Padres’ Fernando Tatis Jr. trusting the process after not being cleared to swing today

San Diego Padres President of Baseball Operations A.J. Preller announced on Tuesday that his superstar shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. has not been cleared to swing a bat by doctors after his latest wrist scan. The Padres will be going week to week with Tatis and Preller doesn’t know when the next MRI scan will be.

Fernando Tatis Jr.’s CT scan yesterday did not reveal the level of healing the Padres hoped. The timeline will be moved back.

“This is all about the long term and a long relationship with Fernando and his career,” Preller said Tuesday via Zoom.
