Padres expect Yu Darvish to resume playing catch in the coming days and maintain the belief he does not have ligament damage.

Cuban star, who practically had a full career before coming to the United States, has impressed Padres in spring.

Jackson Merrill hits his fourth home run of the spring in the penultimate Cactus League game; Logan Gillaspie throws four solid innings.

Those players have been informed they are on the team; five players vying for last spot.

He has put himself in strong place to be considered for a spot in the rotation at the beginning of the season.

Dylan Cease pitches almost gets through six scoreless innings against Reds; Kyle Hart was better than his line sugested; Manny Machado heating up.

Padres stars are two of the best hitters in baseball, and yet a look at their occasional struggles are illustrative of how hard hitting is.

Riht-hander with unique delivery and varied arsenal is on track to make opening-day roster and pitch important innings.
