New DH hits first home run with Padres; Ryan Weathers overcomes some wildness
Left-hander Ryan Weathers overcame some fastball command trouble to get through three innings on 37 pitches. He allowed an unearned run on one hit and two walks and struck out three. Weathers is ostensibly a candidate to be in the rotation but would also be valuable covering multiple innings out of the bullpen. … Dinelson Lamet was not nearly as sharp as he was in his first Cactus League game, allowing a home run and a double in the fourth inning. ...
… Emilio Pagàn allowed his first baserunners of the spring, on a walk and a double, while pitching his third scoreless inning. … Kevin Kopps, the team’s third-round pick in 2021, also worked a third scoreless inning.Third baseman Manny Machado was scratched from the lineup due to back tightness. Manager Bob Melvin said the injury “was more a sleeping thing” and “not something he did on the field.” Melvin said Machado could be back playing as early as Sunday.
