The San Diego Padres cut a 27-year-old rookie, Nick Pivetta dominated his first start back in nearly five months and Manny Machado changed his look.

The San Diego Padres are close to a Nick Pivetta return, walked-it-off against the New York Yankees and are back in a wild-card spot.

The Padres announced when Nick Pivetta will return to their starting rotation, and who will go to the bullpen for now.
