Joe Musgrove is on track to return to the mound after Tommy John surgery, aiming to rejoin the Padres’ rotation right after the All-Star break—though he’s not rushing it. While he could potentially come back as a reliever sooner, the team wants him back as a starter, so he’s focusing on rebuilding arm strength. The Padres, already bolstered by strong performances from Lucas Giolito, are banking on Musgrove’s return to turn their pitching staff into a major strength by season’s end—without sacrificing his long-term health.

Ty Harvey’s second injury stint this season sends shockwaves through the Padres’ farm system, as the top prospect—already hitting over .300 and showing elite plate discipline—now faces another setback after a swing collided with his glove. Signed for $1.5 million last summer, Harvey remains the sixth-best prospect in the organization, but his absence adds pressure as the minor leagues churn with wins, losses, and dramatic comebacks across all levels—from walk-off victories to rain-shortened games and home run explosions.
