    Padres' Michel Baez: Moves rehab to Double-A

    Michel Baez (elbow) moved his rehab assignment to Double-A San Antonio on Wednesday and struck out five over two scoreless innings. He allowed no hits and walked one in his 36-pitch appearance.Baez, who is on the mend from April 2021 Tommy John surgery, was moved up to San Antonio after he turned in a 1.17 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and 13:2 K:BB in 7.2 innings over four appearances at Single-A Lake Elsinore. Before going under the knife last year, the 26-year-old was being developed as a multi-inning reliever, so he could be tasked with recording more than three outs in his subsequent rehab appearances. Whether Baez joins the San Diego Padres or is optioned to a minor-league affiliate once he's officially activated from the 60-day injured list will likely hinge on his performance over the duration of his rehab assignment.

    Padres' Michel Baez: Begins rehab assignment

    Michel Baez (elbow) made his first rehab appearance with Single-A Lake Elsinore on Saturday, pitching two perfect innings during which he struck out one batter.This was a significant step in Baez's recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent in April of 2021. The right-handed reliever has been hitting 96-97 mph with his fastball, per freelance baseball journalist Francys Romero, and it appears possible that he could return to the big club earlier than originally expected. Baez posted a 3.03 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 28:14 K:BB across 29.2 innings in 2019 but spent most of 2020 at the San Diego Padres' alternate camp before suffering a torn UCL in his right elbow during spring training last season.
