The San Diego Padres haven’t been totally truthful about what has been going on with Fernando Tatis Jr., who hasn’t played a game this season due to a wrist injury. Weeks ago we found out that Tatis was swinging a bat because a fan put out a video on social media. The Padres didn’t tell the media he was going to be doing that.
Today though, San Diego’s general manager A.J. Preller told Ben & Woods that the 23-year-old will begin his swing progression today at Petco Park. “Tatis will begin his hitting progression today so he’s been doing some more physical activity and more defensive work over the last couple weeks”.
