PT TOMORROW: NL West—San Diego's bats still asleep

San Diego Padres

Much of the San Diego lineup has been struggling in a big way this season, and that's continued to be the case in May. The Padres currently have five players on their roster hitting near or below the Mendoza line over the last 30 days: Everth Cabrera (SS, SD), Yasmani Grandal (C, SD), Jedd Gyorko (2B, SD), and Will Venable (OF, SD). Is there any playing time at risk?
