San Diego Padres

The San Diego Padres held on to beat the Colorado Rockies, 13-9, on Friday as they improved to 24-13 in a game that felt a lot closer than the final score may read.

Ahead of the victory, the Padres made a deal to acquire a relief pitcher while parting ways with an outfielder, as he heads to Cincinnati. The right-hander doesn't have experience after Double-A, but could very well make his MLB debut in a Padres uniform if he keeps progressing.

It wasn't the only move that San Diego made to their roster as the team made a massive roster move earlier in the day, bringing back an All-Star. The reinstated infielder brought in a run during his long-awaited return to the diamond.

Finally, in more All-Star news, Yu Darvish has taken a 'substantial step' in his return to the mound. It appears that the veteran ace is close to making his first rehab start of 2025.
