The Padres, at the moment, are short on left-handed bats. They’re also searching for production of any kind at second base.
Perhaps Josh Naylor and Ty France will be of interest soon.
Both Padres prospects hit back-to-back homers twice, leading Triple-A El Paso to a 10-2 win over Reno on Sunday.
France’s two blasts pushed his season total to nine, his RBI total to 28 and his OPS to a mind-boggling 1.431. The 24-year-old infielder, a right-handed hitter, has predominantly played third base in the Padres system but is blocked there by Manny Machado and at first base by Eric Hosmer.
