Padres' Carson Montgomery: Makes 2026 debut
Montgomery (undisclosed) allowed one unearned run on two hits and one walk while striking out three across four innings Thursday against High-A Lansing. He didn't factor into the decision.
Montgomery failed to make an appearance during the 2025 season due to an unspecified injury, but he's since returned to health and looked sharp in his 2026 minor-league debut. He'll aim to continue his development this year with High-A Fort Wayne now that he's back at full strength.

Padres' Bradgley Rodriguez: Continues strong start to season
Rodriguez tossed a scoreless inning against Colorado on Sunday, allowing one hit and striking out two batters.
Rodriguez was deployed in the ninth inning, though it was a relatively low-leverage situation with San Diego up by five runs. The right-hander got the job done, throwing 15 of 19 pitches for strikes while giving up just an infield single. Rodriguez has just one hold (and no saves) through seven appearances, but he's been very effective, allowing only one run while posting a 10:1 K:BB across 9.1 innings.

Padres' Jackson Merrill: Goes deep in win
Merrill went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and one stolen base in Sunday's 7-2 victory over the Rockies.
Merrill put the finishing touch on the Padres' fifth-straight win, blasting a solo homer in the seventh inning to extend the lead to five. It's been a slow start for the center fielder, who is slashing .217/.288/.417 through 16 games to open the 2026 campaign, though he's driven in four runs over his past two games and will look to build on that as he works to hit his stride at the plate.

Padres' Ramon Laureano: Blasts another homer
Laureano went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 7-2 win over Colorado.
Laureano went deep for the second straight game, crushing a middle-middle cutter from Valente Bellozo over the left-field fence to extend San Diego's lead in the sixth inning. Amid a slow start for much of the Padres' lineup, Laureano has been highly productive, slashing .268/.339/.536 with four homers, 10 runs, 11 RBI and three stolen bases through 15 games.

Padres' Manny Machado: Tallies two RBI in win
Machado went 1-for-1 with two RBI and two walks in Sunday's 7-2 win over Colorado.
Machado opened the scoring with a sacrifice fly in the first inning before later delivering an opposite-field single in the fifth frame for his second RBI of the day. After a slow start to the season, the star third baseman has been a run-producing force of late, recording two RBI in each of his past two games and driving in nine runs over his past seven contests.

Padres' Ty France: Trio of hits in win
France went 3-for-3 with a double, a solo home run, two additional runs scored and was hit by a pitch in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Rockies.
France was a difference-maker, reaching base in all four plate appearances, highlighted by his first homer of the campaign in the fourth inning that left the bat at 107.4 mph and traveled 427 feet into the Padres' bullpen. The veteran entered Sunday's contest with just one hit through 12 plate appearances to open the season but is now slashing .286/.375/.571 after his big performance against the Rockies. In his second stint with San Diego, France has primarily been deployed as a platoon bat against left-handed pitching, though Sunday's performance came against right-handers after planned starter Kyle Freeland (shoulder) was a late scratch.

Padres' Nick Pivetta: Dealing with right elbow issue
Pivetta exited Sunday's start versus Colorado in the fourth inning with right elbow stiffness.
Pivetta was cruising through three innings before he was suddenly unable to continue. The 33-year-old's injury was initially unspecified, but it is now understood to be an issue with his pitching elbow. It certainly doesn't sound like a positive outcome for Pivetta, who has now strung together 13 innings of two-run ball while striking out 20 batters in his last three outings. The Padres will likely have the right-hander undergo additional testing in the near future to determine the severity of his elbow issue.

Padres' Nick Pivetta: Exits early Sunday
Pivetta (undisclosed) exited Sunday's contest against the Rockies in the top of the fourth inning, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Pivetta set down the first nine batters he faced in order before signaling to the trainers after firing a 2-1 fastball to Edouard Julien in the top of the fourth inning. The right-hander ultimately exited the contest as a result of an undisclosed injury, finishing his day having tossed three perfect innings while striking out four batters on 46 pitches. More information on his status will likely be provided in the near future.

