Yimi Garcia is going to join the #BlueJays briefly in Toronto, then pitch in Triple-A Buffalo Wednesday.

He's led the league in bullpen sessions and rehab appearances, but finally sounds like he's close. Big add if they can bottle up a few months of good, healthy Garcia.

Addison Barger continues to ramp up his hitting in Dunedin and “is making progress,” said Schneider.

Daulton Varsho hit “with some pretty good intensity” off the pitching machine today and he’s feeling better but still feels the soreness in his wrist. He’s reaching the point…

Alejandro Kirk’s rehab assignment moves to triple-A Buffalo tomorrow, said John Schneider.

He’ll DH the first day, catch the next two days and could, in the best-case scenario, be back as soon as Friday, the manager added.

You can argue that no team’s long-term future looks as bad as the Padres. A lot of contracts that won’t age well, cleared out the minor-league system.

Almost forced to keep buying at this point, but trying to flip Miller right now would make a lot of sense. https://t.co/BlJwwov8Wv
