San Diego Padres catcher Kyle Higashioka received a replica of the Congressional Gold Medal awarded to his grandfather's World War II unit Monday during a ceremony at the National Museum of the United States Army.
Lively allowed a two-run double to Kyle Higashioka in the second inning to account for the only real damage he allowed on the day. He didn't get many swings and misses with just an 11 percent whiff rate and 25 percent CSW, but he kept the Padres off the barrel of the bat and avoided lots of damage. He'll bring a 3.57 ERA into a game against the Phillies next week. He should be on fantasy benches for that one.
Higashioka accounted for both of the Padres' runs on Sunday and has been a solid fantasy catcher since taking over as the starter in San Diego. He won't produce a great batting average, but he does have 29 RBI and is an option for two-catcher formats.
Iglesias came on with a three-run lead to preserve in the ninth inning and he made sure that it stood up and the Braves went into the All-Star break on a high note. The 34-year-old right-hander got Kyle Higashioka on a swinging third strike, David Peralta on a line drive to center and Jurickson Profar on a line drive to right to end it. Iglesias heads into the All-Star break with a 2.02 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and a 31/7 K/BB ratio over 35 2/3 innings to go with 22 saves and one victory.
It's understandable that the Padres started hot-hitting Kyle Higashioka over Campusano in three of the previous four games, but they're using Brett Sullivan over him tonight. It makes one wonder why they brought Campusano back from his rehab stint so quickly, especially since he was just 2-for-15 in four games in A-ball before being activated. He does have one option year left, so if the Padres intend to stay on this path, they might want to send him down to get steady at-bats for a few weeks.
