Impact Tatis will start in right field and lead things off for the Padres in his first major-league game since October 2021. He went ballistic during his eight-game tuneup with Triple-A El Paso, batting .515 with a 1.802 OPS, seven home runs, 15 RBI, two stolen bases and 11 runs scored across 39 plate appearances. Recovered from wrist and shoulder surgeries and having served out an 80-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs, the 24-year-old can now finally reclaim his place as one of the most productive position players in the sport.
