Gore is an option to fill in as a starter for the Padres since Blake Snell (groin) is likely heading to the 10-day injured list, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gore failed to land a spot on the Padres' Opening Day roster in 2022, but he had a strong spring and allowed two hits and no walks while striking out seven in five scoreless innings during his season debut at Triple-A El Paso on Saturday. While manager Bob Melvin hasn't indicated that Gore will fill in as a starter, the southpaw would be available on full rest to make his major-league debut at home against Atlanta on Friday, which was when Snell lined up to make his next start.
