Jurickson Profar, Ha-Seong Kim flipped in order as Padres look to boost offense
On the afternoon of the 13th game, Mike Shildt flip-flopped his fifth and sixth hitters, the Padres manager’s first change top his top-six this season. He also moved rookie center fielder Jackson Merrill directly behind catcher Luis Campusano for the first time. None of this qualifies as a lineup shakeup as the Padres begin a three-game homestand against the Chicago Cubs, which is noteworthy in and of itself as Shildt navigates his offense’s cold snap.
He had an RBI single yesterday, but just felt like where Pro’s at and the lefty , just sliding it up and splitting it up just a little bit more.” The other tweak to Monday’s lineup might be considered a bit of a baby step as the Padres continue to stress not putting too much on Merrill’s plate as a 20-year-old rookie. He's coming off his first career four-hit game, is hitting .324/.395/.
