Starting pitching depth was a strength in 2022, but the Padres will have to unearth quality behind Yu Darvish, Joe Musgrove, Blake Snell if arms are to again lead the way
Pitchers and catchers participating in the World Baseball Classic will report to the Padres’ spring training complex in Peoria, Ariz., by Monday, with the rest of the roster trickling in over the next week ahead of the first full-squad workout on Feb. 21.
