In series of moves, Venable reinstated, Mateo to DL

SAN DIEGO -- In a series of roster moves before Saturday's game, the Padres reinstated outfielder Will Venable from the paternity list and placed Marcos Mateo on the 15-day disabled list with a neck strain, recalling left-hander Frank Garces in his place.

The Padres also moved outfielder Wil Myers to the 60-day DL (retroactive to June 14) and claimed reliever Caleb Thielbar off waivers from the Twins. They assigned Thielbar to Triple-A El Paso, along with outfielder Alex Dickerson, who picked up his first Major League hit Friday night.
