Ona was released by the Padres on Dec. 18.

EDGE Analysis

Ona slashed just .218/.301/.391 over 35 games for Double-A San Antonio in 2023 and didn't play after mid-June due to an undisclosed injury. He'll turn 27 next week and last appeared in the majors in 2020.

Ona (elbow) has appeared in three games this season for Double-A San Antonio, going 2-for-12 with two walks and an RBI.

EDGE Analysis

San Diego outrighted Ona off its 40-man roster in November, after he was sidelined for most of the 2021 campaign while he recovered from surgery to remove a bone spur in his right elbow. He incurred a setback during his rehab assignment at Double-A late in the season, but the 25-year-old outfielder looks to be healthy for the start of the 2022 campaign.

Ona (elbow) was outrighted to Triple-A El Paso on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ona missed most of the 2021 campaign after he underwent elbow surgery, but he began a rehab assignment late in the year. His removal from the 40-man roster will clear room for several prospects whose contracts were selected ahead of the Rule 5 draft.

The Padres transferred Ona's rehab assignment to Double-A San Antonio on Saturday. He went 1-for-4 with an RBI double in his San Antonio debut.

EDGE Analysis

Ona was cleared to make a jump in difficultly on his rehab assignment after he went 1-for-9 with a double and an RBI in his three games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. The Padres will presumably keep the 24-year-old on assignment for close to the entire 20-day rehab window before reinstating him from the 60-day injured list and then likely optioning him to San Antonio or Triple-A El Paso.

Ona (elbow) began a rehab assignment Aug. 12 with the Padres' Arizona Complex League affiliate and has gone 1-for-9 with a double, a walk, two runs and an RBI through three games.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old outfielder has been sidelined all season after requiring a procedure in May to remove a bone spur from his right elbow. More than three months later, Ona finally looks to be healthy again, but he'll essentially need to go through a de facto spring training before the Padres reinstate from the 60-day injured list. The San Diego outfield was already overflowing with talent even before shortstop Fernando Tatis converted to right field, so Ona will presumably be optioned to the minors once his rehab assignment concludes.

Ona (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old was already on the shelf when he underwent surgery to remove a bone spur from his right elbow Tuesday, and the move to the 60-day IL won't affect his potential return timeline since he's been ruled out 6-to-8 weeks. Ona could be back in mid-June if he hits the front end of the recovery timetable.

Ona (elbow) underwent arthroscopic surgery to remove a bone spur from his right elbow Tuesday, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ona has been sidelined since the start of the regular season due to right elbow inflammation, and he'll be sidelined approximately 6-to-8 more weeks following his surgery. Once Ona is cleared to return, it's not yet clear whether he'll report to the major-league club or Triple-A El Paso.

Ona was placed on the 10-day injured list with right elbow inflammation Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Ona will begin the 2021 season in the minors after he hit .105 with one home run, two RBI and 11 strikeouts in 11 spring games this year. However, he's now dealing with an elbow issue that will keep him sidelined early in the year. The severity of Ona's injury isn't yet clear, and the Padres haven't announced a timetable for his return.

Ona was optioned to the Padres' alternate training site Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ona was initially slated to start Friday's contest against the Mariners, but he was scratched from the lineup and sent down after Tommy Pham (hand) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. During his time with the major-league club, Ona went 3-for-12 with a home run, two RBI and seven strikeouts while appearing in five games.

Ona went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Thursday's win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Ona hit the first MLB hit of his career with a solo homer against Drew Smyly in the fourth inning. The rookie, who was serving as designated hitter, was recalled Monday to fill in for Luis Campusano (wrist). The 23-year-old was a powerhouse at the Triple-A level last year, slugging .348/.417/.539 with five home runs and 18 RBI across 25 games.
