Padres News: Odrisamer Despaigne Back on Track

Odrisamer Despaigne knows that he doesn’t have to rely on tricking hitters to get them out. You don’t get to the major leagues on parlor tricks after all. His season has been a rollercoaster of sorts so far, filling in admirably when Ian Kennedy went on the DL at first, then hitting a rough patch when filling in a week later for injured Brandon Morrow. Sunday he turned in his best effort so far on the year, allowing only one run and going a career high 8 innings in the Padres 7-1 win.
