Bob Melvin indicates six-man rotation not option until Joe Musgrove returns; Padres offense shows what it can do in mounting comeback
Nick Martinez is expected back in Padres camp Sunday. That’s good, in part because of who isn’t here.
Even the extra pitches Darvish threw in the bullpen after his second appearance and the extra work Martinez has done since his start can’t match game action. “It might be more difficult at this point to go six without Joe,” Melvin said. “And if we have guys like Yu and Nick that might not be able to go out there for five or six , you need some bullpen arms to be able to combat that.”
The leading candidates for two available spots to help Nabil Crismatt provide long relief in Musgrove’s absence are Jay Groome, Brent Honeywell and Julio Teheran.If a game in the middle of spring training can be highly anticipated, this one was. And if a spring training game can vividly illustrate what is possible, this one did.
Giving credence to Machado’s assessment was that the first Padres batter to get a hit was No.9 hitterMachado, who was batting third, led off the third with a home run.After Campusano led off the fifth with a double,drove him home with his second single of the day. Tatis scored on Machado’s double.Among the top five hitters, only Juan Soto was hitless.
“A guy that doesn’t get talked about a ton with the first four is Croney,” Melvin said Saturday morning. “I think Croney is going to have a big year this year.”
