The slumping Philadelphia Phillies are placing catcher J.T. Realmuto on the 10-day injured list with a lower-back injury, The Athletic reported Wednesday.

Realmuto, 35, sat out two games before returning Tuesday and going 0-for-4 in a 7-4 road loss to the Chicago Cubs, Philadelphia’s seventh straight defeat.

The three-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove backstop is batting .259 with one home run and four RBIs through 17 games this season.

The Phillies are expected to call up catcher Garrett Stubbs from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to split time behind the plate with Rafael Marchan, per the report.

Realmuto is a lifetime .270 hitter with 181 homers and 681 RBIs in 1,390 career games with the Miami Marlins (2014-18) and Phillies (2019-26).
