Padres Announce Initial 60-Man Player Pool

By Anthony Franco | June 28, 2020 at 9:05pm CDT

Today marks the deadline for teams to submit their initial spring training player pools, which can comprise up to 60 players. Players are not eligible to participate in either a spring training or regular season game until they are included in the pool. Teams are free to change the makeup of the pools as they see fit. However, players removed from a team’s 60-man (for reasons unrelated to injury, suspension, etc.) must be exposed to other organizations via trade or waivers.

Not all players within a team’s pool are ticketed for MLB playing time, of course. Most teams will include well-regarded but still far-off prospects as a means of getting them training reps with no intention of running them onto a major league diamond this season. A comprehensive review of 2020’s unique set of rules can be found here.

The Padres’ initial 52-player pool consists of the following players…

Right-handed pitchers

  • Michel Baez
  • David Bednar
  • Ronald Bolanos
  • Zach Davies
  • Jerad Eickhoff
  • Javy Guerra
  • Pierce Johnson
  • Dinelson Lamet
  • Chris Paddack
  • Emilio Pagan
  • Luis Patino
  • Luis Perdomo
  • Cal Quantrill
  • Gerardo Reyes
  • Garrett Richards
  • Craig Stammen
  • Trey Wingenter
  • Kirby Yates

Left-handed pitchers

  • Joey Cantillo
  • Jose Castillo
  • MacKenzie Gore
  • Joey Lucchesi
  • Adrian Morejon
  • Drew Pomeranz
  • Matt Strahm
  • Ryan Weathers

Catchers

  • Luis Campusano
  • Austin Hedges
  • Francisco Mejia
  • Webster Rivas
  • Luis Torrens

Infielders

  • CJ Abrams
  • Gabriel Arias
  • Jake Cronenworth
  • Ty France
  • Greg Garcia
  • Eric Hosmer
  • Manny Machado
  • Tucupita Marcano

  • Jurickson Profar
  • Fernando Tatis Jr.
  • Breyvic Valera

Outfielders

    Wow, Hassell being included in insane. I get he won’t make the team but it’s crazy to see him on this list. Hope the padres allow Gore to pitch this year

      I was quite surprised to see Hassell III on the list as well. Other than him tough, no real surprises. I hope Webster never has to be called upon to do anything thing other than catch bullpens this “Summer Training”.

      Keep in mind that any player not on the 60 man list that is not on a major league contract is now a minor league free agent.

        @PF not sure that that’s true but if it is, all the more reason for them to add Dozier over Profar.

      Yeah the fact Profar and Valera are and Vosler isn’t makes little sense. Only reason I’d think of is he’s injured.

        Of course Preller is going to put his lap-dog Jurickson Profar on there

          They signed Profar to be their 2B. He was signed to be their primary option. Of course he will be on the roster. Dozier not being on the list does have me stumped.

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          They didn’t sign Profar. They traded for him.

        • All American Johnsonville Dogs

          3 years ago

          Profar had a terrible spring.

          In a shortened season Padres could have shifted Tatis Jr to 2B, Machado to ss, and given Vosler a shot at 3B. Vosler had a stellar spring. Or tried Vosler at 2B.

          Which, if Vosler proves he could provide value, it solves the 2B issue long term. Worst case scenario is they platoon 2B, which is the plan already.

        • mrpadre19

          3 years ago

          They’re paying Profar regardless….plus gave up two players for him.
          Of course he’s on the 60.
          I guess I don’t understand the surprise?

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          @mrpadre19 that’s what you call a sunk cost fallacy. Also if they release Profar before a certain day don’t they only have to pay him one month’s severance pay?

        • Javia

          3 years ago

          The Padres are not going to reshuffle their entire infield for a 6 year minor leaguer. Perhaps they don’t think he is athletic enough to handle 2B. Myers had a great spring too.

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          Myers = AAAA

        • Javia

          3 years ago

          If you trade for a player you have to at least give him a chance. You don’t give up on an acquisition because of one bad spring, just like you don’t change your whole infield alignment because of one good spring.

