The Padres placed Gillaspie on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a left oblique strain.

EDGE Analysis

Gillaspie appeared to suffer the injury during the seventh inning of Saturday's loss to the Rays, and he will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. In corresponding moves, David Morgan's contract was selected from Double-A San Antonio and Bryan Hoeing (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day IL.

The Padres selected Gillaspie's contract from Triple-A El Paso prior to Sunday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Before being non-tendered by the Padres in November, Gillaspie made nine appearances at the big-league level in 2024, logging a 7.15 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 11.1 innings. He'll likely be ticketed for a middle-relief role as he heads back to San Diego. The Padres designated left-hander Tom Cosgrove for assignment to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for the 27-year-old Gillaspie.

The Padres signed Gillaspie to a minor-league contract Dec. 12, per his MLB.com player profile.

EDGE Analysis

Gillaspie is a 27-year-old right-hander who began his professional career playing on the independent circuit before getting a look in the Brewers organization in 2018. He's appeared in the majors each of the past three campaigns -- the first two with Baltimore and last season with San Diego -- compiling a 5.02 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB over 37.2 innings covering 37 regular-season appearances (all out of the bullpen). Gillaspie will serve as organizational bullpen depth now that he's back in the Padres' minor-league system.

The Padres non-tendered Gillaspie on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite his strong season at Triple-A El Paso, Gillaspie was unable to find his footing in the big leagues, posting a 7.15 ERA an 1.32 WHIP in 11.1 innings. The 27-year-old should be able to at least attract a minor-league contract in free agency.

The Padres optioned Gillaspie to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander was called up by San Diego on Thursday, and he'll return to the minors after giving up six earned runs in two relief appearances. Gillaspie is heading back to El Paso, where he has a 3.60 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 31:14 K:BB across 35 innings this year.

Gillaspie was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Gillaspie has spent the majority of his 2024 season at Triple-A El Paso and has maintained a mediocre 31:14 K:BB across 35 innings at the level. He'll likely serve as a low-leverage option in the San Diego bullpen.

The Padres optioned Gillaspie to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Gillaspie will lose his spot in the major-league bullpen as the Friars make room for Martin Perez, Tanner Scott and Bryan Hoeing -- all of whom were acquired Tuesday ahead of the trade deadline. After his promotion to San Diego on July 10, Gillaspie allowed three earned runs in 5.2 innings while striking out one batter and walking none.

The Padres recalled Gillaspie from Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Since making his last appearance in the majors May 20, Gillaspie has logged a 2.76 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 16.1 innings in Triple-A. He'll now rejoin the big-league club to give the Padres some additional bullpen depth heading into the All-Star break. Adam Mazur was optioned to El Paso in a corresponding move.

The Padres optioned Gillaspie to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Gillasplie was called up by San Diego over the weekend and will return to El Paso without appearing in a game. The right-hander has a 5.17 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 12:4 K:BB over 15.2 innings at Triple-A this season.

The Padres recalled Gillaspie from Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

With Yu Darvish (groin) and Joe Musgrove (elbow) both headed for the injured list, Gillaspie and Randy Vasquez will come up from the minors to fill the openings in San Diego's pitching staff. Gillaspie has appeared in two games for the Padres this year, throwing 2.2 shutout innings, but he has posted a 5.17 ERA and 1.51 WHIP through 15.2 frames in Triple-A. He will likely be limited to low-leverage situations while with the big-league club.
