  • Dealing with sore knee
    Manager Mike Shildt said after Tuesday's game versus Oakland that Profar was removed due to left knee soreness, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Profar's left leg gave out on him after he swung and missed at a pitch in the seventh inning, but it appears he escaped the incident without any significant damage. Shildt also noted that Profar has been dealing with problems in his knee for a while and is being viewed as day-to-day going forward. Should the 31-year-old outfielder have to sit out a game or two, David Peralta would likely be the next man up to serve as San Diego's left fielder. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:59 pm
     
  • Jurickson Profar day-to-day with knee soreness
    Padres manager Mike Shildt told reporters Jurickson Profar was removed from Tuesday’s game due to left knee soreness that he’s been dealing with for a while.

    Advice: The Padres are calling him day-to-day for now. That Profar’s left knee buckled on a swing is rather scary, and we’re certainly more concerned about this than the typical “day-to-day” injury. David Peralta could get some extra at-bats in his place if he needs to miss some time. There should be some additional clarity on his status in the coming days. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:44 pm
