Fernando Tatis Jr. - Takes seat amid slump Tatis is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.
Impact Tatis started the past 49 games but will receive Sunday off while in the midst of a 2-for-24 slump. Jurickson Profar will start in right field and bat second Sunday.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Manny Machado - Receives rare day off Machado is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.
Impact Machado started all 87 games since he returned from a fracture in his left hand in early June, though he's exclusively served as San Diego's designated hitter in September while managing tennis elbow. Matt Carpenter will take over the DH spot Sunday while Eguy Rosario starts at the hot corner.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Waldron - Joining rotation Sunday Waldron is listed as the Padres' probable starting pitcher for Sunday's game in Houston.
Impact At least for one turn through the rotation, the Padres will turn to Waldron to replace Rich Hill, who could be moved to the bullpen after delivering a 10.71 ERA and 1.97 WHIP across 19.1 innings over his first six outings since joining San Diego at the trade deadline. Since being called up from Triple-A El Paso on Aug. 28, Waldron has made two extended relief appearances, working five innings on Aug. 31 and 4.2 innings this past Monday. He stretched out to 88 pitches in his most recent outing, so Waldron should be able to provide the Padres with plenty of length as he moves into the rotation Sunday.

Matthew Batten - Nabs first career steal Batten went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run, an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's loss to the Astros.
Impact Batten walked, stole second and scored in the fourth inning and added a run-scoring single in the sixth. The theft was his first in the majors, though he swiped 27 bags in 31 attempts over 86 games at the Triple-A level this season. Batten has been getting near-everyday playing time since his latest call-up Aug. 26, and he's holding his own with a .286/.390/.457 slash line, one homer, four RBI, nine runs and a 6:7 BB:K over 11 games since that time.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Xander Bogaerts - Ties career-high mark in steals Bogaerts went 1-for-5 with a double and a stolen base in a loss to Houston on Saturday.
Impact Bogaerts put himself in position to score with a double and steal in the second inning, but the Padres stranded him at third. The theft was his 15th of the campaign, tying his career-best mark established in 2017 with Boston. Bogaerts' double also extended his hitting streak to eight games, during which he is slashing .469/.500/.813 with two homers, four RBI, 10 runs and two steals.

Jurickson Profar - Leads offense in loss Profar went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double Saturday in a loss to the Astros.
Impact Profar signed a minor-league contract to return to the Padres organization Sept. 1 and got called up to the big club Friday. He made the start at first base one day later and gave the Padres their first lead in the fourth inning with his two-run blast to right field. He ended the contest as one of two San Diego players with multiple hits, though his contributions weren't enough to carry the team to a win. Profar could be in the mix to get starts at first base down the stretch -- Garrett Cooper and Matt Carpenter have been splitting time there of late with Jake Cronenworth (wrist) and Ji-Man Choi (ankle) potentially out for the season.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Seth Lugo - Hit hard by Astros Lugo (6-7) took the loss against Houston on Saturday, allowing six runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out two batters over 4.1 innings.
Impact Lugo surrendered just one long ball in the outing -- a third-inning solo shot by Yordan Alvarez -- but Houston racked up three doubles among their seven hits against him. Two of the two-baggers came in the fifth frame, resulting in three of the five runs the Astros piled on in that inning. Lugo had been on a roll coming into Saturday, allowing just two earned runs while posting a 23:6 K:BB over 24 frames covering his past four starts. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, tentatively slated to come in Oakland late next week.

Garrett Cooper - Absent from lineup Saturday Cooper isn't in the Padres' lineup Saturday against Houston.
Impact Cooper is slashing just .237/.281/.405 against right-handers this season, and he'll ride the bench Saturday against righty Cristian Javier. Jurickson Profar will draw the start at first base instead and bat seventh.

Juan Soto - Notches eighth steal Soto went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 11-2 win over the Astros.
Impact Soto began September with home runs in three straight games, but he's gone just 2-for-14 over his last four contests, though he's added two steals in that span. The outfielder's last multi-hit effort came Aug. 30, and he's hit just .214 since the start of August. For the season, he's at a .258/.398/.485 slash line with 28 homers, 85 RBI, 77 runs scored and eight thefts over 142 contests.
