Torres will be one of several pitchers competing for one of the Padres' remaining bullpen spots this spring, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old lefty played across five levels in 2016, but the majority of his work came at the High-A and Double-A levels where he finished with a collective 2.21 ERA and 9.0 K/9 over 61.2 innings. Torres will have to earn his spot in the bullpen with a strong spring, but the fact that he is a southpaw and is already on the 40-man roster bode well for his chances at making the cut.
