Padres' Jose Iglesias: Suspended one game by MLB
Jose Iglesias has been suspended one game by Major League Baseball for his actions following Game 3 of the National League Wild Card Series against the Cubs, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.Iglesias was among several San Diego Padres players to voice their displeasure to the umpire crew following their Game 3 loss, but he's the only one to receive a suspension. Much of the angst was over a strike three call on Xander Bogaerts, who received a fine. Barring a successful appeal, Iglesias will serve the suspension on Opening Day next year. The 35-year-old is a pending free agent.

Jose Iglesias went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Monday's 5-4 win over the Brewers.Iglesias cut the San Diego Padres' deficit to one with a solo homer off Freddy Peralta in the fifth inning of a game San Diego went on to win in extras, clinching a postseason berth. The veteran infielder has struggled overall with a .582 OPS in 109 games, but he's been swinging the bat well lately, slashing .308/.438/.538 over his past seven contests. Iglesias has seen increased playing time with Xander Bogaerts (foot) sidelined, though that role is likely to shrink once Bogaerts returns ahead of the playoffs.

Padres' Jose Iglesias: On bench for third straight vs. RHP
Jose Iglesias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.Iglesias will hit the bench while Jake Cronenworth shifts over from shortstop to make his first start at shortstop since the 2022 season. With Xander Bogaerts (foot) out indefinitely, the San Diego Padres could prioritize offense over defense by phasing out Iglesias and leaning more heavily on Cronenworth and Luis Arraez in the middle infield, which would open up a regular spot in the lineup for the hot-hitting Gavin Sheets. Iglesias had already sat out the Padres' previous two matchups against right-handed starters, though San Diego went with Mason McCoy rather than Cronenworth at shortstop in both of those contests.

Padres' Jose Iglesias: Provides rare pop in win
Jose Iglesias went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Giants.Iglesias restored the San Diego Padres' lead at 3-1 when he took Robbie Ray deep in the second inning. This was Iglesias' first homer of the year, and it came with the reserve infielder taking a turn at designated hitter. He's now at a .234/.305/.285 slash line with 27 RBI, 23 runs scored, nine doubles and four stolen bases across 265 plate appearances. He's looking at career-low numbers in nearly every area, and he won't get many chances to add to them as a part-time player in a strong offense.
