The San Diego Padres feel good about starting pitcher Dinelson Lamet (elbow), who missed the playoffs last year because of an elbow/biceps injury.

Malik Beasley Not In Starting Lineup
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley will come off the bench on Wednesday against the Pacers as punishment for being late to the team's walkthrough.
