EDGE Analysis
The righty, who entered Wednesday's start with a 7.49 ERA and nine home runs allowed in his last nine outings, turned in arguably his strongest performance of the season, giving the Padres some much-needed length in the first game of the doubleheader. Paddack now has a 5.17 ERA and 84:19 K:BB in 87 innings through 19 games. He's expected to make his next start Tuesday against the Athletics.
