Padres optioned RHP Brad Brach to Triple-A Tucson.

He was sent down to make room for Thursday's starter Andrew Cashner on the active roster. Brach has a 4.23 ERA and 31/23 K/BB ratio over 27 2/3 innings this season and figures to find his way back to the big leagues later this season.

Padres recalled RHP Brad Brach from Triple-A Tucson.

He'll take the traded Ernesto Frieri's roster spot. Brach struggled mightily in 5 1/3 big-league innings earlier this season, posting a 5.06 ERA, 2.44 WHIP and abysmal 3/7 K/BB ratio. He should be limited to mop-up duty for the time being.

Padres optioned RHP Brad Brach to Triple-A Tucson.

Brach made the most of his opportunities this spring, earning a 1.69 ERA and 1.03 WHIP in 10 2/3 innings. His remarkable 14/2 K/BB ratio makes this move a bit puzzling, particularly when weighing his sterling minor league career. The 25-year-old will have to wait a little longer to show off his stuff over a full major league season.

Padres purchased the contract of RHP Brad Brach from Triple-A Tucson.

The Padres used four relievers Tuesday night against the Dodgers, including multiple-inning outings from Anthony Bass and Josh Spence, so Brach will give Bud Black another option out of the bullpen. The 25-year-old right-hander posted an impressive 2.89 ERA, 34 saves and 94/12 K/BB ratio over 71 2/3 innings between Double-A San Antonio and Triple-A Tucson this season. He'll get an early audition to be a member of the 2012 bullpen in September.
