News
	Kyle Freeland allowed five earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out two over 5 1/3 innings in a loss to the Brewers. Chris Schommer Sun, Jul 26th	Triston McKenzie has been reassigned to minor league camp by the San Diego Padres. David Leisering Sat, Mar 21st
	Kyle Freeland allowed four earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out four over six innings in Monday's loss to the Nationals. Chris Schommer Tue, Jul 21st	McKenzie carries a 5.46 ERA across 24 big-league appearances (20 starts) since 2023 into Padres camp as a non-roster invitee, but his arm has shown something new this spring. He gained weight over the offseason and pitched in winter ball for the first time, and his four-seamer is averaging 95.7 mph — up two full mph from last season. McKenzie has never touched 97 mph in a major-league game, but he topped that mark 10 times in his most recent Cactus League outing and peaked at 98.8 mph. He admitted having "no idea" where the extra velocity is coming from. Bruno Mulé Fri, Mar 13th
