• Padres minor league update week #5Leo De Vries has a dominant week The San Diego Padres top prospect, shortstop Leo De Vries, continues to tear up the Midwest League with his bat.

• San Diego Padres minor league update week #2Padres affiliates Double-A through Single-A started their seasons The minor league season has completed the second week with all the Padres affiliates playing games.
