Padres' Kannon Kemp: Making return to High-A lineup
Rotowire
High-A Fort Wayne reinstated Kemp (oblique) from its 60-day injured list Tuesday.
Kemp is finally ready to make his High-A debut after a left oblique injury suffered in the spring shelved him to begin the season. He was activated after allowing six runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out four over 5.2 innings across three rehab starts in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Single-A Fort Wayne placed Kemp on the 60-day injured list April 22 with a left oblique injury, J.J. Cooper of Baseball America reports.
He suffered the injury right before he was set to make his first start of the year for the TinCaps. Kemp, 21, logged a 5.52 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 64 strikeouts in 77.2 innings in the lower levels last year.

Padres' Kannon Kemp: Makes pro debut
Rotowire
Kemp (shoulder) has made two starts in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League this season, covering nine innings in total while allowing seven earned runs on seven hits and five walks while striking out five.
An eighth-round selection out of high school in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, Kemp didn't pitch that season or last due to a right shoulder injury. Kemp received a clean bill of health prior to the start of the Complex League season, but the young righty has struggled to display much control early on. In addition to walking 12.8 percent of the batters he's faced, Kemp has hit two batters and thrown three wild pitches.
