Tomoyuki Sugano starts crisply, spotting his fastball and splitter on the corners, but the second time through the order the Padres elevate a few mistakes. Walker Buehler bends early—yielding a leadoff double to Ezequiel Tovar and a Mickey Moniak sacrifice fly in the 1st, then a solo shot by TJ Rumfield in the 2nd—yet he steadies after mixing in more cutters and survives six frames with only three runs allowed. The Rockies’ lineup is top-heavy and fades once the bullpen door opens. After Sugano exits with two outs in the 6th, San Diego cashes in: Nick Castellanos doubles home Jackson Merrill to level the game at 2-2. The decisive blow comes in the 8th when Xander Bogaerts, still riding yesterday’s walk-off grand slam, laces a two-run single off Victor Vodnik, capping a patient, eight-pitch plate appearance. Mason Miller records a six-out save, overpowering Colorado’s swing-happy bottom third (Doyle, Beck, Goodman) with triple-digit heat. Final tally: Padres 4, Rockies 3.

Jose Siri: Grand slam in loss to Rockies

Siri appears early in his Angels tenure with limited plate appearances (0 G on record suggests recent call-up). LAA remains 23-37 with a -51 run differential and faces Colorado's struggling rotation (Lorenzen 7.22 ERA, Freeland 8.08 ERA).

Colorado Rockies

Rockies Select TJ Shook, Option Agnos

Colorado moves roster depth pieces in a 22-38 club that's allowed 334 runs (worst differential at -83). Welinton Herrera's move to 60-day IL suggests a longer absence from a bullpen already stretched thin.

Rockies prospect Ethan Holliday out for season with foot stress fracture

Holliday's loss affects Colorado's farm system depth, though the 20-37 Rockies are already -77 in run differential with starters Lorenzen (7.21 ERA) and Freeland (8.08 ERA) providing minimal foundation for a rebuild.

Rockies Move Quintana to 60-Day IL, Activate Criswell

Quintana's elbow sprain relegates him to long-term absence from a rotation already decimated—Lorenzen (7.21 ERA, 2-7) and Freeland (8.08 ERA) are both struggling, leaving Colorado's pitching at a 4.79 team ERA with a -77 run differential through 57 games. Criswell (3.33 ERA in limited action) provides organizational depth but has zero 2026 IP to evaluate readiness.

Rockies re-sign Brebbia to minor league deal

Brebbia returns after a spring training release, joining a Colorado bullpen that has allowed 306 runs in 57 games (5.37 per game). The move offers depth relief for a last-place NL West team on a five-game losing streak.

Padres Designate Nick Castellanos For Assignment

Castellanos posted a .191 AVG with a .285 xwOBA in limited 2026 action, clearing roster space as San Diego (32-27, -7 run diff) continues losing form with 3-7 over last 10.

Padres Select Jase Bowen

Bowen makes his MLB debut for a 32-26 Padres team that has lost 2 straight and sits 3-7 over its last 10 games. San Diego's roster crunch suggests a likely corresponding move from their active 26-man group.

Nationals drop to .500 after loss to Padres; Griffin faces King today

Washington's run environment remains bizarre—+311 runs scored yet -6 run differential due to 317 allowed, the worst underlying efficiency in baseball. Griffin (3.63 ERA, 1.13 WHIP) matches up against King (2.76 ERA, 1.15 WHIP) in a matchup where San Diego's superior run prevention (220 RA vs WSH's 317) should dominate despite the Nationals' offensive firepower.

Padres exploring trade options for relievers including Senzatela

San Diego (31-20, +9 run diff) already leads the NL West in run differential despite a middle-of-pack rotation; Senzatela has no 2026 appearance data but adding bullpen depth makes sense for a contender while Colorado (20-33, -55 run diff) continues selling.

Antonio Senzatela

San Diego Padres

Padres Shopping For Bullpen Help

San Diego's bullpen ranks among baseball's best, but at +3 run differential the team is actually outscored overall—suggesting offensive/rotation issues are the real problem. Preller's pursuit of upgrades may be misdirected when King (2.31 ERA, 59 SO) and Vásquez (2.68 ERA, 45 SO) are performing at rotation ace levels.
