With just two wins in their last nine games since the All Star break, the Padres called up several of their top pitching prospects from Double-A Amarillo.
As the second half of the baseball season gets underway, the San Diego Padres continue to discuss various trades that could effect the El Paso Chihuahuas.
Padres pitcher Logan Allen shutout the Milwaukee Brewers for seven innings last night in his MLB debut, and won a dollar bet with actor/pro wrestler John Cena.
After a historic Sunday outing, where he jacked three homers in a single game, El Paso Chihuahuas infielder Luis Urias was selected as the Pacific Coast League Player of the Week for the period of April 22-28.
The El Paso Chihuahuas joined MiLB and Copa de la Diversión in their efforts to connect with the diverse culture of fans across baseball and unveiled their alternate logo, "Margaritas," which will be sported by the team during five different games this season.
The learning curve for Padres prospects has become more scrutinized with the addition of prized free agent Manny Machado, but having one of the top farm systems in baseball should help that process.
