Padres send down Pedro Avila and Luis Campusano as roster shrinks to 26 players

By tomorrow, the San Diego Padres had to get their roster from 28 to 26 players and they’ve officially done just that. The club announced today that Luis Campusano and Pedro Avila are being sent to Triple-A El Paso.

Following today’s game, the #Padres optioned RHP Pedro Avila and C Luis Campusano to Triple-A El Paso.

The current roster is now at 26.— San Diego Padres (@Padres) May 2, 2022

I wrote on Saturday that Avila was the likeliest to be sent down because he barely pitched at all in the majors this season.
