The San Diego Padres held on to beat the San Francisco Giants, 1-0, in a 10-inning thriller on Monday night. The Friars improved to 34-24 on the season.

Additionally, the San Diego Padres are reportedly interested in upgrading one of their relatively weaker positions in the lineup. A Boston Red Sox outfielder has been linked to the Friars in what would be a blockbuster trade.

Unfortunately, veteran Yu Darvish recently introduced a new wrinkle in his injury saga. The right-hander said that he 'can't talk about it' in what is a 'complicated' ailment.

Finally, Michael King broke his silence on his own pitching injury. The right-hander is serving time on the injured list after a pinched nerve in his shoulder caused him to miss a recent start.
