Manaea will make his final Cactus League start Sunday against the Padres, leaving him in play for a possible Opening Day assignment next Friday against the Phillies, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran southpaw has been very effective over his last two spring turns, allowing just two earned runs on three hits and two walks across a combined 10.1 innings over that span. The timing of Manaea's final tune-up appearance would also leave him on normal rest if manager Mark Kotsay opts to go with him over Frankie Montas for the first game of the regular season.
