First homer since IL stint Merrill went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored during Sunday's 8-1 win over the Rockies.

Impact The Padres reinstated Merrill from the 10-day injured list Monday and the center fielder went 1-for-13 with four strikeouts in his first five games.

The long ball was Merrill's 10th in 406 plate appearances this season, which falls well short of his 2024 pace of 24 home runs in 593 plate appearances.

Padres reinstate center fielder Jackson Merrill from his 3rd stint on the injured list

The San Diego Padres reinstated center fielder Jackson Merrill from the 10-day injured list and recalled right-hander Sean Reynolds from Triple-A El Paso

SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 • Associated Press

Activated, not starting Monday The Padres activated Merrill (ankle) from the 10-day injured list, but he'll remain out of the lineup for Monday's series opener versus the Orioles.

Impact Merrill missed the past two weeks of action with a left ankle sprain, but he will bypass a rehab assignment and go directly back onto the Padres' active roster. Ramon Laureano has been filling in in center field in Merrill's absence, but once Merrill rejoins the lineup, Laureano will likely shift to left field, and Gavin Sheets will presumably move into more of a part-time role.
