for the time being.

Starts for resting Posey Casali will start at catcher and bat seventh Sunday against the Dodgers, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Casali will get his third turn behind the plate in less than a week with Buster Posey getting Sunday off for maintenance purposes. For the season, Casali is slashing .107/.265/.125 across 68 plate appearances, so he likely won't be in store for an uptick in playing time while Posey remains healthy.

Plates two runs in win Casali went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Thursday's win over the Marlins.
Impact Casali made the most of his lone knock of the contest, plating Evan Longoria and Darin Ruf to make it a 3-0 game for the Giants in the first inning. He went silent the rest of the way, but he made his presence felt in this one. That said, Casali has recorded just three hits in 24 at-bats this season, and he can't be counted on to produce offensively on a steady basis.
