After reportedly picking Juan Soto up in a blockbuster deal with the Nationals earlier in the day, the San Diego Padres (58-46) host the Colorado Rockies (46-58) for a doubleheader on Tuesday as they wait for their new star to arrive. The first game is a matinee at Petco Park, and the matchup doubles as the second game of a five-game series. The NL West rivals square off as part of the final series in San Diego between the two sides in 2022. The Padres won the opener on Monday evening. It's a matchup of right-handed starters with Ryan Feltner (1-3, 5.59 ERA) on the mound for Colorado, while Yu Darvish is on the hill for San Diego.
