Rotowire
Bogaerts was scratched from Wednesday's lineup versus the Nationals due to left shoulder soreness.

Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Excellent in Thursday's win
Rotowire
Bogaerts went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and three total runs scored in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.
Bogaerts has at least one extra-base hit in four of his last five games, but the homer was his first since May 14 versus the Angels. The shortstop is batting just .235 (16-for-68) in June, which is right in line with his .239 average for the season. He also hasn't provided much power with a .653 OPS while adding four homers, 28 RBI, 32 runs scored, 14 doubles and 13 stolen bases over 73 contests. At his current pace, Bogaerts is in danger of missing the 10-homer mark for the first time since 2015.

Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Racks up three hits in win
Rotowire
Bogaerts went 3-for-5 with two RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 11-1 win over the Dodgers.
Bogaerts was recently hampered by a shoulder issue, which may partially explain his recent 5-for-35 (.143) stretch at the plate over his previous 10 games. He broke out of the slump with three singles in Tuesday's win, while also notching his first RBI since May 27. The shortstop continues to hover between .230 and .250 with his batting average -- Tuesday's effort put him at .240 on the year. He's added a meager .649 OPS, three home runs, 13 stolen bases, 23 RBI and 27 runs scored across 65 contests this season.

Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Sitting down Thursday
Rotowire
Bogaerts (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against San Francisco.
Bogaerts exited Wednesday's 6-5 loss early after experiencing soreness in his left shoulder -- the same one he fractured last season. Though he'll stay on the bench for Thursday's afternoon contest, the Padres appear to be viewing Bogaerts as day-to-day heading into this weekend's series in Milwaukee. Jose Iglesias will fill in as San Diego's shortstop Thursday and could continue to start if Bogaerts misses any additional games.
