Padres' Randy Vasquez: Shellacked in Detroit
Vasquez (1-2) took the loss Monday against Detroit, allowing six runs on five hits and three walks over two innings with one strikeout.
The San Diego right-hander had to be lifted in the third without making an out in the inning after just 68 pitches. Reliever Logan Gillaspie then did Vasquez no favors, as Gillaspie allowed two inherited runners to score. Vasquez entered this contest with a sterling 1.74 ERA and exited with a much more ordinary 3.97 mark. He looks to bounce back in his next scheduled start against the Rays at home this weekend.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Sharp in no-decision Tuesday
Vasquez didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 2-1 extra-inning loss to the Cubs, allowing one run on seven hits and two walks over five-plus innings. He struck out two.
The right-hander blanked the Cubbies for five frames before running out of gas in the sixth, as he gave up back-to-back singles to Dansby Swanson and Nico Hoerner before getting the hook, with Adrian Morejon then letting one of the inherited runners cross the plate. Vasquez left the mound after 80 pitches (51 strikes), and while his 8:14 K:BB through 20.2 innings is worrisome, he'll carry a 1.74 ERA and 1.35 WHIP into his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week in Detroit.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Grabs first win
Vasquez (1-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Athletics, allowing one run on one hit and three walks over five innings. He struck out one.
Vasquez wasn't overpowering Wednesday, but he was able to hold the A's to a lone second-inning run, which would prove to be enough to earn the win in a 2-1 San Diego victory. Command has been an issue for Vasquez early in the year -- he's now issued 12 walks through his first 15.2 innings. However, the right-hander has pitched to a 1.72 ERA while holding down the fifth spot in the Padres' rotation.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Walks five in loss
Vasquez (0-1) took the loss against the Cubs on Friday, allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits and five walks with two strikeouts over 4.2 innings.
Vasquez walked in a run in the first inning and couldn't make it out of the fifth after allowing two more runs in the frame. The 26-year-old struggled with his command, finding the zone on just 44 of 82 pitches and generating only four swinging strikes. He'll take a 1.69 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 5:9 K:BB through 10.2 innings into a road matchup with the Athletics next week.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Logs quality start in no-decision
Vasquez did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 1-0 win over Atlanta. He allowed four walks and four hits while striking out three across six scoreless innings.
Although he wasn't as effective as counterpart Spencer Schwellenbach, Vasquez was able to induce double plays in the first and fourth inning and got out of another sticky situation in the sixth to keep Atlanta off the board. Vasquez was able to beat out Stephen Kolek for the final spot in the Padres' rotation in spring training, and the former's performance Saturday has validated that decision for the time being. Vasquez's next start is tentatively slated for next weekend against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Wins rotation spot
Vasquez will begin the 2025 season in the Padres' starting rotation, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Vasquez has been competing for a spot near the back end of San Diego's starting rotation throughout spring training, and the team named Vasquez and Kyle Hart the fourth and fifth starters Monday, resulting in the demotion of Stephen Kolek to Triple-A El Paso. Vasquez performed well during camp, posting a 3.38 ERA with seven strikeouts and one walk over three appearances.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Looks good in rotation audition
Vasquez pitched four innings against the Cubs in a Cactus League contest Friday, allowing one run on two hits and no walks while striking out four batters.
Vasquez worked in a piggyback role in the exhibition matchup, entering the game in the sixth frame following Michael King's five scoreless innings. Vasquez finished off the contest by allowing Chicago to score just one run, which came on a solo homer by Moises Ballesteros. The appearance was presumably Vasquez's final one of the spring, in which case he'll finish the Cactus League slate with a 3.38 ERA, 1.88 WHIP and 7:1 K:BB across eight innings. It remains to be seen what Vasquez's role will be to begin the campaign, but he's in the running for one of two open rotation spots along with Stephen Kolek and Kyle Hart.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Still in running for rotation spot
Vasquez may be one of two finalists for San Diego's fifth-starter role, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
For most of spring training, Vasquez, Matt Waldron, Kyle Hart and Stephen Kolek have been battling for the job as the Padres' fifth starter. However, Waldron is unlikely to be ready for Opening Day due to a recent oblique injury, and Hart may not be built up in time for the start of the regular season after having his progression temporarily paused due to the flu. That may leave Vasquez and Kolek as the final two candidates for the team's final rotation spot. Vasquez has a clear edge in terms of starting experience after starting in all 20 of his outings with the Padres last season, while Kolek came out of the bullpen for all 42 of his appearances. Vasquez also impressed with five scoreless frames in a Triple-A start Friday, but Kolek has opened eyes this spring by allowing just one run over nine frames and averaging a mere 12 pitches per inning.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Mixed results in spring debut
Vasquez allowed one run on five hits while striking out two batters over two innings in a Cactus League contest against the Cubs on Monday.
