Latest news and updates about the Padres
Randy Vasquez had his first misstep of Spring Training in the San Diego Padres 4-1 loss to the Texas Rangers at the Peoria Sports Complex on Monday. He allowed two runs on three hits, walked two and had two strikeouts over four innings. That may not sound great, but when you consider how Texas was […]

Texas Rangers lineup for March 9, 2026 against the San Diego Padres. Texas plays at the Padres this afternoon, though it isn’t a full-blown “away game spring lineup” from Texas, even though Trey Supak is starting on the mound. The lineup: Nimmo — RF Pederson — 1B McCutchen — DH Carter — CF Haggerty — […]
A surprise pitcher of the spring so far hasn’t been any of the known starters, or even a member of the Padres dominant bullpen. Left-handed starter Jackson Wolf, who pitched for El Paso and San Antonio in 2025 with a combined ERA of 5.04, has appeared in five games and seven innings pitched with a […]
The Cincinnati Reds embark upon split-squad action on Sunday afternoon in the Land of the Endless Strip Mall, taking on the Arizona Diamondbacks at home in their Goodyear complex while also fencing with the San Diego Padres at their home at the Peoria Sports Complex. Both games, believe it or not, are going to have […]

At the outset of the offseason the San Diego Padres offense was (for better or worse) set. It already included perennial superstars Fernando Tatis Jr., Manny Machado and Jackson Merrill alongside solid contributors like Freddy Fermin and Ramón Laureano. But, with the departure of everyday first baseman Luis Arráez in free agency to the division-rival […]
It was a rough day for San Diego Padres pitchers in Goodyear, Ariz. on Saturday. The Padres were on the road to face the Cleveland Guardians with one of their top pitchers on the mound in Michael King. It was only King’s second start of Spring Training and after a diving attempt by center fielder […]
The midway point through Spring Training brings a little more clarity to the roster competitions going on in camp for the San Diego Padres with almost three weeks to go. The scores of the games don’t matter; the games often include minor league players that will never see a major league roster. Even the performances […]

The players in competition for the final spot in the rotation are not going to make the decision easy on the San Diego Padres front office and manager Craig Stammen. German Marquez started the game against the Chicago Cubs for the Padres, who won the game 3-0, and he completed three innings without allowing a […]
Cubs catcher Moisés Ballesteros made three ABS challenges in Friday night’s 3-0 Cubs loss to the Padres, and got all of them right. As you know, Ballesteros has previously been known as a catcher who’s probably better off as a DH. It appears, to me at least, that being good at ABS challenges is a […]
Ben Brown didn’t exactly put his best foot forward, allowing three runs in 2.1 innings against the Padres. He was a little wild. The Cubs had those special bats with ball-avoidance radar. One run would have been enough to defeat them. *means autoplay on, (directions to remove for Firefox and Chrome). {$} means paywall. {$} means limited views. Italics are […]

Hello friends and happy Friday! The Mariners took a generational spring training drubbing at the hands of the Padres yesterday, losing 27-6. It’s a bad day to be a reliever on the fringes of the big league roster. Are there any high-scoring games in either spring training or the regular season that you most fondly […]
Walker Buehler made his first start as a member of the San Diego Padres organization against the Seattle Mariners at the Peoria Sports Complex on Thursday. That was supposed to be the lead story of the game as Buehler, JP Sears and Triston McKenzie, who are all battling for the final spot in the San […]
If you missed today’s Mariners spring training game, well, that might have been for the best. This one got out of hand early when the Padres put up an twelve-spot in the second and didn’t improve from there. Of all the spring training games, this one was the spring trainingiest (so far). Luis Castillo got […]
