Padres' Austin Hedges: Has Thursday off
Hedges is out of the lineup Thursday against the Diamondbacks, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
Analysis:
Hedges has shown tremendous power at the plate lately. Over the last seven games he's slugged four home runs and notched nine RBI across 22 at-bats. He'll get the night off as the Padres opt to start Luis Torrens at catcher.
