  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Optioned to El Paso

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso by the Padres on Saturday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Knehr struggled to a 12.27 ERA over three appearances and 3.2 innings while with the club. The right-hander was optioned down to El Paso to make room for Joe Musgrove (toe/shoulder), who will come off the injured list to make his 2023 season debut Saturday.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Sent down by Padres

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Knehr joined the Padres' bullpen last week after active rosters expanded to 28 players, but he gave up four runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two in 1.2 innings during his lone appearance following his promotion. He'll head back to the minors since Pierce Johnson (elbow) is expected to be reinstated from the 60-day injured list Saturday.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Called up Thursday

    Knehr was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.

    Knehr will rejoin the Padres' bullpen since active rosters expanded to 28 players Thursday. He's spent the last month in the minors but posted a 1.50 ERA and 0.75 WHIP in 12 innings over four appearances (one start) for San Diego earlier in the season.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Returns to minors

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

    Knehr was called up to make a spot start in Tuesday's doubleheader against the Rockies, so his move back to El Paso was expected. The right-hander allowed two runs over 3.2 innings and has a 1.50 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB across four big-league outings this year.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Short stint in spot start

    Knehr didn't factor into the decision in a 3-2 win over the Rockies during the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out one and also hit two batters with pitches.

    Making his first big-league start of the year, Knehr needed 82 pitches (48 strikes) to record only 11 outs before getting the hook, and his line could have been a lot worse as he exited with the bases loaded and two outs in the top of the fourth inning. Fortunately for the Padres, none of those runners came around to score. Knehr will likely head back to Triple-A El Paso with a 1.50 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB through 12 MLB innings.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Called up for spot start

    The Padres recalled Knehr from Triple-A El Paso in advance of his scheduled start in the second game of Tuesday's doublheader with the Rockies in San Diego.

    As expected, Knehr joins the Padres to make his fourth appearance and first start of 2022. Though he has yet to allow a run in 8.1 innings in the majors in 2022, he's been far less effective over a larger sample of action at Triple-A. In 23 appearances for El Paso spanning 67 innings, Knehr has submitted a 6.85 ERA and 1.64 WHIP.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Set to start Tuesday

    Knehr will be called up from Triple-A El Paso to start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Rockies at Petco Park, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Knehr will be pitching for the Padres for the first time since July 12 and just the fourth time all season. He hasn't allowed a run through 8.1 big-league innings in 2022, but he owns a 6.85 ERA and 1.64 WHIP across 67 frames at Triple-A.

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Recalled from El Paso

    Knehr was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

    Knehr spent nearly a month in the minors and posted a 6.14 ERA and 2.32 WHIP in 7.1 innings over seven appearances during his stint with the Triple-A club. The right-hander should serve as a middle reliever for the Padres after Dinelson Lamet was sent down Monday.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Optioned to Triple-A

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

    Knehr spent the weekend in the Padres' bullpen and struck out four in two scoreless relief innings during Friday's game against the Rockies. However, he'll head back to the minors after CJ Abrams was recalled Monday.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Back in big leagues

    Knehr was recalled by the Padres on Friday.

    Knehr has spent most of the season with Triple-A El Paso, where he's struggled to a 7.84 ERA in 10 starts and two relief appearances. In his lone appearance at the major-league level Saturday against the Rockies, he threw 4.2 scoreless innings of relief. He was demoted the next day but is now back with the big-league squad, with Joe Musgrove hitting the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Moved to Triple-A

    Knehr was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

    He tossed 4.2 scoreless innings during mop-up duty Saturday against the Rockies, and he will head back down until the Padres have need of another fresh bullpen arm. Kyle Tyler takes Knehr's spot in the bullpen.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Impresses in long relief

    Knehr tossed 4.2 scoreless frames in long relief but didn't factor into the decision Saturday in the Padres' 6-2 loss to the Rockies in the second game of a doubleheader. He scattered three hits and walked none while striking out three.

    Knehr was one of two pitchers summoned from Triple-A El Paso in advance of the twin bill after fellow hurlers Mike Clevinger and Adrian Morejon were placed on the COVID-19-related injured list. Though he performed admirably in long relief after starter MacKenzie Gore was chased midway through the third inning, Knehr's 65-pitch workload means he likely won't be available out of the bullpen for at least the next couple of days. As a result, Knehr could be a candidate for a demotion back to El Paso if the Padres want to swap him out for a fresh arm in the bullpen.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Brought up Saturday

    Knehr was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

    Knehr has posted a 7.84 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in 12 appearances with El Paso this season, but the Padres needed an extra arm with a couple pitchers landing on the COVID-19-related injured list, and Knehr got the call. If he does not pitch Saturday, there's a chance he could start the day after.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Misses out on Opening Day roster

    The Padres optioned Knehr to Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.

    Even though they swapped out two pitchers (Chris Paddack and Emilio Pagan) for one (Taylor Rogers) in a trade with the Twins earlier in the day, the Padres didn't have room in the rotation or bullpen for Knehr on the Opening Day roster. The 25-year-old lefty will likely prepare to fill a starting role for El Paso and stay stretched out in the event the Padres require reinforcement for the rotation at some point down the road.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Draws praise from manager

    Padres manager Bob Melvin indicated recently that he's pleased with Knehr's work this spring, per Bill Center of FriarWire. "I like Knehr's stuff. He throws strikes, has a good breaking ball. He's got late movement to it. He's got a lot of confidence in what he is doing now based on the fact that he was in the big leagues last year. I like his progress," Melvin stated.

    Knehr got into one Cactus League game this spring, allowing one run (on a solo homer) over two innings while striking out three. However, he also worked on his pitching on the back fields and evidently impressed his manager. Knehr posted a 4.97 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 20:20 K:BB across 29 innings for San Diego last season, and it's not clear if he'll have a spot on on the 2022 Opening Day roster.

  • Padres' Reiss Knehr: Yields two runs in loss

    Knehr (1-2) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks over three innings Sunday, striking out two and taking a loss against the Giants.

    Knehr kept the Giants off the board for two innings to start the game before Buster Posey brought home two runs with a third-inning single. The 24-year-old rookie finished the 2021 season with a 4.97 ERA and a 20:20 K:BB through 29 innings. He went 0-2 with a 6.30 ERA over his last four outings. He'll have a shot at making the staff next season, though the starting rotation for the contending Padres seems likely to be staffed by more experienced arms.
