Padres outfielder Kavares Tears is headed to Arizona for imaging after a scary left shoulder injury suffered diving headfirst into second base — he heard a pop. The 24-year-old, a fourth-round pick in 2024, was having a breakout season with 13 homers in 69 games and was hitting well in June before his July dip.

Meanwhile, Padres minor league teams had mixed results: El Paso lost 15-9, San Antonio fell 5-4, Fort Wayne won 5-2 (thanks to Alex McCoy’s 13th homer), Lake Elsinore crushed it 6-1, and rookie teams split their games.
