Padres' Allen Cordoba: Fills in for injured outfielder Wednesday

Cordoba was a late addition to the starting lineup Wednesday, going 2-for-4 with a triple and a stolen base in a loss to the Brewers.

Matt Szczur (ankle) was a late scratch and Cordoba answered the call in left field. The former's injury isn't considered serious, so it is unlikely that the utility man earns regular playing time. The 21-year-old has performed well in a reserve role this season, slashing .278/.339/.481 in 59 plate appearances, so Cordoba would gain some fantasy value should he receive regular playing time at some point this season.
