Latos on track for first start Saturday
During spring training, Padres manager Bud Black went out of his way to keep his options open.
He hinted, strongly at times, that 22-year-old pitching prospect Mat Latos could open the season at Triple-A Portland.
After all, Latos had struggled over his final five starts of 2009 (0-4, 7.71 ERA) before being shut down early to protect his valued right arm from overwork and allow the pitcher to work with Darren Balsley on some delivery adjustments.
“You never know with those things if they are going to stick over the winter,” Black said of the adjustments Latos and Balsley worked on last September.
They did.
In fact, Latos worked over the winter to strengthen the modifications suggested by Balsley. And during the exhibition season, Latos allowed only three runs on 12 hits over 17 innings while striking out 14.

Web gems deliver Friars, Stauffer win
It took five months, 133 games and a bevy of roster changes — remember Duaner Sanchez? — but the Padres secured their first winning month of the year Monday by winning yet another game that was essentially defined by their defense.
Sure, starting pitcher Tim Stauffer worked past five innings for the first time in a month, allowing one run in 6 2/3 innings en route to a 3-1 Padres win over the Nationals in front of a crowd of 19,867 at PETCO Park.
And it probably didn’t hurt that the Padres scored twice in the first inning before Livan Hernandez, the Nationals starting pitcher, began pitching like it was 2000 all over again, the year he won 17 games for the Giants.

Injury delays Tate’s pro debut till 2010
Donavan Tate, the Padres’ first-round Draft pick, won’t make his professional debut until 2010 after being sidelined by a stress reaction to his pubic bone.
Grady Fuson, the Padres’ vice president of scouting and player development, said Tuesday that Tate, who on Aug. 17 agreed to a club-record $6.25 million signing bonus, said the injury is “nothing serious” and that Tate will be on anti-inflammatory medicine for about 10 days.

Gallagher may play role in September
In a week where the Padres showed off their newest talent, pitcher Sean Gallagher quietly went about his business, pitching a bullpen session in anonymity with little fanfare.
But that doesn’t mean Gallagher isn’t a part of the Padres’ future like first-, and second-round Draft picks, prep outfielders Tate Donavan and Everett Williams, who agreed to terms with the team on Monday.
Gallagher, the 23-year-old right-hander, will play a more immediate role in the Padres’ plans, possibly as early as September if not Spring Training, when he’ll challenge for a spot in the starting rotation for 2010.