Vasquez allowed constant traffic on the basepaths, but four of the five hits he surrendered were singles, and he managed to yield just one run. The most impressive parts of Vasquez's outing were the seven whiffs he registered on 31 pitches and the six different pitch types he deployed. Vasquez is battling for the final spot in San Diego's rotation, with Kyle Hart, Matt Waldron, Jhony Brito and Stephen Kolek all in the mix as well.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Sent to Triple-A
Vasquez was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.
Vasquez had arguably his best start of the season Saturday in Arizona, giving up one hit and one walk while striking out four over six scoreless innings. He'll presumably compete for a rotation spot next spring, but it's not clear if he'll have a role on the Padres' postseason roster. Matt Waldron was recalled in a corresponding move.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Dazzles in spot start
Vasquez allowed one hit and one walk while striking out four over six shutout innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
Vasquez didn't come away with a win since it took until the ninth inning for the Padres' offense to wake up. It was still an impressive outing for the right-hander, who was in the majors for the first time since Sept. 1. He concludes the regular season with a 4.87 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 62:29 K:BB over 98 innings across 20 starts this season. Despite the strong outing, Vasquez is unlikely to make the Padres' wild-card roster, and he could be optioned out Sunday for a fresh bullpen arm.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Promoted for start
The Padres recalled Vasquez from Triple-A El Paso on Saturday ahead of his start versus Arizona.
Vasquez allowed nine earned runs over 4.1 innings during his last MLB start Aug. 31 and turned in a 7.20 ERA over 15 frames to finish the season in Triple-A, but he'll be called upon nonetheless to get San Diego through its penultimate regular-season game Saturday. On top of his poor performance, the 25-year-old will match up against a Diamondbacks offense that boasts an .818 OPS since the start of September, making him a rather unappealing streaming option. Alek Jacob was optioned to El Paso in a corresponding move.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Sent to Triple-A
The Padres optioned Vasquez to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.
The right-hander was tagged for nine runs Saturday against the Rays and won't retain his spot on the big-league roster. Vasquez has a 5.18 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 58:28 K:BB across 92 innings this season, and it's unclear if he'll receive another look in the rotation for San Diego this season, as Yu Darvish (elbow) is nearing a return from the injured list.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Lit up for nine runs Saturday
Vasquez (4-7) took the loss against the Rays on Saturday, allowing nine runs on 11 hits and four walks with three strikeouts over 4.1 innings.
Vasquez was staked an early 2-0 lead but yielded a career-high nine earned runs despite allowing just one home run. Over his last 10 starts, the 25-year-old has allowed three earned runs or fewer eight times but also surrendered 15 total earned runs in two disastrous outings. On the season, he owns a 5.18 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 58:28 K:BB across 92 innings and lines up to face the Giants at home next weekend.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Yields two runs
Vasquez (4-6) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks over six innings Monday, striking out two and earning a win over St. Louis.
Vasquez was called up to make his first MLB appearance since Aug. 8 and delivered a quality start. It was his first win since throwing six shutout frames against Washington on July 23. Vasquez has now made 18 starts with the Padres this season. He registered a 5.70 ERA through the first nine and a 3.40 ERA over his last nine. Vasquez will carry a 4.52 ERA into his next start, which is currently lined up to be in Tampa Bay.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Called up to rejoin rotation
The Padres recalled Vasquez from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.
He'll draw the start for the Padres in Monday's series opener in St. Louis, taking over the rotation spot vacated by knuckleballer Matt Waldron, who was optioned to Triple-A last week after giving up 22 earned runs across his last three starts. Vasquez has previously made 17 starts for the Padres this season, going 3-6 with a 4.63 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 53:22 K:BB over 81.2 innings. He'll likely head to the bullpen or return to Triple-A once Yu Darvish (elbow) is ready to return from the 15-day injured list.

Padres' Randy Vasquez: Replacing Waldron in rotation
The Padres will recall Vasquez from Triple-A El Paso to start Monday's game in St. Louis, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
After a two-week stint in the minors, the 25-year-old will rejoin the big-league rotation as a replacement for the struggling Matt Waldron, who was optioned to Triple-A on Thursday. Before his demotion, Vasquez had settled in nicely as a serviceable back-end rotation arm for San Diego, going 2-2 with a 3.46 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over his last eight starts spanning 39 innings. Many of Vasquez's advanced metrics (5.06 SIERA, 7.4 K-BB%) over that eight-start stretch were far less impressive, so fantasy managers should have some level of skepticism of him being able to maintain a sub-4.00 ERA in his subsequent outings with the Padres.
