Shifts rehab to Triple-A Myers (knee) had his rehab assignment moved to Triple-A El Paso on Friday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Myers hit .333 (6-for-18) with a pair of home runs in five rehab games with Single-A Lake Elsinore, and he singled in four at-bats in his first game with El Paso on Friday. The veteran outfielder was the designated hitter in all but one of his contests in Single-A, but he played first base for the Chihuahuas in his first game with the Triple-A club. Myers is expected to play with El Paso through the weekend before potentially returning to the Padres next week, per MLB.com.

Hitting progression going well Tatis (wrist) has been hitting in the cage at 95-100 percent, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Tatis has been cleared to swing a bat for only a week, but it appears that he's doing so nearly at full strength. The superstar shortstop indicated that he is feeling "pretty good" and hasn't suffered any setbacks, per AJ Cassavell of MLB.com, though at this point he hasn't progressed beyond taking soft toss. Tatis still has several more steps to complete before he can begin a rehab assignment, so he is likely still weeks away from making his season debut for the Padres.

Staying in bullpen Gore will remain in the Padres' bullpen for now, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Impact Gore shifted to a relief role just before the All-Star break, and the Padres will elect to continue with a five-man rotation for now, likely to limit the workloads of Gore and Nick Martinez. Gore made a relief appearance Sunday against Arizona and allowed two runs on a hit and two walks while striking out one in one-third of an inning.
