The San Diego Padres have added outfielder Bryce Johnson to their major league roster, following the concussion-related injury of Jackson Merrill. In a corresponding move, catcher Luis Campusano has been sent down to Triple-A El Paso. Johnson's addition offers the Padres more depth in the outfield, particularly with Campusano not receiving ample playing time. With Johnson's switch-hitting capabilities, he is expected to join Mike Shildt's outfield rotation, likely sharing center field responsibilities with Brandon Lockridge. This strategic move addresses immediate roster gaps for the team.
The Padres' promotion of Bryce Johnson to the big league roster aims to strengthen their outfield depth after losing Jackson Merrill to injury.
Luis Campusano's demotion to Triple-A El Paso as a third catcher opens opportunities for Johnson, providing the team with a switch-hitting option in the outfield.