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          @Javia like I said. Sunk cost fallacy. If there are better players the Padres can put in their player pool then they make it over Profar.

        • Javia

          3 years ago

          Of course, but a team does not make roster decisions based on Spring Training alone.

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          Fine. How about his 88 wRC+ in 1,830 career plate appearances and inability to make the throw from 2nd.

        • Koamalu

          3 years ago

          That’s funny. Profar is a terrible fielder and he can’t hit. If he is the Padres every day 2B they have no chance to win.

        • Javia

          3 years ago

          I get it: you guys don’t like Profar. MikeEmbletonSmellsBad I know you hate Preller. Fine. Your opinions are noted. Preller traded for Profar for a reason. He is at least going to give him a chance. We aren’t exactly swimming in quality 2B options outside of him anyway. Yes, you two would prefer ANYBODY ELSE. I get it. Preller is going to give Profar a chance.

          I don’t expect much from him. You can b*tch about it all you want, but Profar will almost certainly be given the first/best chance.

        • All American Johnsonville Dogs

          What does him spending 6 years in the minors have to do with anything?

          Top prospects don’t always pan out and unheralded guys beat the odds. That’s the beauty of baseball.

          In recent memory Jeff McNeil and Brian Anderson both came out of nowhere for the Mets and Marlins respectively.

          Entirely reshuffle…. Machado has experience at SS and if Tatis Jr can play ss he can play 2B. It’s not that big of a realignment. Hell put Machado at 2B or try Vosler at 2B. Even less shifting if it makes you feel better.

          There’s 0 reason to not give him a shot in a shortened season and see what you have.

        • Javia

          3 years ago

          First off Machado is a plus, close to premium 3B. He is not a plus SS. Moving him there would hurt the defense. For Jason Vosler.

          Everybody wants to move Tatis. I get it, he is incredibly athletic and has a cannon arm. He could play any position on the field outside of C. The problem is that he is an upcoming star and he wants to play SS. SS is the position with the highest defensive value, therefore everything else being equal the SS will be making the most money. But sure let’s put him at 2B. Lots of 2B with $300 million contracts. Let’s go ahead and piss off the next face of our franchise. For Jason Vosler.

          Vosler had a good spring. Maybe he should get a shot…at DH, as a backup 3B, 2B, 1B, LF etc. But I don’t think anyone in the Padres front office or coaching staff is anywhere near as excited about him as you are. Obviously not or he would already be on the 60-man roster. He may get a shot. He is just not the kind of prospect that a team will do anything to get into a lineup. He isn’t one of the Padres top 30 prospects. To them he is just some guy. If he wants to make it, he will have to take any chance the Padres give him and put a stranglehold on it.

        • MikeEmbletonSmellsBad

          3 years ago

          “MikeEmbletonSmellsBad I know you hate Preller.”

          Not hate, just realistic.

          “Preller traded for Profar for a reason.”

          Because he needed a new lap-dog now that Jose Pirela is gone is the reason he did that.

          “We aren’t exactly swimming in quality 2B options outside of him anyway.”

          Well that would be Preller’s fault.

          “Yes, you two would prefer ANYBODY ELSE.”

          Actually who I would prefer is Luis Urias.

    I guess that this is what you have to do to get any of your minor leaguers any playing time or experience this year. I don’t see them starting any of their prospects major league clocks going except possibly Trammell, and probably not even him.

      Dozier is likely to be added.
      As is Wilcox when he signs
      8 open spots and not much reason to not fill the entire 60 so……

        What’s the hold-up on Wilcox? Just offer him that full $3,327,696 and tell him “We’re not giving up our 2021 first rounder. This is the most we can give you. Take it or leave it.”

    Guys, this is only 52 players. They still have to add 8 more to hit the 60 mark. Non-roster players like Dozier & probably Lagares will be added soon.

      Maybe Abraham Almonte, too?! These 3 deserve 60-man spots imo.

    This could be true for a lot of players but I belive Tatis could put up crazy numbers in this abbreviated season. He’s ridiculously explosive and could make a run at the MVP in what should be a weird, wild season.
