Starting for the first time in five days, Kyle Blanks homered and walked Wednesday against the Orioles.

Carlos Quentin will probably prove to be a better hitter than Blanks this season, but there's no doubt the Padres would have been better off starting Blanks regularly in his place over the first month and a half. Quentin did have a hit today, though: his popup to shallow right got lost in the sun by Ryan Flaherty. If only he had run it out rather than sulked, he would have had a double instead of a single.

C	1	Yasmani Grandal Suspended Yasmani Grandal will begin a minor league rehab assignment Saturday with Triple-A Tucson. Grandal is still serving his 50-game suspension for a positive PED test, but he is allowed to begin a 10-game minor league assignment. The 24-year-old backstop is eligible to join the Padres on May 28 and may split playing time with Nick Hundley upon his return. May 15

	2	Logan Forsythe D.L. Logan Forsythe (foot) took batting practice on the field Thursday. It's the first time he's done so since plantar fasciitis in his right foot sent him to the DL prior to the season. Forsythe also took ground balls before Thursday's game. "He's on the field doing baseball activities stuff, so he's on the way back," Padres manager Bud Black said. "He's on the mend." The team hasn't revealed a timetable for Forsythe, but he should be ready sometime next month if all goes well. May 16

LF	1	Carlos Quentin Sidelined Carlos Quentin is not in the Padres' lineup Tuesday after tweaking his knee during Monday's game. Quentin missing games here and there due to his chronic knee issues has become routine. The good news is that he's expected to be back in there Wednesday. Chris Denorfia is getting the start in left field Tuesday. May 21
	2	Kyle Blanks
CF	1	Cameron Maybin D.L. Padres manager Bud Black said he'd like Cameron Maybin (wrist) to get around 30 rehab at-bats. Maybin hit in the cage and on the field before Monday's game and will do the same thing on Tuesday and Wednesday. Assuming it goes well, he'll begin a rehab assignment on Friday. Maybin could return before the end of the month. May 20

Pos	Role	Name

	2	Clayton Richard D.L. Clayton Richard (illness) gave up two runs in six innings Tuesday in his second minor league rehab start with Triple-A Tucson. Richard, out since May 4 with an intestinal virus, gave up five hits and no walks while striking out four. The southpaw threw 65 out of 94 pitches for strikes. It should be enough for the Padres to activate him from the disabled list. May 22
	3	Jason Marquis
	4	Eric Stults
	5	Andrew Cashner
	6	Burch Smith
	7	Cory Luebke D.L. Cory Luebke (elbow) has had his throwing program stopped for the second time this year in his attempt to return from Tommy John surgery. Luebke was shut down in early March before resuming sessions of catch on April 1, and he had progressed to throwing off a mound before this latest setback. Obviously none of this bodes well for his mission to return to live major league games by the All-Star break. May 18
	8	Joe Wieland D.L. Joe Wieland (elbow) threw a bullpen session Friday at the Padres' spring training complex. Wieland, currently on the 60-day disabled list, is nine months removed from Tommy John surgery and will continued to be moved along slowly. If he can avoid setbacks, Wieland should be game-ready sometime after the All-Star break. Apr 27
	9	Casey Kelly D.L. Padres placed LHP Casey Kelly on the 60-day disabled list with a left elbow injury. Kelly will undergo Tommy John surgery during the first week of April. Obviously, he won't be making any contribution this season. Mar 31
