Joe Musgrove's Opening Day Status Uncertain Due to Elbow

Joe Musgrove is day-to-day as the Padres ease his workload following his March 4 outing against Team Great Britain. The team is taking a cautious approach with the veteran hurler, who missed the 2025 season following Tommy John surgery in October 2024. Manager Craig Stammen noted that Musgrove's recovery will not be a straight shot, and his availability for Opening Day remains uncertain as the team evaluates him daily.
