  • Guarantees return Sunday
    Profar (knee) is available off the bench Saturday against the Brewers and said that he will "100 percent" be playing in Sunday's series finale, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Advice: Profar was removed from Friday's game with a left knee issue and was held out of the starting lineup Saturday. However, it sounds like he'll be back in action Sunday and appears to have avoided a significant injury. He's in the midst of a breakout campaign at the age of 31, slashing .320/.415/.483 with 10 home runs across 317 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Saturday, 1:49 pm
     
  • Held out of starting lineup
    Profar (knee) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Profar was removed for a pinch runner late in Friday's game due issues with his knee. Considering he's dealt with an injury to his left knee recently, his removal could be precautionary. However, Tyler Wade will fill left field Saturday. Rotowire.com Saturday, 1:19 pm
     
  • Jurickson Profar (knee) not in lineup on Saturday
    Jurickson Profar (knee) is not in the Padres’ starting lineup for Saturday night’s matchup against the Brewers.

    Advice: The 31-year-old outfielder aggravated his left knee injury during Friday’s battle against the Brewers. The good news is that he hasn’t been placed on the injured list. Profar has been playing through the knee issue for a while now and believes that he’ll be able to return to the lineup for Sunday’s series finale. He’s considered day-to-day.

  • Jurickson Profar dealing with left knee issue
    Jurickson Profar was removed from Friday’s game against the Brewers with left knee patellar tendinitis.

    Advice: Profar has been playing through patellar tendinitis in his left knee and appears to have re-aggravated the issue during Friday’s contest against the Brewers. The 31-year-old was lifted for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning and there’s wasn’t much of an update on his status following the contest. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him get a couple days off this weekend to rest and recover, so fantasy managers should be prepared. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:10 am
     
  • Hobbled Jurickson Profar pulled for pinch-runner
    Jurickson Profar was lifted for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning Friday against the Brewers.

    Advice: This probably wasn’t a move the Padres would have made unless Profar’s knee was acting up again. José Azocar ran for him in the game against the Brewers. Rotoworld Friday, 9:36 pm
     
  • Fernando Tatis Jr. day-to-day with triceps contusion
    Fernando Tatis Jr. is day-to-day with a left triceps contusion, the Padres announced.

    Advice: Tatis left Friday’s game after he was in the elbow by a pitch. If he can’t play Saturday, then José Azocar will probably play right field. Rotoworld Friday, 9:32 pm
     
  • May have aggravated knee issue
    Profar (knee) was removed for a pinch runner in the seventh inning of Friday's game against the Brewers, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Profar dealt with a knee injury earlier in June, and he didn't appear to be running at full strength to begin Friday's game. As a result, the Padres replaced him after a one-out double with the score tied 5-5 in the seventh. Profar could end up getting additional time off this weekend. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:19 pm
     
  • Reaches base four times
    Abrams (wrist) went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two runs scored, an RBI, a stolen base and a walk in Friday's win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Abrams returned to the lineup after missing the previous two games and wasted no time making an impact, ripping a double on the first pitch of the game. He knocked an RBI double later in the game. The 23-year-old shortstop is heating up again; he's gone 13-for-28 (.464) with six extra-base hits over his last eight games. In 12 games prior to that, he posted a .510 OPS with no multi-hit performances. Abrams is slashing .267/.320/.487 on the year with 33 extra-base hits and 11 steals. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:57 pm
     
  • Fernando Tatis Jr. leaves game after hit by pitch
    Fernando Tatis Jr. was pulled from Friday night’s battle against the Brewers after he was hit by a pitch on his left elbow.

    Advice: The 25-year-old superstar remained in the game to run the bass for himself and even played another couple of innings in the field, but he was ultimately lifted for a pinch-hitter the next time that his spot came around in the Padres’ lineup. He’ll presumably head for X-rays to rule out any potential fractures. Stay tuned, as the Padres should have an update on his status after the game. Rotoworld Friday, 8:26 pm
