Torrens is 7-for-45 with two walks and nine strikeouts this season.
It's been a tough rookie season for Torrens, who never played past High-A before being taken in the Rule 5 draft and traded to the Padres. Even in the minors, he was touted as a good defensive backstop with average skill at the plate, so the lack of offensive production against major-league pitching from the Venezuelan catcher doesn't come as a surprise. One day, Torrens will have experience and could be looked at as a viable fantasy option, but that day doesn't seem like it's going to be anytime this season.
