Cameron Maybin (Achilles) is not in the Padres' lineup Wednesday.
It's the second straight game he's missed with soreness in his left Achilles. The Padres don't seem too concerned about it, so Maybin should be considered day-to-day.

Cameron Maybin is not in the Padres' lineup Tuesday due to soreness in his left Achilles.
Maybin has dealt with the soreness lately and had to leave Sunday's game because of it. It doesn't sound like more than a day-to-day thing, though. "It's doing OK, it's still a little sore," said manager Bud Black. "We spoke today about if starting today's game would be beneficial. We decided that getting off the Achilles was a good idea. We hope the pain subsides a little."

Cameron Maybin went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer and three runs scored as the Padres topped the Cardinals 11-3 on Monday night.
The homer was Maybin's first since Aug. 2, as a wrist injury has robbed him of his power. Still, he's raised his average from .213 a month ago to .245 now. He's had two four-hit games and three three-hit games since Aug. 19.

Cameron Maybin had a nice night at the plate in Friday's 5-4 victory over the Rockies, going 3-for-4 with a double, run scored and stolen base.
It's been a disappointing season for the 25-year-old outfielder, hitting just .234/.306/.333 with six homers and 39 RBI. He has managed to swipe 25 bases though, which drives his fantasy value and makes him still a very useful asset in most fantasy formats.

Cameron Maybin went 4-for-4 with a walk and a steal against the Pirates on Tuesday.
Maybin has 10 hits in three days, taking his average from .211 to .230. All of those hits have been singles -- with his wrist problems, his power stroke just isn't there right now -- but he's making adjustments that could pay off in the long run.

Cameron Maybin went 4-for-5 with three RBI and his 21st stolen base in Sunday's win over the Giants.
All four hits were singles for Maybin, who was just 9-for-51 (.176) in August coming into this afternoon. Astonishingly, he's had only four multi-hit games since the All-Star break. The 21 swipes are a decent silver lining for his fantasy owners, but Maybin won't approach the 40 bags he swiped in 2011.
