Fernando Tatis Jr. is back with the San Diego Padres, bringing his trademark flair to the game of baseball. He's also returned with a hint of humility. For the first time since an 80-game PED suspension that shocked and enraged his teammates, administrators, and a fan base, the 24-year-old is playing in a regular season game on Thursday. The Arizona Diamondbacks will leadoff and play right field. 'It's like my first game in the big leagues - those nerves have sparked again,' Tatis said before the game. 'Just happy to be here, and grateful for the opportunity.' We have a long way to go, so we can't wait to contribute.'

In the club's 13th losing season of his tenure, Dayton Moore, the architect of the team's 2015 championship, has been fired.

Sherman didn't hire Moore but retained him after acquiring the club from senior businessman David Glass in 2019. Sherman said Wednesday, 'The bottom line here is that it's time to change.' 'There's a little bit of where we are and where we should be right now.'