Padres' Miguel Andujar: Heading to bench Sunday
Andujar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
After occupying the designated hitter spot in the previous two games, Andujar will cede those duties to Nick Castellanos in the series finale. The two players are continuing to form a timeshare at DH, with Andujar (.782 OPS in 40 plate appearances) having thus far outperformed Castellanos (.617 OPS in 34 plate appearances).

Padres' Bryce Johnson: Making third start of the season
Johnson will start in right field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Rockies.
Johnson will crack the lineup for just the third time in the Padres' first 16 games, with two of those starts having come against left-handed pitching. The switch-hitting outfielder is a platoon option for the Padres but won't necessarily be a regular presence in the lineup versus lefties while San Diego has most of its key position players available.

Padres' Jake Cronenworth: Receiving first off day of 2026
Cronenworth is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
Though the left-handed-hitting Cronenworth typically plays against most lefties, he'll take a seat for the first time this season Sunday while Colorado sends southpaw Kyle Freeland to the bump. Fernando Tatis will make a second straight start at second base in place of Cronenworth, who occupied shortstop in Saturday's 9-5 win while Xander Bogaerts received a breather.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Sitting against left-hander
Sheets is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
After starting in each of the Padres' last six games, Sheets will hit the bench along with fellow left-handed hitter Jake Cronenworth while Colorado sends southpaw Kyle Freeland to the bump. Ty France will draw a start at first base in place of Sheets.

Padres' Manny Machado: Belts long ball Saturday
Machado went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run against the Rockies in a 9-5 victory Saturday.
Machado's third-inning, two-run blast pulled the Padres to within a run after Colorado built a big early lead. The star third baseman has struggled to get his bat going, hitting just .193 through 14 games, so he'll look to Saturday's homer to spark a hot streak. Machado does have a 13:12 BB:K this season, and he's managed to get on base at a .367 clip despite the low batting average.

Padres' Ramon Laureano: Crushes big homer Saturday
Laureano went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run, two additional runs, a double and two walks in a 9-5 win against Colorado on Saturday.
Laureano's biggest contribution was a three-run blast in the fourth inning that turned a one-run Padres deficit into a two-run lead. The long ball was his third of the campaign and his first over his past nine contests. Laureano is slashing .269/.333/.500 with nine RBI, eight runs and three stolen base through 14 contests on the campaign.

Padres' Fernando Tatis: Makes first career start at 2B
Tatis started at second base in Saturday's 9-5 win over the Rockies, going 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base.
Tatis' first MLB start at the keystone came out of the blue, though he occasionally fields grounders at second during pregame work and made one MLB appearance tat the position late in a game in 2023. The Padres haven't revealed any plans for the two-time Gold Glove Award-winning outfielder to shift to second base on a more recurring basis, but he looked comfortable at the position Saturday, even turning a double play. Second base is generally regarded as one of the shallower positions in fantasy baseball, so it would be a major boon for Tatis' managers if he can play enough at the keystone to earn eligibility.

Padres' Jason Adam: Records save Saturday
Adam earned a save against the Rockies on Saturday by retiring the only batter he faced.
The Padres took a 9-5 lead into the ninth inning, and Bradgley Rodriguez opened that frame on the mound. However, Rodriguez loaded the bases with two outs, and with Mason Miller having pitched three straight days, manager Craig Stammen turned to Adam for the final out. The righty came through by getting Ezequiel Tovar to pop out to second base. This was Adam's second appearance in as many days since being activated from the injured list Friday. He's faced exactly one batter in each outing and has retired both on nine total pitches.

Padres' German Marquez: Nabs win against former club
Marquez (2-1) earned the win over Colorado on Saturday, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks while striking out five batters over five innings.
Marquez was far from sharp, especially in terms of allowing the long ball -- the Rockies knocked three homers against him. However, he pitched just well enough (and just deep enough) to pick up his second straight victory thanks to a breakout performance by San Diego's offense. Marquez tossed five scoreless frames in his previous start April 6 versus Pittsburgh, but in his other two outings he's allowed a combined eight runs (including five homers) across eight innings. He's projected to next take the mound on the road against the Angels.
