Padres Place Xander Bogaerts on Paternity List
The San Diego Padres announced on Tuesday that they placed infielder Xander Bogaerts on the paternity list and recalled infielder Will Wagner from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move. Bogaerts will likely miss the final two games of the series at Petco Park this week against the Cincinnati Reds, but he could be back with the club for Friday's series opener in Baltimore versus the Orioles. With the veteran shortstop out for a few days, expect Sung-Mun Song to shift over to the 6 for the Friars. In his 14th year in the big leagues and fourth with San Diego, Bogaerts is slashing .231/.303/.356 with a career-low .658 OPS, eight home runs, 27 RBI, nine stolen bases, and 27 runs scored in 63 games across 251 plate appearances. Although he does have hits in each of his last two games, he's been ice-cold so far in June, going 3-for-23 (.130) with a double, an RBI, two runs scored, two walks, and eight strikeouts in seven games played. Bogey is rostered in just under half of Yahoo leagues.
