Matt Waldron made his 2025 debut on Monday as the Padres continued their search for pitching depth. His start at Citizens Bank Park didn't go as well as last year's outing when he allowed just one run in 7 innings, this time allowing 4 earned runs on 6 hits and 6 walks in just 4.2 innings. Waldron's counterpart Zack Wheeler continued his dominance over the Padres, as he struck out 10 and walked none over 8 scoreless innings. The Padres' struggles with runners in scoring position continued, as they went 0-7 a day after going 0-13. Nick Pivetta will take the mound for the Padres on Tuesday afternoon.
