Padres' Carl Edwards: Gets call to big leagues
The San Diego Padres selected Carl Edwards' contract from Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.Edwards has worked exclusively as a reliever over parts of nine seasons in the big leagues, but he's been operating as a starter since catching on with the Padres in July on a minor-league deal. Over his four starts with El Paso, Edwards compiled a 4.76 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 18:12 K:BB in 17 innings. Though he could get the chance to make his first MLB start later on in the campaign if injuries test the Padres' rotation depth, Edwards is expected to serve as a long-relief option during his first stint in the majors of 2024.

Padres' Carl Edwards: Latches on with San Diego
The San Diego Padres signed Carl Edwards to a minor-league contract Thursday.Edwards had been with Triple-A Iowa in the Cubs organization before being released last month. Given that he posted a 1.85 ERA over 24.1 innings (albeit with 15 walks), it could have been an opt-out situation. Edwards has already made one appearance with the Padres' Arizona Complex League affiliate, striking out four over 2.1 perfect frames. He should soon be assigned to Triple-A El Paso, where he will provide veteran relief depth.

Cubs' Carl Edwards: Pitching well this spring
Carl Edwards, who tossed a scoreless inning of relief with a strikeout in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Rockies, has a 0.00 ERA across four spring appearances.Edwards last pitched for the Chicago Cubs in 2019, and he was a valuable member of the bullpen for the 2016 World Series winning squad. The righty has bounced around a bit in recent years, but he has a chance to settle into a middle-relief spot with Chicago in 2024. Edwards likely won't have a ton of fantasy value in that role, however.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Moved to 60-day IL
The Washington Nationals transferred Carl Edwards (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.Edwards had been on the 15-day IL since June 21, so his move to the 60-day IL won't affect his timeline for a return but will open up a spot on the 40-man roster for catcher Drew Millas, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Rochester. Though Edwards began a rehab assignment two weeks ago, he made three appearances before suffering a setback with his right shoulder. He's since been diagnosed with a stress fracture, and it's unclear if he'll be able to pitch again at any point in 2023.
