SAN DIEGO PADRES NEWS

Back on bench after rare start Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Impact Wade will head back to the bench for the Padres' final game before the All-Star break after he picked up his first start since July 4 in Saturday's 4-0 win. While filling in at shortstop for a resting Ha-Seong Kim, Wade went 1-for-2 with a run scored and his seventh stolen base of the season. Wade's playing time will likely remain light moving forward, with most of his opportunities coming as a late-inning defensive replacement or pinch runner.

Getting breather Sunday Arraez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Impact After rapping out three hits in Saturday's 4-0 win to break out of a 1-for-15 funk over his previous four starts, Arraez will head to the bench for the series finale and the final game before the All-Star break. Jurickson Profar will take over as the Padres' leadoff hitter in place of Arraez, who had started in each of the Friars' last 13 contests.

Will throw bullpen July 17 Musgrove (elbow) is slated to throw a bullpen session July 17, per MLB.com.

Impact The bullpen will be Musgrove's first since he went on the injured list with a right elbow issue June 1. The right-hander was diagnosed with a bone spur and a bone bruise shortly thereafter and received both a PRP and a cortisone injection. Musgrove has been playing catch since late June and threw off a mound July 10, though not as part of a full-on bullpen session. He's expected to accompany the Padres on their three-city road trip following the All-Star break and continue to toss bullpens during that time with the aim of gradually increasing intensity. He'll likely need a series of minor-league rehab starts prior to being activated off the 60-day IL, and he probably won't be ready to return to the big-league club's rotation until at least early August.

Fans 11 in Saturday's win Cease (8-8) picked up the win Saturday, allowing only one hit and three walks over six scoreless innings in a 4-0 victory over Atlanta. He struck out 11.

Impact The Padres got on the board with a run in the second inning, and it's all the support Cease and the bullpen would need. The right-hander racked up double-digit Ks for the third time this season en route to his 11th quality start, and Cease produced an impressive 27 swinging strikes among his 106 pitches. He'll head into the All-Star break with a 3.99 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 149:36 K:BB through 115 innings, putting him just one strikeout behind former teammate Garrett Crochet for the major-league lead.

Not starting Saturday Kim is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against Atlanta, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Kim will get a rest amidst a four-game mini-slump during which he's gone 2-for-12 with no walks. Tyler Wade is taking over at shortstop in Kim's stead.

Beginning on bench Saturday Bogaerts isn't in Saturday's starting lineup versus Atlanta, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Bogaerts returned from a lengthy absence Friday, going 2-for-4 while starting at second base. There's no word that he aggravated the shoulder injury that landed him on the IL on May 20, so his absence from the lineup Saturday is presumably part of the plan to ease him back into action. Jake Cronenworth is playing second base in the middle game of the series while Luis Arraez is moving from DH to first base.

Two hits in return Bogaerts went 2-for-4 in Friday's 6-1 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Bogaerts, who was activated from the injured list earlier in the day due to a fractured left shoulder, was the only Padre to put up multiple hits in the contest. It was his first game action since May 20, and he played the full game at second base, which suggests he's healthy enough to handle a starting role. Luis Arraez and Jake Cronenworth are likely to be impacted by Bogaerts' return, though there's room for all three of them in the lineup against right-handers, at the expense of Donovan Solano. Bogaerts is slashing .225/.270/.319 over 204 plate appearances this season, adding four home runs, four stolen bases, 14 RBI and 23 runs scored.

Goes seven innings in loss Waldron (5-8) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one over seven innings to take the loss Friday versus Atlanta.

Impact Waldron has gone at least six innings in eight of his last nine starts, but this was the first time since May 5 he was tagged for four earned runs. He's now on a four-start winless skid, though he hasn't pitched poorly. Waldron is starting to have some trouble with homers -- after giving up two in the fifth inning Friday, he's been tagged for six long balls over his last five starts. The right-hander is still fairly reliable with a 3.71 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 93:31 K:BB through 106.2 innings through 19 starts this season, and struggling against Atlanta's strong lineup isn't overly concerning.
