Rest-of-Season Projections

Sent down Sunday
Kolek was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Kolek will head to El Paso after posting a disappointing 6.23 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with 20 punchouts over 26 innings in his last five starts. The cold stretch came on the heels of back-to-back scoreless outings for the right-hander, and he will now look to reset at Triple-A. The move made room for Kyle Hart to join the major-league roster, and Hart is expected to operate as the team's bulk reliever behind opener David Morgan against the Rangers on Sunday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Could remain in rotation
Kolek is likely to stick in the Padres rotation for the near future after Michael King was placed on the injured list Sunday with right shoulder inflammation.
Analysis
Kolek figures to have a solidified spot in the rotation with King on the shelf. It was possible Kolek was going to be the odd man out sooner than later due to Yu Darvish being on a rehab assignment as he works his way back from elbow inflammation. Now with King injured, Kolek should stick around for a little while longer. Kolek has pitched to a 2.84 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB in 25.1 innings thus far.
