Padres To Select Nabil Crismatt

By Connor Byrne | March 29, 2021 at 6:31pm CDT

The Padres informed right-hander Nabil Crismatt that he will make their Opening Day roster, Dennis Lin of The Athletic tweets. Because Crismatt isn’t on the Padres’ 40-man roster, which is full, they will need to make a corresponding move to clear space for him.

The Padres made a series of high-profile acquisitions during the offseason, but Crismatt flew under the radar as a minor league signing. Now 26 years old, Crismatt divided 2012-20 among the Mets, Mariners and Cardinals organizations, combining for a 3.82 ERA with better than a strikeout per inning and fewer than three walks per nine over 641 2/3 innings in the minors.

Crismatt made his big league debut last year in St. Louis, and though he only averaged 89.5 mph on his fastball, he gave up just three earned runs on six hits, walked one batter and struck out eight in 8 1/3 innings. He then pitched to a near-spotless 0.87 ERA in 10 1/3 innings this spring, and will try to carry the success he has enjoyed since 2020 into this regular season.

    I was always disappointed the Mets never gave him a shot he always seemed like an interesting prospect. Wish him the best with the Padres!

    I wonder what the corresponding move is. Maybe Javy Guerra to 60 day IL with that UCL sprain?

      Guerra is already on the 10-day IL.

        Altavilla might be odd man out.

          Or Taylor Williams. Frankly, we could live without any or all of Guerra, Alravilla, or Williams. Maybe keep one for mop-up.

          Adams and Johnson are due back in 10-15 days, so I would imagine Taylor Williams and maybe Crismatt’s tenure will be brief. Chrismatt has options, not Williams.

        @Hudson6 I’m aware, but Guerra being on the 10-day IL doesn’t help Crismatt get on the 40 man roster since they have a full 40 man at the moment. If they can move Guerra to the 60-day IL then it would free up a 40 man roster spot for Crismatt.

        Apparently Taylor Williams made the opening day roster so it doesn’t look like he’s going to be where that 40 man spot comes from. Only viable options for that in my mind really are moving either Guerra or Strahm to the 60 day IL or DFA Jordan Humphries who they just picked up.

          I believe they will still have to cut a reliever or 2. Did Altavilla make the team? If he doesn’t he is out of options so it will create an additional space on the 40-man.

          Altavilla was put on 10 day IL and not on opening day roster.

        @Hudson6 that doesn’t mean he can’t be moved to the 60-day IL. But as SanDiegoTom mentioned, putting Michel Baez on the 60-day IL is going to be what happens.

        I scoured the net an hour ago, and thus far have seen one, single Twitter post from someone I’ve never heard of. MadFriars retweeted it. Other than that, no credible news source or team source has verified the assertion. As far as I’m concerned, until it’s verified, it’s someone’s sick idea of a joke.

    I’m not surprised he made the team with the injuries to the bullpen.
    The big question is will Marcon make the squad.

    It’s the time of the year where all of the out-of-options relievers suddenly come down with injuries. Crazy annual coincidence!

    If you look at his AAA numbers, it’s easy to see why the Mets and Mariners gave up on Crismatt. By the numbers, it looks like he hit his wall when he got to AAA.

    I am happy for my fellow Colombian! He’s been nice in the bullpen since last year and hopefully will stay in SDs roster for long. He is originally a starter but in a stacked San Diego rotation, whatever his role may be, is something to celebrate!
    P.S. His name is unusual because he has middle-eastern heritage. We call him ‘Nabo’ in Colombia, but Crismatt is close to Christmas… Maybe?
