Cashner, who's endured two lengthy stints on the disabled list this season, crafted a 5.59 ERA across three rehab outings between High-A Lake Elsinore and Triple-A El Paso.
Cashner, a first-round pick in 2008, owns a 2.36 ERA across 12 starts for the Padres this season while allowing just two home runs across 76 1/3 innings.
