Padres Catcher Nick Hundley Comes Off DL Wednesday

Hundley was doing well before going on the DL, and when healthy ranks as one of the Padres’ better hitters.

Tekotte, hardly a top prospect entering the season, skipped Class AAA on his way to the big club and went just 3-for-19 in his brief tryout. Presumably he’ll get another shot later this summer, after he’s done something in the Pacific Coast League.

Yeah, that would explain it. And assuming this is true, Hundley probably won’t be out for just one or two days - he’ll likely need a stint on the disabled list, as oblique strains are tricky things of which you need to take care.

Update: Hundley has officially been placed on the 15-day disabled list.
