San Diego Padres reliever Tom Cosgrove (hamstring) was activated from the 15-day injured list on Saturday. The left-hander has been on the shelf since mid-June because of a strained left hamstring.

Drew Carlton Lands On Injured List

San Diego Padres relief pitcher Drew Carlton (elbow) landed on the 15-day injured list on Saturday. The 27-year-old has appeared in 11 games for the big club in 2023, amassing a 2-1 record and a 4.35 ERA.
