Cameron Maybin (wrist) appeared as a pinch-runner in Sunday's win over the Rockies. This confirms that Maybin is on the verge of returning to the lineup after missing eight straight starts. He stole his 33rd base and scored a run before taking over in center field. We'd be surprised if Maybin wasn't in Monday's lineup.

Cameron Maybin (wrist) is out of the lineup for the eighth straight game Sunday. Maybin was reportedly close to playing Saturday, so it's a surprise he's not in the lineup Sunday. The good news is that he's feeling much better and should be back in there Monday against the Giants.

Cameron Maybin (wrist) could return to the lineup Sunday. Maybin took batting practice Saturday without any issues, but Padres manager Bud Black decided to hold the outfielder out for a seventh straight start. He's been dealing with inflammation in his right wrist.

Cameron Maybin returned to action on Friday September 2.

Padres manager Bud Black said he thinks Cameron Maybin (wrist) has "turned the corner." "We think Cam's turned the corner," Black said. "He's much more confident this is healing." Maybin has been dealing with inflammation in his right wrist for a while now and hasn't played in a week since aggravating the ailment. He has no structural damage, though, and it sounds like he should be back before long.

Cameron Maybin will return to San Diego on Tuesday to undergo an MRI on his right wrist.

Cameron Maybin (wrist) is not in the lineup Sunday for the second straight day. The Padres don't appear concerned about Maybin's sore right wrist at this point, so we're not, either. But, if he's not in the lineup again on Monday in L.A., it might be time to start worrying.

Cameron Maybin was held out of Saturday's lineup against the Diamondbacks with a sore right wrist. The Padres are not considering it a major injury. Maybin should be ready to rock on Sunday afternoon.
