Lloyd was designated for assignment by the Padres on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Lloyd was removed from the 40-man roster in order to make room for the recently-acquired Colten Brewer. During the 2017 season, Lloyd started one game for San Diego -- his lone appearance with the big-league team -- and spent a majority of the year between Triple-A El Paso and the Padres' Double-A affiliate.

Lloyd was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Lloyd made his major-league debut Tuesday, but after lasting just four innings in his inaugural start and Travis Wood arriving with the team, he'll head back to the minors to develop further. Reliever Kyle McGrath will take his place on the active roster.

Lloyd gave up four runs on six hits and a pair of walks over four innings in his MLB debut Tuesday against the Mets. He struck out two and didn't factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
After experiencing success in Double-A this year (3.71 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 89 strikeouts in 89.2 innings), Lloyd got promoted to Triple-A, where he's struggled to a 5.65 ERA in five starts, but the Padres apparently felt they had need of him after shipping Trevor Cahill off to the Royals the day before. It's unclear whether Lloyd will remain in the rotation, but even if he does, fantasy owners should take a wait-and-see approach.
