Adrian Morejon Misses NLDS Game 3 Due to Left Shoulder Fatigue

AutoDraft Pro AI

San Diego Padres setup man Adrian Morejon was unavailable for NLDS Game 3 due to lingering left shoulder fatigue and stickiness. Manager Craig Stammen termed the issue minor, leaving open the possibility he could return for Game 4. Morejon posted a 2.83 ERA over 86 regular-season innings and 76 appearances. His absence forced Michael King to step up and close out a 4-3 victory, and Morejon's potential return would bolster the bullpen behind Game 4 starter Walker Buehler.
