• Marlins' Graham Pauley: Sent to Miami in Scott trade

  07/30/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Marlins acquired Pauley, Robby Snelling, Adam Mazur and Jay Beshears from the Padres on Tuesday in exchange for relievers Tanner Scott and Bryan Hoeing, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports. The 23-year-old saw some action with the Padres early in the season but has spent most of the campaign at the Triple-A level. Pauley went 4-for-32 with 15 strikeouts in his first taste of the majors and has also underwhelmed at Triple-A this year with a .228/.342/.390 slash line. He'll have a clearer path to playing time with the Marlins and could receive another look in the majors before the end of the season.

• Padres' Graham Pauley: Back with big club

  04/20/2024 • By RotoWire

  Pauley is starting at third base and batting ninth in Saturday's contest against the Blue Jays, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports. Pauley started the season in the majors due to Manny Machado being limited to DH duties with an elbow injury. Pauley went 2-for-15 with one home run and three RBI before being optioned to Triple-A El Paso on April 9. He's had better success in the minors, slashing .290/.436/.677 with four home runs and 11 RBI over 39 plate appearances in Triple-A. Pauley will hope to bring some of that production from El Paso to his second big-league stint. The Padres optioned Matthew Batten to make room for Pauley, per Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune.

• Padres' Graham Pauley: Optioned to Triple-A

  04/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Pauley was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday. Pauley has struggled to start the 2024 season, having recorded just two hits in 15 plate appearances. Before being optioned, the third baseman was battling with veteran Tyler Wade for playing time. The 23-year-old made only three starts, but he should have more opportunity for regular at-bats in El Paso. Brett Sullivan was recalled from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move.

• Padres' Graham Pauley: Out of starting lineup

  04/07/2024 • By RotoWire

  Pauley is out of the lineup Sunday against the Giants. Pauley has gotten three starts out of 11 games at third base so far this year but will sit out another amidst some batting struggles as veteran Tyler Wade will get his seventh start of the season. The rookie is currently batting .154 in 13 at bats this year, and he'll likely need to improve in order to see a larger share of the playing time at the hot corner.

• Padres' Graham Pauley: Belts first big-league homer

  03/31/2024 • By RotoWire

  Pauley went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run in Saturday's loss to San Francisco. Pauley opened the game on the bench but entered as a pinch hitter for Fernando Tatis in the eighth inning with San Diego down eight runs. The rookie grounded out in his initial at-bat but got another chance in the following frame and produced a three-run shot to right field for his first long ball as a major-leaguer. Pauley batted .308 and went deep 23 times in the minors last season after being a 13th-round draft pick in 2022, and it will be interesting to see what he can do at the big-league level this year if he can get enough playing time.
